A dead terrorists body is cremated by the army. It has been infected with a stolen chemical and when the body is burned the smoke rises into the air and causes strange things to happen including some of the local birdlife to go crazy.
It also has another side effect...it causes the inhabitants of a small island to mutate into flesh hungry zombies.
A small team of soldiers teams up with a group of tourists to fight the zombie outbreak. Rveryone ends up fighting for their lives as the outbreak spreads quickly. There are some bizarre scenes in this film including a flying skull that has to be seen to be believed. Director Fauci was very proud of that scene.
However, Fauci walked out on the production and Bruno Mattei took over and it's very evident as the movie veers into really bizarre territory. I liked this film ok, it's not one of my favorites, but it's a good time killer.
The gore scenes are well done, but not over done as they usually are. The ending is, of course, downbeat and bleak. The only one in the cast that was familiar was Luciano Pigozzi, who acted in hundreds of Italian movies, and I swear I have every film he was ever in.
Check this film out if you're so inclined. Who knows, you might like it, and remembeer you could do much worse as far as movies like this go.
