Cheesy, gory fun. Zombie nuts will love this: the gore is plentiful and there’s a fair amount of tits. Not the best film-making I’ve ever seen, but a variety of locations and the aforementioned surplus of gore makes for a very entertaining movie.
A pretty cheesy Italian zombie-schlock in the vein of “Dawn Of The Dead” and “Zombi 2″. It’s clearly one of the most unoriginal and unimaginative from that decade (large parts of the “Dawn Of The Dead”-soundtrack and lots of stock footage from “La Vallée” were used in here), but surprisingly it’s still pretty fun.
The acting is quite poor, many of the characters are annoying as hell, the dialogue is awfully bad, the script is badly paced/written and the story is crap. Yet, it’s full of really glorious gore (eyeball gouging, loads of gut-eating and ripping off extremities), decent zombies and nice atmosphere, plus: the ‘stolen’ score fits in perfectly.
Im a sucker for zombie movies but I love Italian Horror so this one is a must see. Nature and documentary footage included free of charge.
