Island of the Living Dead is an awesome zombie film that reminds me of those 80s zombies flicks everyone knows and loves.

Plot: A group of scientists end up on an uncharted island but they are out alone. All of the people who once inhabited the island have now be come the living dead and a hungry for flesh. From there its a struggle for survival for the group.

Acting: The film was dubbed so its hard to tell if the acting is good or not but, all in all, the whole cast was pretty convincing. The two standouts are Yvette Yzonne and Ydalia Suaraz. They are true beauties.

Directing: Bruno Mattei does a wonderful job here. This was shot on high end digital video and looks very professional.

Overall: An awesome zombie flick. Feels like the 1980s again.

i went into this movie with high hopes. i had heard a lot about it and most of it was good. what i ended up with was a so-so Italian horror film.

the plot is simple. i didn't like the whole ham radio aspect, thought it was slightly cheesy. the acting was OK for the most part. i love Mary sellers and she does a great job. Lara Wendel got on my nerves with her accent. they should have gotten a better actress for the lead.

the pacing was off and the cast was hit or miss. Lenzi's direction was much better in black demons in my opinion.

too much going on in one film.

not what i expected but pretty OK film.
