“Uncle Peckherhead” (* out of four) was a jarringly awful horror comedy about an underground punk band (David Bluvband, Ryan Conrath, Greg Maness, and others) who embark on their first tour but become encumbered by the title roadie (David Littleton) who turns out to be a flesh-eating zombie and they have to decide whether to continue creating music or fight for survival. With a title like that- you should know not to expect Oscar material but movie isn’t funny enough, gory enough, or even bad enough to carry any entertainment value for your buck. Not even the music is good or well-captured! For a story about a vampire/zombie masquerading as a rock star with more bite and conviction, read Anne Rice’s “Queen Of The Damned” instead.
