An Italian news reporter (Margit Evelyn Newton) and her crew land on the island in search of the story, quickly followed by a search-and-destroy mission of soldiers. From that point onward, highly unreal dialogue ("something eating you?") would classify the movie as a cult-camp favorite. When the mismatched or unmatched sequences in the film are combined with ugly color and moronic dialogue, it is difficult to tell whether the living-dead or brain-dead dominate the film. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi

Tim Brayton, Antagony & Ecstasy
More than any of its myriad names, the truest is one that has never, as far as I know, been given to it in any release in any country: That F---awful Bruno Mattei Zombie Flick.
