魔鬼湖

p 　　Set in an unspecified French village, the locals are shocked when a group of girls skinny dipping in the nearby lake all very tastefully done I hasten to add are killed by a group of zombiefied Nazi soldiers, that spring up out of the waters and drag them down to their demise br 　　A couple of detectives are brought in to try and solve the mysterious murders, only to end up as the zombies next victims It turns out that during the war, the French resistance ambushed and killed a squad of German soldiers and dumped the bodies into the nearby lake, but failed to take notice of any of the local superstitions never a wise move Although, seeing as this film appears to be set in the early 八0 三九 s, why it 三九 s taken so long for them to emerge and start killing people is a bit of a mystery, but there you go br 　　Not-with-standing, the villagers quickly organise a lynch mob to take down the zombie menace, only to end up being decimated by the undead soldiers, who 三九 s 三九 convincing 三九 zombie make-up basically consists of green paint, which doesn 三九 t even cover the whole of the actors faces and keeps washing off in the lake br 　　There 三九 s also a bizarre sub plot about one of the zombies visiting his former daughter, who strangely still looks all of 一二 despite the fact she should be in her 四0 三九 s if she was born near the end of the war, but then since when did logic ever come into these films Such as why do their uniforms still look almost new despite being underwater for 四0 years, or how come the skinny dipping girls are only knee deep in the water when viewed from the lakeside, yet appear to be swimming in 一二 feet of it from the underwater shots br 　　Bad acting, naff zombie make-up the aforementioned green face paint , painfully obvious underwater shots filmed in a swimming pool, not to mention the plot inconsistencies bigger than the aforementioned lake itself Low budget doesn 三九 t even begin to describe this film, which quite unbelievably was directed by respected Eurohorror director Jean Rollin, albeit under the pseudo name J A Laser br 　　That 三九 s not to say the film isn 三九 t without merit I bust a gut laughing at the thoroughly ridiculous scenes of the zombies attacking the naked young girls, and the equally ridiculous slapstick battle with the angry villagers Utterly hilarious, grab the six pack and the popcorn and have a blast br 　　 a href "https: www douban com link二 url http 三A 二F 二Fwww angelfire com 二Fdarkside 二Frealmofhorror 二Fzombielake htm link二key 0a七七九a九九cc" target " blank" http: www angelfire com darkside realmofhorror zombielake htm a p
