Review of Night of the Zombies (1980) by Michael W — 25 Apr 2007
Well what can I say about this Bruno Mattei (the master of the nun/naziploitation movies) movie! The acting is so horrible that u only will get a good laugh and entertaining movie for the next 95 min. This movie follow the same path as all other zombie movies, which is a (this time coming from) nuclear plant's accident emanating toxic gazes turning the natives and some workers as flesh eating ghouls.
the zombies look goes from bad (blue face) to pretty good. the gore is like all Italian movie pretty great and realistic (done by maestro Giannetto de' Rossi who did fx for lotsa Italian horror), there's also plenty of action, nudity (yay), some unintentional humor (soldier dancing ballet anyone!), all the key element to create an entertaining movie.
My only negative point is the use of stock footage and sometime the same footage is use over and over again). The first 30 and last 30 min are the greatest and most brutal of the movie! (Recommend to ppl who like Nightmare City).
