la muerte viviente aka . isle of the living dead aka . snake people of 1971 and be an extremely trashy and unintentionally hilarious movie and and one of the last movie of the great horror icon boris karloff . i have utmost respect for director jack hill for movie like his great blaxploitation classic coffy star pam grier . snake people and direct by hill and juan ibanez and however and be one of these movie that be so bad theyre actually pretty good . i be a big fan of trashy b horror flick and but the only two reason why i enjoy snake people be boris karloff and who play a rather small role in this and and the movie unintentional fun value . the tropical island korbai be reign by a bizarre voodoo cult . the cult unholy priest and amongst them a creepy midget and a scary snake dancer and sacrifice beautiful local girl to their occult deity damballah . the girl and who volunteer a sacrifice in order to achieve eternal life and be then resurrect from the dead a mindless zombie . determine to put an end and to these ritual and that be ignore by the local police and captain pierre labesch come to the island . he ask the island richest landowner and carl van molder ( boris karloff ) for help . in the meanwhile and van molder niece and who come to the island to fight alcoholism and befriend a local police lieutenant . a a horror movie and snake people fail entirely . a an unintentional comedy and however and it be hilarious . the dialogue be extremely poor ( and therefore extremely hilarious ) and apart from karloff and the acting be really bad too . the location be amateurish and the plot have huge hole and many logical error . while captain labesch and for example and be obviously french and and come to the island send by the government and other law enforcement officer of this government have english name . i laugh a lot when i saw this movie the first time and and i will definitely watch it again . don not expect any suspense and but watch this a the unintentional comedy it be and entertainment will be guarantee . negative .
