Most people of a certain age probably know this as a Rob Zombie song but before it was that it was a French Jean Rollin zombie flick. Rollin, who was sort of the French version of Jess Franco, took his stab at the living dead genre here and came up with something pretty unique and like most all of his films it incorporates that dreamlike quality that gives it that supernatural feel.
It seems that some folks decide to dump chemical waste barrels right next to a corpse-filled catacombs and during an earthquake our title character springs back to life. She's a pretty strange example of a zombie since she mainly just pokes people in the neck with her long fingernails and drinks their blood (one dude even gets the ol' Moe Howard eye-gouge special!) There is also some flesh-munching if you enjoy that sort of thing. None of these people return to form an army of the undead as usually happens in these types of films and instead our zombie gal gets an old friend to help her get victims to snack on. While some people might find the pace a little weird in Rollins films this one moves along pretty well and there's plenty of gore and ample euro-nudity on display throughout which helps.
There was an extra gory French semi-sequel in '87 called REVENGE OF THE LIVING DEAD GIRLS but I don't recall it being very good besides the gore-content.
This is more of a collection of death scenes than any sort of an actual trailer:
Revenge Of The Living Dead Girls isn't all that bad. It is about as trashy as they come. It even sports a nice abortion scene.
ReplyDeleteI remember it being pretty shitty and topping everything off with a total cop-out of an ending but I haven't seen it in a while.
ReplyDeleteYeah its not a great movie but it sleazy enough for a mongoloid like yourself to enjoy
