Duration: 85 minutes .

The zombie films in English fantasy is full of examples from the moment that terror is no longer a taboo subject and started a floral titles modo imparable. Si bien es verdad que en este sentido los italianos siempre nos han llevado la delantera no menos cierto es que escarbando en la filmografía patria encontramos algunos films realmente interesantes sobre el tema tanto en su vertiente "Romero" esto es, muertos que se arrastran por el mundo sin otro objetivo aparente que el de saciar su apetito de carne humana, como en su concepción haitiana (personas aparentemente muertas que a través de la magia negra o el vudú se convierten en esclavos de otra voluntad). En el primer caso tenemos el orgullo de contar con el que probablemente supone la mejor consecuencia del clásico del George A. Romero. Nos referimos, por supuesto a No profanar el sueño de los dead where Jorge Grau creates a work worthy, technically flawless only hampered by the bland leading couple (as opposed to the great Arthur Kennedy) and an extremely simplistic situational and environmental discourse. In its most romantic we The orgy of the dead that, despite lacking any orgy unfortunately, offered an interesting "remenber" the theme of zombies as slaves with no will in the service of a farmer's malevolent intentions, which immediate reference would be nice "The Plague of the Zombies" cooked in the factory Hammer just a few years earlier.

Out of these titles, a torrent of filthy films made much always under the sign of the urgency, with more enthusiasm than talent (sometimes without one or the other) and that can only be defended under nostalgic and sociological arguments. titles like "Rise of the Dead", "The fear comes from the grave" or the later "Invasion of the atomic zombies" are perfect examples of undeveloped film, made in haste and only animated for the interesting booths you getting any nonsense made to use.

In a compromise, short of the quality of the first two films discussed, but with enough points of interest to save the "burning" ( to the same extent as Amadis of Gaul or white strap escaped the fire fed by the many books of chivalry of Don Alonso Quijano ) appears this small, strange and unknown film production with Ecuador. Being forgotten, not even in either most popular anthologies Jesus Palacios on the subject (and Goremanía Zombie Metro) or "Mad doctors" of that Midons mythical editorial in the 90's was devoted to post some interesting fantastic subject dictionaries and / or terrifying. And it is only necessary (and conscientious) fastástico Film and English terror: 1900-1983 orchestrated by Carlos Aguilar and the issue of Quatermass 4-5 dedicated is mentioned English Fantasy Film , yes, without giving further comments.

So it's no wonder that today goes unnoticed title that could be considered just as an apocryphal version of the story of Lovecraft "Herbert West , rescuer" whose existence, surely knew the ever opportunistic Santiago Moncada, screenwriter of the film in question. The original story has several basic issues such as doctor's theory (which here goes by the name of laughable Frosta ) that it is possible to recover a corpse to life whenever it is cool enough through a serum is injected directly into the blood or the contempt for his theories receives from the scientific community forcing him to become an outlaw quasi, changing residence and name continuously until he found his bones in a remote area of \u200b\u200bEcuador where he can continue his "experiments" with relative ease. Along with these assumptions taken directly from the account of Lovecraft, his responsibilities included an "amour fou", which will result in some amazing situations for his courageous necrophiliac ruggedness. Even the use of music is strangely dissonant (that syrupy song about a dead body) giving to the whole psychotropic style, a dream vocation de qualité film already glimpsed in the pre-credits scene in which Dr . Frosta faces the inquisitorial trial of their peers for their activities of dubious morality and in which the protagonist is clipped on a black background listening to different sounds and voices that betray the presence of a court ever see.

Directed by former producer Manuel Cano (director and other oddity itself, bloody voodoo, which shares more than one point in common with this title) and despite his dismembered (so help me here the adjective better than ever) narrative structure, Marsh crows is a modest but curious contribution to the zombie genre, and it remains surprising that not have more followers given the truculence of their special effects whose results are powered by a photograph and deliberately staged by some disturbing Feist and locations within rural Ecuador (special mention of that swamp film's title, true mass grave for the remains of the failed experiments of the "Mad Doctor", an observatory from which the dead watch the movements of the protagonist in a disturbing drawings and alone justify , the viewing of the tape). Thus, still impressed by the unusual realism of the sequence of an autopsy on one victim, (stage feeding a black legend on the authenticity or otherwise of the body on the screen) and the unhealthy atmosphere which recreated on each tape the frames of the film,

Autopsy "real or first-Fx?

Dr. Frost is played by the gray and expressionless Ramiro Oliveros, actor who enjoyed great popularity until his inevitable eclipse from the mid 80's. Beside him stands the great Fernando Sancho who plays a police inspector conservative, macho, sardonic, capable of extensive breakfast off the severed hand of a victim and launch any irreverent joke while performing an autopsy. It is curious that both personalities, the doctor and the police, affect the narrative pace of the film, mellifluous and leaden in the scenes of Oliver, with nerve and a pleasant tone of Euro-thriller in those scenes where he appears funny police and his assistant.

While it is quite true that crows Marsh is far from being a good film (in fact, their needs are greater their virtues) does mean a curious contribution to the great English general and zombie genre in particular, a warning from the trash to us by the mare magnum of great games in Spain during the seventies. So I can only hope that you enjoy this title and recommend, if someone is more hungry for dead, the good companion blog Vermin, bottomless pit of titles which, in one way or another these macabre characters displayed instigators of the darkest fears and nightmares since the wake Bela Lugosi back in 1932 in the loving and a pioneer White Zombie .

Full Head Weave Prices

UN HOMBRE LOBO EN LA ABADÍA

Yes, as you read. The excellent web Berzano Abbey, dedicated to genre films and focusing primarily on those most marginalized filmographies (fantasy series B, spaghetti-western, euro-crime ...) has launched a dossier dedicated to the figure of Europe werewolf excellence, our longed Jacinto Molina, Paul Naschy alias.
Every Friday will offer the study of evidence of the bulging filmography Naschy, since those early days where the appearance was merely anecdotal until the last thing filmed just weeks before his death.

The prior of the Abadía, José Luis, alias braino, gathered for this company needed the cream of the critical bloggers who regularly visit their corner, in an effort to get a portrait of the creator of Waldemar Daninsky far away as possible from bias, bitter or jealous personal animosities, but also studies hagiographic bias and partial, in the belief that, probably in the middle we find the true value of man and filmmaker.

And since the titles which, in one way or another, has participated Jacinto Molina, are innumerable, the prior of the Abbey has had to dip also most modest of writers, as this tenant, to analyze the odd film.

Last Friday started this file, and could not do better, with a review of one of the best critics that swarm specialized blogs: the baroque, intense, colorful and knowledge Vastis Adrian Esbilla whose blog should be required reading for all those lovers of genre movies that want to step beyond the mere reading of contemplation. Adrian is responsible for the title is the first intervention Naschy some presence in the film: Fury of Johnny Kidd

your enjoyment. Personally I recommend saving each review. At the end Naschy have a vision, an extensive study on the actor and director (and probably humans) that it would like any of the publications so far have seen the light.

yourself warned everyone.
