A chemical created by Nazi experimentation is discovered in modern-day Germany. Once released, it causes all sorts of horrific bloodshed, mutation, and madness.
MUTATION (or, in director's cut form K7B:MUTATION) is the first of a trilogy of apocalyptic zombie films from director Marc Fehse. Actually, zombies are only a prevalent feature of the films. Much like Italy's new horror king, Ivan Zuccon, Fehse channels Lovecraft through the kaleidoscope vision of '70s splatter films. Shot on video- and looking it- MUTATION nevertheless overcomes almost all of shortcomings in inventive ways. The CGI effect can be absolutely brutal, or cartoonish- but always make sense in context to the scene that employs them. This is psychotronic underground film-making and as such is certainly not for everyone. But it stands far above most other underground horror efforts and should definitely be experienced by anyone seriously interested in horror films outside Hollywood. The second film in the series, GENERATION DEAD, is even better.
