I also expected more from this movie. You can really see that Lenzi wanted way too much, and this really comes at the expense of the tension and also the action. More isn't always better when you get bogged down in generic killing of hordes of people in a very clumsy way.

There are actually 2 moments in this film that are worth the effort, that is when the plane lands and you know that it will soon go "loose". Lenzi plays with that. And of course the scene at the end that more people are already talking about on the roller coaster.

Lenzi can really do something and in terms of shots it is quite ok. So far I find his opinion about hard criminals more convincing. But it must be said, it never gets annoyingly bad and it's best to look away from this film.

This was fun again! Nice 70's/80's atmosphere, bad dub, mediocre action scenes, bad make-up, blurry plot and acting that makes you say "U" . Only point of criticism; only after 17 minutes the first topless woman... Beautiful clichés also passed by. Especially in the gas station; woman puts on a yellow coat, because then you are less noticeable. Man has to feel the ax to see if there really is blood on it .. and finally hit the woman first because she is in a panic and then kiss deeply as if nothing has happened The gore was a bit moderate, but came mainly in the The second half of the film is well underway. Great horror entertainment with bloodsucking mutants!

Actually, it is not a real zombie film, but a film about infected people, whether or not deployed by the army or by a crazy professor, who attack people aggressively and with weapons. You don't know the reason for how and why. The intro at the airport immediately grabs your attention and from that moment on the film, full of action scenes, races past at a fast pace. This intro also comes back at the end which you may or may not like. The infected people look pretty weird because of their simple make-up. When the mutants attack, it happens quite brutally, especially in view of a lot of female breasts that they sink their teeth into, which creates bloody scenes. Main protagonist Hugo Stiglitz is a reporter who has to deal with the mutants from the airport to the final scene. He goes in search of his girlfriend Dr. Anna Miller (Laura Trotter). In addition, you have movie icon Mel Ferrer as general, but he gets little interpretation to make his role really interesting. Francisco Rabal as the old major has been given a better interpretation in his role because he gets to play a sex scene with the beautiful Sheila (Maria Rosaria Omaggio). What a lucky bag! Definitely not bored with this bizarre horror movie also known as Attack of the Atomic Zombies. 6.5/10
