Thom Eberhardt directed this overlooked gem and it has arrived on Blu-ray from Code red.
Anita Skimmer stars as a young woman named Denise Watson who is the only survivor of a plane crash. After a short stay in the hospital and trying to shake the feeling she is being followed, Denise continues with her career as a TV commercial producer.
She slowly develops a relationship with her doctor, Brian Richardson (Kurt Johnson) and he tries to convine her that she is only suffering from "survivor guilt". Denise keeps seeing dead bodies watching her and following her and even trying to kill her.
Things get worse and soon everyone that is trying to help her begins dying as well, and then Denise starts seeing them up and walking around. Why do these corpses want her dead? Is she going crazy?
This film was not seen much upon it's initial release as it faded into obscurity because of the slasher craze in the movie industry. This will indeed remind viewers of "Carnival Of Souls". I am glad this is coming back out to DVD and Blu-ray because I think it's still a somewhat undiscovered masterpiece that more people need to see.
Director Eberhardt was also responsible for the great "Night Of The Comet". This is a highly recommended film in my opinion. If you get the chance to snag the Blu-ray, do so.
