In a polluted mangrove swamp, the locals recall the time when they could fish and catch mud crabs to sell and feed their families and themselves in their isolated community; now the swamp is dead and they can hardly find a fish or a crab in the dirty water. During a night, dead bodies raise from the swamp, attacking and biting the dwellers that transform into aggressive zombies. The local Luís (Walderrama dos Santos) fights against the monsters to survive and save the life of Raquel (Kika de Oliveira), on whom he has a crush.
The Brazilian"Mangue Negro" is a trash movie so gore that recalls Peter Jackson's "Braindead". The story is very simple, but the make-up and effects are surprisingly great and the hero uses a hatchet to get rid of the creatures that threatens his and his beloved lives in a bloodbath in the level of "Braindead". His romantic declaration to Raquel is hilarious. My vote is eight.
Title (Brazil): "Mangue Negro" ("Black Mangrove Swamp")
