Review of The Earth Dies Screaming (1964) by Brian S — 06 Oct 2009
Pretty thin on story but Terence Fisher does his best to make a good film out of it. This one had to of had some kind of influence on Romero and Russo when they wrote Night Of The Living Dead together.
The Earth Dies Screaming has some truly great and creepy moments and does a fine job delivering an apocalyptic feel. Lots of dead scattered bodies fill the streets. And some of the best moments come when the Alien robots are on patrol.
The reanimated dead look creepy as hell with their bulging gray eyes! There never is a real explanation for their visit, but then again why do we always feel there should be one!? This is a fine film and it definatly made for a good late evening Autumn movie!
