"The South Shall Rise Again...And Again...".

Keith of The Unknown Movies page said to me he'd be surprised if I don't swear my way through this review. Well, I won't, but that's not to say I don't feel like it.

Troma went and released this 1982 Baltimore-shot loser five years after it was made, and damned if it should've stayed unreleased.

A bunch of weakly written idiots who spout plentyful lame lines of dialogue (such as one character saying to her blind sister, "since mom and dad died you have to learn to do things yourself") are off on a hunting trip only to stumble upon a graveyard filled with confederate soldiers. Well just you guess what happens when said hunter swipes a flag from one of the graves. Yep, the South does rise again in what could only be termed as totally NOT historically accurate costumes and bad make-up/Halloween masks.

Where does one begin tearing this awful film a new one? I think it'd be best just to mention certain moments that struck me as "really pathetic": when our hunter is doing an obviously padded search of the graveyard and thoughtfully rubs his chin in a "hmmm" kind of way while looking at a gravestone, the entire explanation about how "you can take anything from the dead except their pain" speech, the fact one character continually proclaims how she hates bugs, the fact halfway through there's nary a zombie in sight, why the "costumes" look more like hillbilly get-ups than Civil War soldiers, the entire shotgun head blast scenes, how it's odd that the blind girl can walk very easily at nighttime, the fact the continuity constantly has scenes that have both daylight and nighttime in it, the model car doused with lighter fluid scene and the pre-requisite "gut munching" moments.

And yet this is another zombie movie where the "shoot in the head" theory goes out the window. To think that director Malanowski made the similarly themed Night Of Horror a year before.
