 The Plague Of The Zombies (1966)  From IMDB: Young workers are dying because of a mysterious epidemic in a little village in Cornwall. Doctor Thompson is helpless and asks professor James Forbes for help. The professor and his daughter Sylvia travel to Thomson. Terrible things happen soon, beyond imagination or reality. Dead people are seen near an old, unused mine. Late people seem to live suddenly. Professor Forbes presumes that black magic is involved and someone has extraordinary power. He doesn't know how close he is: the dead become alive because of a magic voodoo-ritual, and so they must serve their master as mindless zombies... If there's a Hammer movie that showcases the studios unique clash of Horror and quaint Englishness it's this one. Voodoo rituals and Haitian zombies meet the Cornish tin mining industry and well spoken doctors.  |

Now this is one of my favourite Hammers. It simply oozes atmosphere and the zombies are actually quite frightening! The scene with the zombies rising from their graves makes me wonder if this wasn't the inspiration for similar scenes in the Blind Dead movies. I also can't wait for this to hit BD!

I think over the years this has become my favourite Hammer film. The scene where they wait for the Doctor's wife to rise is one of my favourites of all time. Oh, and it has Michael Ripper as a good old fashioned copper too. What more could you want? Demoncrat and Prince_Vajda like this. |

This is due to arrive tommorow. Actualy, considering it's half term I may have a double bill. Any suggestions on what I should watch it with? Sam@Cult Labs likes this.

I pre-ordered the BD of The Reptile just the other day. Guess I'll hold off the double bill until that arrives then.
