Julie Wallace (Hilda Krantz) SUMMARY A group of people are trapped in a remote farmhouse when the recently dead inexplicably start to return to live and go looking for human flesh. Relationships in the house deteriorate rapidly as the siege continues. CAPSULE REVIEW A travesty. John Russo adds new footage to an acknowledged classic to detrimental effect (the new material doesn't match the original and adds nothing substantially new) while daring to remove other footage. A waste of time motivated solely by the lure of financial gain and not for love of the original film. AVAILABILITY USA
