Nightmare City-1980

Not really a Spoiler;

Nightmare City is a little Italian film by Umberto Lenzi who happens to be one of Joe Bob Briggs' fav directors. It is not a well known film. I would have disliked it if not for the fact that I would slow the scenes down and could see when a dummy was used. That made me laugh.
The movie is about zombie vampires who were made from a mistake at a lab. They are in an airplane that lands in a city and they end up taking over. These vampire zombies are not the usual breed, probably because they have both vampire and zombie in them. They are fairly intelligent. Of course you wouldn't know that from the look of them. The zombie vampires look like they have shit all over their faces. That in itself is enough to see the film. If your looking to be scared, forget it. If your looking for a good laugh then this is the film for you.
The best scene is when the two leading actors- Laura Trotter (Dr. Anna Miller) and Hugo Stiglitz (Dean Miller) are running from the zombie vampires and Anna starts freaking out. Dean slaps her (she moves her head the opposite way lol) and then they kiss passionately. I actually had tears running down my face I laughed so hard.
