The Plague of Zombies

The Plague of Zombies is a 1966 Hammer Films horror film. Influential in the genre, it's worth seeing for that reason alone; but it's also interesting in and of itself. It takes place in the Cornish countryside, where the local squire doesn't want any of the spate of recent deaths looked into. It seems he has plans bwahaha.



Moria praises the effects and points at the political subtext. 1000 Misspent Hours says, "...zombie movies didn’t come a whole lot better than this before George Romero arrived on the scene".

Classic-Horror.com gives it a positive review and says, "Don't miss this one." Rotten Tomatoes has a critics rating of 78%.

    I love your sense of humor and your ability to find all these horror films during October. It must be a blast at your place on Halloween!

      lol I'm the only horror watcher here. I do love Halloween. I'm putting together a witch costume to wear for an event at the park this weekend. That'll be fun :)
