The Astro-Zombies1968
“Dismembered Bodies, Transplanted Organs, Are Used To Create The...”
Directed by Ted V. Mikels
The premise
For devilishly mad "astro-scientist" Dr. DeMarco (John Carradine), a typical day involves run-ins with reanimated corpses, bloodthirsty solar-powered killer robot zombies, Chinese communist spies and vicious Mexican secret agents. But when a bloody trail of young female murder victims leads an intrepid CIA agent to his door, things get really interesting. Ted V. Mikels directs this unique B horror-thriller.
Horror Vault's take
A rogue astro-scientist pursues his grotesque reanimation experiments in secret, creating solar-powered killer creatures that leave a grisly trail of victims in their wake. Rival spy factions and a dogged CIA investigator close in from all sides, turning this low-budget 1968 curio into a wild collision of horror, Cold War intrigue, and pulpy science fiction. Director Ted V. Mikels cranks up the B-movie atmosphere with a colourful cast that includes John Carradine at his most delightfully unhinged. Fans of drive-in era oddities will find plenty to savour in its cheerfully chaotic blend of genres.
