Zombie Lake Movie Review

Posted by:

Yes! I have added another foreign Zombie movie, zombie lake. This movie is hated and loved by many! The most terrifying zombie massacre ever to come to the screen! In a small lakeside town in the French countryside, young women are disappearing without a trace. The superstitious locals blame "The Lake of Ghosts," but the town's mayor (Howard Vernon) seems reluctant, or powerless, to take any action. When another girl is found with her throat ripped out, a Paris reporter begins to uncover the deadly secrets of the lake and the dead, green-faced Nazis who are aroused to action!

Ok so I am sure that their are many people groaning at this point about a movie with zombie nazis but depending on who you ask the movie kicks major ass. So with that I have two perspectives for you. You can then decide on your own.

This movie has honestly got to be one of the most horrifying, gruesome movies of all time. Despite what other reviewers may say about this movie, it is very graphic and very scary. The so-called fake make-up that the zombie's wear looked like real skin coming off and that gave me the jitters all over!

What I think had me staying up all night with my teddy bear and night light on was seeing the zombies come out and take the girls in the lake and then even showing underwater shots of their lake that was obviously filmed in a spooky dooky 4 ft. deep pool!! I truly don't see how anyone couldn't have enjoyed this film because it really makes your heart skip a few beats and then some.

If you want a terrifying zombie film with the most realistic-looking zombies and an amazingly intricate and well-developed plot, look no further. This movie will leave you scarred with a phobia for lakes and swamps for as long as you live as it has done to me!

Let's go back to 1986, when i was like 10 years old and me and my friends used to have a ritual that every saturday morning, instead of watching stupid cartoons, we would get on our BMX's and go to the local video store and rent like 4 to 5 videos(mostly R rated horror films..hey what can i say?, We were cool with the girl employee!) and watch them all day until we all had to go back home for dinner.

On this particular saturday afternoon, we rented some movies including this one "Zombie Lake" and man, did it scare me! I truly had nightmares for the longest time about this film, maybe it was the way they walked (the zombies of course!), their expressions on their faces, their strength, and them coming out of a lake..Oh my god, We had a lake close to wear i used to live!
Now fast forward to 2004..i'm 28 years old now and don't really get scared watching horror movies anymore but still love them and watch as many as i can, the good and the bad.
Well this is REALLY BAD!
The story is poorly written and full of mistakes , the make up on the zombies are laughable (halloween make-up at Wal-mart is state of the art compared to this), the dubbing is horrible and i just love when the actor is finished talking but the voice is still going on (funny!), the editing was horrible, and just when you thought zombies didn't have feelings..well watch the film, they do and they even cry!
I guess it's funny that what scares us as kids makes us laugh when we're adults...that's life i guess!
In conclusion, Please AVOID this film, i watched it really for memories of when i was a kid, but now i'm having nightmares that i actually spent $20 on this waste of time.
TRUST ME ALL THE TRUE ZOMBIE FANS OUT THERE..THIS MOVIE REALLY BLOWS!!

So depending on who you ask this movie is a masterpiece, or it just plain blows. You decide.. to me another zombie movie is a good thing and I am going to buy it and watch it. Its spiff-tastic!
