1966 the plague of the zombies

Not in the same league as, say, "The beyond" or "zombies", but it's decent entertainment anyways! The zombies are sporadic but they're pretty nasty when they actually do show. This was directed by John Gilling who along with Terence Fisher was very popular especially with fans of these films by Hammer Studios.

Was this review helpful? Plague of the Zombies offers up the voodoo brand as opposed the rotten diseased brand of zombies.

This was the one and only zombie movie that the British horror kings Hammer Films ever put out. John Gilling directs with style and flair in one of his minor masterpieces The Plague of the Zombies. A cool zombie flick, with a decent cast, gruesome special effects, good atmosphere...worth watching!

In this one the undead are almost tragic beings who are slaves to an evil human. "Plague" features an intelligent script, fine acting, solid photography and great atmosphere. Morrell is quite good and I think he should have been utilized more by the studio than he was. Then one night Alice leaves her home and ends up dead. At least for me. 5 out of 5 found this helpful. Though marred by a somewhat disappointing finale, the film remains a minor horror masterpiece and one of the scariest works that I've yet seen from the House of Hammer. I say this because I typically like most zombie movies.

Very well filmed, goodl acting and has some tremendous sequences, in particular the nightmare of zombies rising from their graves. Highly recommended fun, creepy and well acted. | Rating: 3/5 Any way you watch it, though, the film is a real winner.

First, the zombies looked a bit goofy. Creepy atmosphere and a good cast make this a fun film to view.

Hammer only made one foray into the zombie sub-genre with this film about a doctor and his daughter paying a visit to a former medical student who has written for help. It has wonderful acting, mystery, intrigue, a great plot, and, of course, scary zombies. Was this review helpful? I supposed that George Romero's movie was the first important one to explore the zombie theme, but now I realize that this 1966 Hammer's movie came first.

November 19, 2018 While the zombie make-up leaves something to be desired (by current standards), the script and story is quite good as is the acting.

Story is about a doctor named Sir John Forbes (Andre Morell) who receives a letter one day from a former pupil who is asking for help because people in his village are dying under strange circumstances. Ik denk dat de moderne, wereldoverheersende zombies van nu niet goed tot hun recht zouden komen in een productie uit de jaren zestig. No sooner do they arrive when another victim surfaces and it's quickly becomes evident that something far more sinister than medical problems is at work here.

There was a still from this movie that I remember scaring the life out of me as a young child, but also had me fascinated. At the request of Alice, Sir James Forbes (André Morell) arrives on the scene to investigate. | "The Plague of the Zombies" is also an excellent movie of the genre, and if the viewer pays attention, he or she will notice that it was made BEFORE the 1968 "The Night of the Living Dead". The Plague of Zombies is NOT the gore and blood fest type of horror we see today. Therefore George Romero's movie is not the first important horror film to explore the zombie theme, and this 1966 Hammer's movie came first. It's fun to summarize the plot to your friends when you're drunk (it's about zombies...mining TIN!) June 12, 2012

One of the numerous 'period' horror movies to come out of Hammer Film Productions in the late '50s and '60s, "Plague of the Zombies" is pretty typical of the genre (excepting the absence of perennials Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee).

The other thing I noticed was that some of the acting was a bit mediocre at times. Horror
