Admirable film.

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

Halloween, some kids break into the local witch museum to steal some stuff from centuries ago. For fun they go to the cemetery were they open a manuscript and are reading a spell without knowing it. Guess what, it's midnight hour, the demons arise! Zombietown it will be. And of course the legend of the witch comes alive. So far the story of this unfindable movie. When there is a version that pops up on the Net on VHS or even on (official) DVD it goes for more than 100 Euro's or even Dollars. Typical for the movies from that era they were released in several countries mostly with several titles. When you are into horror and a real freak you know you sometime have to do some research about the other titles and guess what. You can obtain this movie for less than 20 euro's but with his second title Return of the Living Zombies. If you do a bit of research you can still catch it on the X Rated Kult label. People into horror will know the label, they come in collectible hard boxes with beautiful artwork. Anyway, is it worth searching? Yes and no. Yes because it's an OOP, no because it isn't quite a real horror. The most important thing is the relationship between a human and a zombie. Still, people are searching this flick due the presence of Kevin McCarthy (invasion of the body snatchers main lead from 1956). The blood never flows in a disgusting way. There isn't any gore or nudity (escential for that era). In fact it is one to see with the whole family on Halloween night. Around the midnight hour...

We loved this movie also. We taped it and I basically raised my kids on it. They would watch it all the time and I don't ever remember it being played again, too bad. I think it is a great and fund Halloween movie that should be played every year during that holiday. I babysit kids and even they were raised on it and loved it every time they always say let's watch the Halloween movie. That is also how my children learned the many old songs from the 60's and 70's that were heard in the movie even though American Graffiti wasn't a Halloween movie it did remind me if because of the all the great music. I would recommend that you rent it, buy it, whatever, but you've got to see it.

This was a really good Halloween movie that pretty much anyone could watch and enjoy. It is quite a few steps above todays weak plot, whack 'em and hack 'em Halloween movies and all their predictable "don't open that door" scare scenes. It offers something for everyone; some comedy, teen romance, a couple of scares and a great musical scene reminiscent of Michale Jackson's Thriller near the end of the movie. It should be a cult movie. I would watch it every Halloween. I look for it every year around this time, but in recent years have been very disappointed that it has not been on. There is a good cast, with Lavar Burton in one of the starring roles.

I've seen this movie several times, and would like to say to this day it still remains one of my favorites. I like it so much because I love vampires and things like that. It was also the first so called vampire movie that made me laugh and had a real point behind it. I would like for my kids to see it before they start thinking their mom is a head case (you know talking about a movie that doesn't exist). I would like to buy it (so I can watch over & over), but can't find it anywhere. And believe me I have looked everywhere I could think of. Most people I ask look at me like I have stripes on my face. Can anyone help me find it????
