Best movie of this year hands down!
Best movie of this year hands down!
The movie is surprisingly subdued in its pacing, its characterizations, and its go-for-broke sensibilities.
The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
If you're looking for a movie about undead cannibals that walk around with their rotting flesh falling off or want to see intestines get ripped out of people while they're still alive, you're going to be very disappointed.White Zombie is one of the first zombie movies ever made, and it's still one of the scariest. It's a creepy and atmospheric movie from the time when filmmakers made true horror movies that didn't rely on cheap jump scares or guts and gore.Bela Lugosi's character is probably one of the most evil villains in a horror movie. In some ways, he's worse than Dracula. Dracula could always blame it on the curse...what's this guy's excuse? He's just a sadist.The zombies are frightening to look at, especially the "chief executioner". He's comparable to Count Orlok from Nosferatu or Erik in Phantom of the Opera from 1925 (in fact, the whole movie feels like a silent movie). I bet the actors cracked up a lot during the making of the movie, though.Everything in White Zombie looks creepy, from start to finish. It's like a very bad dream. The graveyard, the house, the castle...and then there's the darn vulture. Stop making those awful noises! But fortunately, since this is an old movie, it has a happy ending where the villain is defeated, and our heroes (hopefully) live happily ever after.Forget overrated zombie movies like Dawn of the Dead and garbage like Fulci's "Zombi", and watch a true zombie movie instead.
This is a very scary movie. 6.4 is underrating. It has a great story line. It also has great acting. It also has great special effects. I give a 9. It is very scary. This is scarier then The Shinning and that is not easy to do. This is of the best horror films of all time. It is better then A Nightmare on elm street and that is not easy to do. This is scarier then the 2009 reboot of Friday the 13th ever could be. This scarier the Bride of Chucky could ever be. This is a very scary. This is scarier then Hellbound Hellrasier II and that is not easy to do. This is scarier then Halloween resurrection could ever be. This is a very scary movie. And if you good horror movie then you need to see this movie.
White Zombie is an old time horror movie. This movie is found to be just like every other horror movie from this time period. Most old horror movies aren't found to have a lot of action or be very gory like horror movies are today. Just like other old movies, it is recorded in the studio. All the sets are made specifically for each scene. The sets are easily noticeable and corny but if the viewer can get past the corniness, the movie and story is pretty good. I find lighting to have a positive impact on many older movies. This movie also benefits from lighting. Lighting is very important to horror movies, it inputs a certain feeling and mood for the viewer just like music does. The acting in this movie was very poor. This definitely was not my favorite horror movie and I would not recommend someone to watch it.
This movie was good for its time, in that it surely instilled horror in the people the watched it. The lighting is slim to none, and in some scenes, a little more light might not have hurt. It was very clear that this movie was low budget, and more could have been done with what they had. Lighting, again, was the best part of this film. There is rarely, if ever, a noticeable shadow, which is remarkable because it is almost impossible to do now. The fact this movie was still in black and white adds to lighting effect, allowing things to appear darker then they would if the film was in color. As a horror movie released in the early 30's, this movie was a good fit to the genre.
