Zombie Holocaust (1980)

Starring: Donal O'Brien
Director: Marino Girolami

Premise:
An archeologist team searches for a tribe in order to get answers for a symbol. It turns out the tribe are cannibals.

My Take:
A movie that mixes the standard cannibal plot of the era and throws in a dash of Hatian zombie lore and a mad scientist. Those intriguing ingredients dont come together well in this particular case. It's a uneven flick with loads of gore and splatter. You'll find far better "Italian cannibal" movies out there.

Rating: Warning
