Although the first was already working with short films and feature films after more than 20 years before this, Corpses is the first successful atomic and considered by many as "his debut, though ... I was more than half the race and only had about 7 years as director.

As its name suggests it is a film of horror and science fiction that exploits the "new" perspective than its predecessor in this genre Revenge of the zombie, created. History tells us this film is set in Columbia County as main characters have a gangster who was prosecuted and deported to Italy and now armed back a scientific discovery Dr. Steigg (the formula for radioactive walk the dead automatons who obey spoken commands and are connected to a console that allows visually follow their actions) to take revenge on all those he fell. His partner is Dr. Chet Walker with the police department and is taking the track to find the source of those murders about using Geiger counters.

Film Serie B but it would be easy to see and if we humor is entertaining. It has all the characteristics of the films of these issues at the moment: a short footage, still shots, a lot of dialogues, and as the scientific argument that states if it is too fanciful handles it so plausible. The pace is very fluid and that from the outset discover all their traps and then only focus on reaching that moment of confrontation between protagonist and antagonist, the picture is not bad and the action scenes are fairly decent (at this time the but I guess we will see grace in their time worked fine.)


Similarities with Revenge of the zombie ... the question German scientist, and manipulate these dead live like robots, although it is more controlled.

Differences ... if the other movie female gave the place a more friendly site, reflecting the social context, here is the opposite to the point of being "offensive" (not that much but if seen a tremendous machismo), in the conduct of Walker's wife, a good wife and housekeeper available to all whims and orders of her husband and her daughter's education, behavior and final joke of the wrist tomboy .


But ... what is important in the zombie genre is something that gives another twist, very good, and this is no longer, for the first time the stage is enveloped in tropical landscapes that African folklore, zombies are no longer slaves under white rule in life, slaves to death like zombies, no ... here we are in a city, civility, and no black zombies, but white Americans, neat and well dressed.
