Not that bad., June 7, 2004
This review is from: Dead Don't Die [VHS] (VHS Tape)
I love zombie movies and in that case, this one is disappointing. Not your typical zombies. Aside from a couple, these act normal, talk, and aren't too interested in eating brains. I've seen some horrible b-movies that drag forever and this one isn't one of those. It is 75 minutes long and, to me, was entertaining. The story is puzzling and makes you shake your head. Some of the images and scenes are just haunting in the lack of people in this old big city. If this was seen in theaters, I'm sure there are a few moments that would make the audience jump. It's not a fantastic movie by any sense of the imagination, but it's not as bad as the two previous reviewers make it sound.

great tv horror film, October 20, 2009
This review is from: Dead Don't Die [VHS] (VHS Tape)
The Dead don't Die is a very well made horror film from a time when television made entertaining and horrifying shows.
Written by the great Robert Bloch(Psycho) and directed with much atmosphere and dread by Curtis Harrington.The plot concerns George Hamilton playing a man in the depression era thirties trying to clear his brother of murder and entering the world of voodoo .Those who posted that they don't like this film based it on the fact its not a gut muncher and filled with gore,and they are right.What it does have that those generally don't is a serious and skillful handling of a good script and a talented cast with some genuinely terrifying moments.
This movie should be on DVD,but until then VHS will have to do.
This film is in the vein of the Norliss Tapes,Horror at 37,000 feet, Fear No Evil and Ritual of Evil starring Louis Jordan.
Highly Recommended.
