Viewing Notes

It’s been a long time since I first saw this, so only small portions were familiar. Some great, bloody practical effects for the zombies and kill scenes combined with a bitter, fascist performance by Arthur Kennedy as the police chief make for some fun. Even though it’s shot in England, it does have a distinctly Spanish feel to it.
