Revenge of the Zombies (1943). 1h 1m | Approved

“A pretty ordinary cheapie from Monogram Studios that begins with some promising atmosphere and visual style, but ultimately deteriorates with a lot of talk and some lame attempts at comic relief by black funny-man Mantan Moreland, whou0026#39;s not so humorous this time around.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eA very youthful John Carradine plays it surprisingly low-key as an unconvincing Nazi scientist trying to create an army of non-scary zombies to fight for the Germans. He even turns his own wife into one of them, the fiend. These living dead sleepwalkers are more like what youu0026#39;d call the u0026quot;marching deadu0026quot; as they step about in silly and perfect militaristic formation, like mindless robots. Those viewers unfamiliar with u0026quot;pre-Romerou0026quot; zombie movies are bound to be left especially stumped.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003e** out of ****”
