I had a few minutes when I got home as the wife and
daughters went to a matinee to see some chick flicks. With that time, I spent
some time watching Ancient Aliens, along with the 1981 schlockfest Zombie Lake.
Plot/ In small villages, somewhere in France, German
soldiers, killed and thrown into the lake by the Resistance during WW II, come
back.
This film by Jean Rollin is a train wreck and possibly one
of the cheesiest zombie flicks ever made. Yes, it does feature a ton of nudity,
some decent underwater cinematography, and a couple of decent shots, but that
in no way can save this schlockfest in any way. The special effects and make-up
are laughable, the acting beyond amateurish, the lake a joke, and the script by
Jess Franco is incoherent at best. In the end, there were a couple of
entertaining moments, but it is nowhere enough to make this a good movie. Sure,
it may be hilarious because of the schlock-factor, but at best, it is a 90-minute
time waster.
