The most interesting part was the beginning when I recognized the fencing on the River Irwell and I said to myself 'Oh that's by the Cathedral' then the camera panned around to show the Cathedral and then I recognised the Tib Street car park...
I used to think it was a snooze fest as well but it's certainly grown on me in the years since.

It was one of those films that stuck with me for whatever reason when allegedly films i enjoyed more never did. All told there isn't much zombie action or much in the way of gore but it's the atmosphere that i like, that and Arthur Kennedy, a terrific old school western actor who i'm sure had no idea what he was letting himself in for.
