Shock Waves (1977)
7/10
Highly atmospheric and nightmarish
14 January 2020
A group of tourists have some boat trouble and find themselves on a spooky, deserted island. Once there they try to explore and come upon a mysterious stranger and than one by one they are offed by undead Nazi super soldiers. The movie is a very slow burn and it takes a while to get going. Once it does it still maintains a drawn out pace but it's highly atmospheric and kind of nightmarish. This may be one of the only serious films to broach the subject of Nazi zombies and the reasoning behind such a project. Although it never fully fleshes out what's happening it gives us just enough information to keep our interest as well as keeping us on the edge of our seats.
