Let Sleeping Coprses Lie. 1974.
Ray Lovelock and Christina Galbo are the young hippies in England travelling to London and discover the dead are coming back to life and try and convince the local authority who seem to not listen...typical though our police never do. A mix of italian, Spanish movie that is set in England, with the setting being mostly the country, cemetery and a hospital.
It does take a bit for the movie to go but even before all that the film is shrouded in a good dark atmosphere even with a pub that has a Owl perched in it's hallway. The main leads do have chemistry on screen and helps make the film work. The zombies aren't in a great big number and are revived by some sort of radiation and how to destroy them can be a bit creative without using guns. The make-up effects for this is kinda creative and probably influenced other directors when the Zombie genre was slowly building thanks to Romero and Fulci who gave us other zombie flicks to enjoy. May not be the best zombie flick made but certainly entertains a lot on the killing of a nurse.
