King of the Zombies (1941) Movie DVD
This DVD of the 1941 King of the Zombies horror comedy movie has been digitally re-mastered to maintain the original retro/classic scratched look and feel of the original movie that was so common at the time of its creation.
On a spooky island, three stranded travelers find an evil doctor working with foreign spies and in control of zombies.
During World War 2, a small plane off the south coast of America is low on fuel and blown off course by a storm. Guided by a faint radio signal, they crash-landed on an island.
The passenger, his manservant and the pilot take refuge in a mansion owned by a doctor. The easily-spooked manservant soon becomes convinced the mansion is haunted by zombies and ghosts. Exploring, the 3 find a voodoo ritual in the cellar, where the doctor is trying to acquire war intelligence by transferring personalities into his zombies.
But the interruption causes the zombies to turn on their creator.
