1st Zombie Horror Movie Ever: 1932 White Zombie

The infamous b-horror movie star Bela Lugosi (Plan 9 from Outer Space) stars in the first zombie movie ever made! Fans of modern zombie movies will not want to miss how it all started. Lugosi, better known for his sinister portrayal of Count Dracula, plays a Haitian witch doctor with the power to animate the dead. Brandishing such abilities, Lugosi is asked to help a man kill and then animate the woman he most desires. Lugosi agrees and promises she will do his bidding. But when the time comes, Lugosi doesn’t want to give her up! Delightfully low budget, the effects and sets are lovingly crafted out of low cost materials. The results are an enthralling blast of vintage horror that stands up well with any classics.
