Night of the Zombies

1981 · 78 min

A grimy, low-budget chiller that lurches between military mystery and flesh-eating shocks, more curious than frightening.

Directed by
Joel M. Reed
Genres
Horror
Starring
Jamie Gillis, Samantha Grey, Ryan Hilliard
Tagline
No one can survive this outpost from Hell...
Overview
Investigators search for soldiers' missing bodies, and hear unbelievable rumors about zombies. Dismissing those rumors they set out to investigate. After two men are found dead, CIA special-agent Nick Monroe is sent to flush out what are suspected to be deserters from the old U.S. Army Chemical Corps unit. Not to be confused with the 1980 Italian film of the same name (in USA).
