Along a desolate road in the Haitian mountains, a carriage bearing Neil Parker and Madelaine Short encounters a funeral in which the body is being buried in the road. Further down the road, the coach stops at the sight of a man of satanic appearance: six human shapes step forth, and the horrified driver shouts “Zombies!”, signalling the first appearance of the living dead in American cinema. When first released, WHITE ZOMBIE was given a critical scourging, but today occupies a deserved place beside DRACULA and FRANKENSTEIN as one of the most eerie and interesting horror films of the 1930’s.
