MCT:September 13, 2008Could have been a silent film...but than we would miss Bela's wonderfully evil/seductive voice.
The haunting music....the unworldly zombies and Lugosi's GREAT unreal presence take this above and beyond it's B Movie roots. Lugosi can convey evil with the raise of an eyebrow or the slight trace of a sly smile. One of my favorite movies of all time. OF ALL TIME. (Of course, I'm a Lugosi addict...and many may find it stilted and dated,due to the sloww pacing and the melodramatics of the other players...)
Trivia: Madge Bellamy was once a silent actress...and she died at an early age after a short life strife with scandle and tradgedy.)
Jack Pierce...the genuis responsible for all the classic Universal monster make-ups, went on loan to do the spooky zombies.
I went to a White Zombie concert here in Michigan,and a highlight was Bela's hypnotic eyes on a large screen behind the band as they were doing 'More Human than Human'! -
MCT:September 7, 2008You can see that the small budget was used well, to great effect. However, the film has literally not aged well , the copy I saw made little attempt to restore the soundtrack which meant that in some scenes the dialogue was obscured by pops and crackle.

MCT:July 6, 2008Effectively creeply. Zombies have permeated our film world so much that we take them for granted as flesh eating drones. They are far more creepy when seen as the reanimation of the dead as slaves. Once human, now souless. And why can't women look like they did back then?

While I fully ackowledge the cult worthiness of it all, I can't help but think it drags along a bit too much.

i loved this movie it is black and white bot its a masterpiece
bela lugosi plays Murder Legendre, a man who is expert in voodoo and witchcraft he has a group of zombie followers who aren't actually dead. its kind of like wes craven's The Serpent in the Rainbow but i prefer it
the ending is kind of sappy though -

This is a good story. A man wants a woman who is marrying someone else - what should he do about this? Yes, that's it, approach Bela Lugosi and get his assistance to turn her into a zombie for you.
Unfortunately the version I saw was quite bad quality but still a good film. -

I think this one hasn't aged well. Bela Lugosi is great but the rest of the movie wasn't up to his standard.

Low-budget movie making at it's best. Creepy images resonate and you can't beat that Lugosi S T A R E.

A fantastic film in the traditional zombie form. One of many films that inspired Rob Zombie and the inspiration for the name of the band of the same name. A must see for any zombie fan who wants to see what the originals were all about.

A potentially progressive film in that we sympathize the zombies through wishing for the girl to be free from her enslavement. Fascinating portrayal of whites and Haitians, where the least and most human are whites.
-

If Only, but then they Wouldn't LOVE you.. so WHAT WAS the point. Gee I wonder if this is where Rob Zombie got the name for the band! (honestly I forget)
-
MCT:August 10, 2007
The long zombie-cinema marriage started with this little and very interesting film. Lugosi plays once again a devilish man with a thick and menacing accent.
-

Flawed but atmospheric, White Zombie is the kind of gothic horror only the 1930s could produce. Bela Lugosi is excellent in his role, and the story is a charming tale of man set out to rescue the damsel in distress . . . but with zombies. Entertaining? I'd say so.

primo film di zombie della storia del cinema,ancora legato ai miti di haiti,molto distante dalla visione romero

This movie is low-budget movie making at it's very best. some creepy images really resonate and you can't beat the Lugosi S T A R E...

A nice little zombie thriller (though were talking voodo not the living dead). I whish it had been a bit longer to better explore the characters but its still effective.

These are Haitian zombies, not living dead zombies. A dated but still entertaining movie about a man who will go to any lengths to possess the woman he loves, even if he has to kill her. Bela Legosi is fantastic as Murder Legendre, the villianous zombie-maker.

Early zombie flick starring Bela Lugosi that really remains a creepy flick. Much different than the zombie movies of today but still has my props.
-
MCT:February 5, 2007
one of Bela Lugosi's best, establishing Zombies in a much different light to the more modern conciousness we all relate
-
MCT:January 27, 2007Before George A. Romero, this is what a zombie flick was. They were not rampaging cannibalistic homicidal corpses, they were simply the reanimated dead. And they weren't terribly interesting.
-
MCT:December 10, 2006Waste of TIME!! Very Weak movie, DO NOT WATCH, if you do end up watching it, side effects may include: Suicide, murder ramapages, road ramapage, any kinds of ways of harming yourself, and many others...
-

For it's time it is good. I love what they could get away with with in those days. Lugosi is a true artist and is the star of this early classic.
