Corpse Eaters DVD!


I found it here:

http://encorehomevideo.com/features/corpse_eaters.html

Spoke with a nice fellow there (I called) who was a friend of the director (went to high school with him...) and was kind enough to relate some stories to me about the film and how he came to own it - very interesting story!

This is a zombie film made by a fellow who loved zombie films, with a larger budget and bigger management who knows what might have happened...

Great info. I have the disc and it's definitely a film made with care and worthwhile watching. One shouldn't expect Hollywood polish from a low budget 1974 gore film anyway!

Exactly! But this is still much, much better that today's shot on video garbage! The fims gore predates Dawn of the Dead. I have never seen a zombie film this gruesome from 1974 or before.

There's a good half-chapter on this film in the recently revised & updated edition of the book THEY CAME FROM WITHIN:A HISTORY OF CANADIAN HORROR CINEMA,and it's pretty funny too. It talks about the director and how he managed to get this indie horror flick made, despite the difficulties. I'd like to see it because I love '70s horror films anyway.
