VOODOO SWAMP 1962 (MEDIA BLASTERS)

I have owned this film for 20 years and never have watched it.

I finally got around to seeing it the other day. I completely forgot it was included as an extra on the movie "Blood Of The Zombie" aka "The Dead One".

This was never released and it looks like it was really never finished. There are no opening or closing titles and the audio seems to have been post recorded much like to Coleman Francis classic "Beast Of Yucca Flats".

The story centers around a young woman who hires a private detective to search the swamps for her missing twin sister. There is not much more to the plot and it is a hard film to sit thru as it moves very slow.

I also should tell you there is no music score and the editing is very odd as well. With every scene switch we get a brief overshadow of the previous scene, which is a cool effect, but I doubt it was done on purpose.

I really can't recommend this to anyone, unless you're crazy like I am and just NEED to see every forgotten and unfinished film ever made. So, if you're not a fan of films like the above mentioned "Beast Of Yucca Flats" then I would avoid at all costs.
