It is 1957, and all is still well with the world in the American town of Marlow. But not for long, because the good citizens of the tobacco-growing region are about to receive visitors from far and wide. They have sharp teeth - and are keen to wipe us out. Their latest achievement is supposed to help: an elixir that makes them immune to crosses. And, as a side effect, turns the bitten into sun-resistant zombie mercenaries. What else can save us? Lots of cigarettes, whisky and rock'n'roll, of course!
As if Ed Wood and Mel Brooks had directed a Troma movie together in the 50s! A loving parody of the B-movies of yesteryear in elegant black and white. With a Bela Lugosi revenant in the flesh. With plastic bats on thick wires and Playmobil spaceships. With quite drastic gore effects. With the most incredible brawl, er, kicking ever. And with a literally awesome cameo by Lloyd Kaufman. Irresistibly cult - have a tasty fag first!
