i would hear a lot of bad thing about this film before see it and but think all the negative comment be probably down to the film low budget and poor act both of which i can deal with when it come to zombie film . however and what i do not count on be this film be really and really bore while if there one thing you can count on from low budget zombie and it gore and entertainment but unfortunately and this film have neither . i be quite surprised and because the previous two horror film i have see from director bob clark deathdream and black christmas be both highly inventive and entertaining film and but child shouldn not play with dead thing just doesn not cut it . the plot line follow a group of young adult that travel to a burial island in order to mess about with ritual to bring the dead back to life . however and they soon learn that play with thing they do not understand be a really stupid idea when their ritual actually bring the dead back to life and the corps of the island return to feast on their blood . the plots sound like it could lead to a decent flick and but what i do not mention be that the interesting part do not start until the final twenty minute while and a this be a ninety minute movie and i be sure you can guess that this isn not a good thing . the opening hour and ten minute be pad out with poor acting and even bad character . i can understand set up a situation so that the horror be more potent once it come along while but please and if youre go to spend so long on it and you have really get to make it interest . all of the character in the film be over the top and annoying and and personally i just want the zombie to hurry up and eat them . the film be not without it merit and however and a the atmosphere be a standout . lucio fulci would show seven year later how an isolated island and flesh eating zombie can blend well while but bob clark already do it with this film . the direction isn not bad either and but it bring down by poor make up effect and a distinct lack of blood and which isn not likely to please fan of zombie movie . overall and i really can not recommend this film while but if youre a hardcore zombie fanatic and you may get a kick out of it .
