Movie Reviews

Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 9/10 by Dennis SchwartzYou should beware that it's a Sam Katzman production, someone known for producing schlock.
Reel Film Reviews - 3/10 by David Nusair...typically dull and entirely forgettable...
User Review - 8/10 by Richard Halong with tartu and the praying mantis this is another from the old horror group that cheer you up endlessly, i love how the heroes brylcreem just doesnt work at all and hold his hair in place in the fight scenes. classic stuff
User Review - 6/10 by Russell GThe Zombies are crap, little more then actors with no make up wandering about with their arms sticking out. Actually, that's exactly how the Zombies are depicted. There's a very goofy plot about lost diamonds that don't really help either. somehow though, it has a decent enough if familiar atmosphere to keep you interested.
User Review - 6/10 by Joe SA team of divers attempt to salvage the treasure buried beneath the waves off the coast of Africa. Zombies protect this treasure. The woman who lives on the coast near the wreck has a direct connection to the shipwreck and lets the divers stay at her place, yet warns them of the undead. There is an underwater zombie fight ala Zombie 2. If you want to see all earlier zombie films, dont miss this one.
User Review - 6/10 by David PWhen I saw the Edward Cahn directed this I had to watch it. I was not disappointed with this horribly awful B-movie fun classic.

User Review - 6/10 by Brian Ssilly 50's zombies before they ate people. just wanted to kill people.
User Review - 4/10 by Staci WA group of callous treasure hunters and the residents of an isolated African farm are beset by swimming zombies protecting a treasure trove of cursed diamonds. While watching "Zombies of Mora Tau" my mind repeatedly wandered to the work of another director who was turning out cheap horror movies in the 1950: Edward D. Wood. This is film is not that much better than "Bride of the Monster", making it one of many bits of evidence that whoever first decided it was cute to slander Wood with the "worst filmmaker ever" label was an ignorant twat. "Zombies of Mora Tau" is a film with a weak script being performed by a cast who are actors in the sense they can hit their marks and deliver their lines but who otherwise seem fairly free of any actual talent for acting. It further suffers from the fact that the costume designers or make-up artists didn't have the creativity to make the zombies look even halfway interesting--even "White Zombie", which is borrowed from/paid homage to on a couple of occassions here, did a far better job at this, way back at the dawn of the zombie movie genre--and it didn't have the budget to actually make the cool idea of underwater zombie attacks look believable. This is one of those movies that is brimming with potential, but it remains nearly entirely unrealized because of the incompetence of the filmmakers and the platry budget they had to work with. Almost despite itself, the film manages to mount a number of creepy moments, such as when the slutty femme-fatale wife of the captain of the salvage ship (played by Allison Hayes) rises from the dead as a zombie and then sets about to kill her former colleagues, including her husband. However, even the creepiest moment in the film is marred by cheapness and bad acting. As bad as I think this movie is, I did keep watching it and not because I was wondering if it could get any worse. No, in this instance, I kept hoping it would get better, because I kept thinking, "Wow... this could be a really scary scene if there was some more blood here" or "Good actors could have made this actually seem as intense as it's supposed to be" and so on. I'm sure anyone who likes zombie movies wil have a similar reaction when viewing this film. It is so full of what-could-have-been material that it will feed the imagination of any but the most braindead horror fan. This quality, coupled with the laughably bad exectution of just about everything present on screen, makes it a great movie to consider for inclusion in a Bad Movie Night. It's a shame that the film industry only seems interested in remaking movies that were already good to begin with. If there's a movie that deserves to be remade, it's "Zombies of Mora Tau". You wouldn't even need a new script. With a few minor tweaks and a modern approach to executing the story, the existing script would be the perfect foundation for a kick-ass film. (It would need a enough of a budget for decent diving and underwater scenes, though. Just imagine: "Into the Blue" with zombies! How cool would THAT be?!) Zombies of Mora Tau (aka "The Dead That Walk") Starring: Gregg Palmer, Autumn Russell, Allison Hayes, Joel Ashley, Marjorie Eaton, Morris Ankrum, and Gene Roth Director: Edward L. Cahn
User Review - 2/10 by Woody WJust bad, just plain old bad. Zombies after diamonds that are in a sunken ship that apparently they can just walk right underwater to get them, but don't. Instead they try to kill (while they walk underwater) the men trying to get the diamonds in diving suites. Then when the men get the diamonds, they try to take them again, until the wife of one of the zombie sailors drops them off the boat dock into the water again. Then, they magically disappear into dust. Not even fun in a bad movie way, with one exception. One of the diamond hunters wife becomes a zombie (don't ask how), and in trying to stop her from killing some crew members, one of them beans her in the head with a candelabra, complete with a 'boink' sound -- remember bullets don't kill zombies, so why not bean them with stuff ;)
