Cast & Crew

 * Tina Bristol
 * Maria Chesterton
 * Producer: Solomon Richards

Synopsis
"Eating brains in the land of the brainless"

"Voted worst movie of 1981. Vinewood Zombies is so awful that it's awesome. The premise: Pop music has awoken the dead and they're waging war on Vinewood. The stars: A cast of blonde, beautiful (and presumably very cheap) unknowns who always seem to get attacked by zombies while topless. The twist: Zombies are hungry for flesh but hate the taste of silicone. So who can save the day? Porn stars with enormous fake breasts. Genius. Nobody knows quite why this steaming Solomon Richards turd has floated for so long in the toilet bowl of popular culture. Maybe it taps into the common fantasy we all have of subjecting the residents of Rockford Hills to the most horrendous deaths imaginable. Or maybe we just never tire of seeing sluts in bikinis splatter brains on the sidewalk..."

Clothing
In the Freemode Events Update for Grand Theft Auto Online, a Vinewood Zombie T-Shirt was obtainable if the players logged on GTA Online during September 18th, 2015.

There is also another, more detailed, shirt that was available to people who watched the Halloween Surprise livestream. Currently, only 10 normal players own the shirt, but according to Rockstar, more of the shirts will be given out during future livestreams. This was also the introduction of the GTA Online T-Shirt Cannon feature.

Influence

 * Vinewood Zombie is possibly a parody of the 1978 action/horror film Dawn of the Dead, while the concept of zombies eating brains is similar to the 1985 comedy/horror film The Return of the Living Dead. But poster and name parodied American Zombie film released in 2007. It is also a parody of low-budget B and Z movies as well as "So bad its good" flicks. The poster is also very similar to the British VHS cover of the Italian 1980 zombie movie Zombi 2, released as Zombie Flesh Eaters in the UK.
 * The font color and style might be a reference to Red Dead Redemption: Undead Nightmare, another Rockstar game.

Trivia

 * On Vinewood Boulevard, Graham is a soapboxer who cosplays as "the Vinewood Zombie", which he named after this movie.
 * There is a Vinewood Zombie poster in Jimmy De Santa's bedroom.
