Ahead of its Time - As Was I

Can't help but laugh at the Zombie/Werewolf/Vampire mania so popular today, especially with teens - they think they've found something new! Ha-ha! Zombies had been around a long time - we had WHITE ZOMBIE in 1932, the wonderful I WALKED WITH A ZOMBIE in 1943, and this gem, PLAGUE OF THE ZOMBIES, in 1966, when at the age of 10 I saw it on a double-bill with DRACULA PRINCE OF DARKNESS - both are still among my favorite "comfort movies" for re-watching every few years.

Yep, I saw this as a double bill with Dracula Prince of Darkness. I was 14 at the time but ran all the way home. I was really spooked! 😨
