Here's a piece of crap I once saw in the late 80's. It's about submarine Nazi Zombies, which is why I'm calling it a piece of crap. An excursion with a compliment full of annoying people runs across a derelict ship and end up making landfall on a deserted island. But it's not REALLY deserted....Peter Cushing's there, just hanging out in a deserted hotel. After telling him about the derelict ship, he freaks out and investigates. Turns how he knows that ship and what it means: Island Nazi Zombies. Pretty soon they start picking off the group one by one in the most unexciting ways possible and I'm just as bored now as I was 30 years ago.
This isn't scary. This is NEVER scary. |
Not very gory, not very scary, really slow moving. Mostly spooky music with the monsters moving slowly, killing people very boringly. The '80s made a tremendous impact on horror films, and I'm starting to see why. After seeing several of these lackluster films from the '70s, it needed a change, and the argument could be made that it was spearheaded with 1978's Halloween.
Monday: A franchise so large, it accounts for 1/3rd of this years movie picks...
