Peelers
A small town strip club owner must defend her bar, her strippers and her life when violent infected patrons show up on the final closing night and all hell breaks loose.
Why it matters
A grimy grindhouse mashup where zombie infection meets the seedy glow of a small-town strip club, peeling back genre layers with unapologetic grit.
- Practical gore effects deliver the kind of visceral body horror that recalls early KNB work—late-night cable carnage with a DIY edge.
- A rare horror setting spotlighting strippers as lead survivors, flipping exploitation tropes into a raw, feminist survival story.
- Fans of contagion and quarantine horror will appreciate its claustrophobic final-night lockdown vibe, echoing films like *The Crazies* and *Cabin Fever*.
- Not perfect—some pacing stumbles and tonal unevenness—but the film’s rough edges amplify its cult grindhouse charm.
