The Ghost Breakers - Enjoyable comedy chiller stars Bob Hope as a radio show host who investigates a haunted Cuban castle. Only one zombie here but he's pretty creepy.

Mutant - Bo Hopkins and Wings Hauser headline this shocker about a small Southern town where people are turning into crazed ghouls thanks to an illegal chemical dump. If it sounds familiar, it is, but with Bo and Wings, what more do you want?

Neon Maniacs - Dumb eighties horror outing finds the citizens of San Francisco terrorized by costumed ghouls and monsters who live under the Golden Gate Bridge. Marginal at best as a zombie movie so save this for when you're really desperate for an undead fix. The best thing about it was the Mister Miracle cameo.

Devil Story - Rare - and quite awful - bit of Eurohorror nonsense. A woman vacationing in the countryside is menaced in order by a deformed maniac and his psychotic mother, a demonic horse, and a mummy and his undead bride. Schizophrenic film isn't quite sure what subgenre it wants to inhabit and the terrible editing doesn't help. Still, it's not everyday you see ships erupting from cliffsides and mummies stomping out the guts of their victims. Hardly any zombie action though. Trash fans should love it.

Dark Echoes - The residents of a lakeside Austrian village are stalked by the zombified captain of a ship that sank in the lake many years before. Fine location shooting takes your mind off the fact that there's only one zombie here and he runs awfully late.
