Zombie Holocaust

Zombie Holocaust (1979)
Director: Marino Girolami
Starring: Ian McCulloch, Alexandra Delli Colli
Personal Rating: 5/5

"Following the success of Zombie (aka. Zombi 2) and Cannibal Holocaust in 1979, producer Fabrizio De Angelis came up with the idea of cashing in on the subjects at the same time. By taking the basic plot of Zombi 2 and adding elements of cannibal films, Zombie Holocaust was born. The film starts off in New York, where a hospital worker is found to have been devouring bodies in the morgue. It turns out that he was originally a native of one of the Moluccan Islands, and similar corpse mutilations have occurred in other city hospitals, where immigrants from this region are also working. Led by Dr. Peter Chandler (Ian McCulloch), an expedition is organized to the islands to find out the reason behind the terrible happenings. However, on the Moluccas the crew are soon hunted by cannibals and zombies, the latter being created by the sinister Dr. Obrero who is experimenting with corpses. Lori (Alexandra Delli Colli), an attractive lady in the expedition team, is accepted as queen of the cannibals, and sends them off against the mad scientist and his zombie army."
