A Murderer and all-round -World War II Bad Egg OR the sad remnant of a terrible time in world history, just left alone to rot along with those 'sea bobbin' zom-bods? OR is SCAR a totally first class chap and ahead of his time, bringing us the very first Nazi-zombie genre flick, the terrifying cinematic concept of underwater -all-swimming-all flesh-munching-aqua-zombies??

ZOMBIE FEST: 'SHOCK WAVES' PETER CUSHING : JOHN CARRADINE : COMES TO BLU RAY

NEWS: Peter Cushing's 1977 zombie fest 'SHOCK WAVES' is coming to BLU RAY later this year: U.S. distributors Blue Underground have confirmed that they are planning to release on Blu-ray director Ken Wiederhorn's film Shock Waves (1977), starring Peter Cushing, Brooke Adams, Fred Buch, John Carradine, and Luke Halpin. The release is expected to arrive on the U.S. market later this year.

Official synopsis: In the dark days of World War II, the Nazi High Command ordered its scientists to create a top secret race of indestructible zombie storm troopers - un-living, unfeeling, unstoppable monstrosities that killed with their bare hands. They were known as The Death Corps. No member of this horrific SS unit was ever captured by Allied Forces - and, somewhere off the coast of Florida they have survived...

Peter Cushing (The Curse of Frankenstein), Brooke Adams (The Dead Zone) and John Carradine (The Howling) star in this suspenseful and genuinely creepy shocker co-written and directed by Ken Widerhorn (Return of the Living Dead II) - one of the great horror "sleepers" of the 1970s.
