My first exposure to the Blind Dead was on Elvira's show back in the 80s. Remember thinking how cool the slo-mo shots looked of the Templars riding across the plain looked. It wasn't until many years later that I "rediscovered" the series when it was released on dvd.
Personally, I think the series really holds up really well over time, more than any other zombie films, Romero's included. Credit for which I believe is due in no small part to de Ossorio terrific use of color and atmosphere, especially on the Ghost Galleon where I think he did an outstanding job creating what I maintain was the "creakiest" sounding film ever made.
So any fans of the series here?
