Well, if you enjoy 1980s low budget Italian zombie movies...

Given my love of all things horror and my fascination with all things zombie, of course I needed no persuasion to sit down and watch the 2007 movie "L'isola Dei Morti Viventi" (aka "Island of the Living Dead"), as I had the opportunity to do so here in 2025.Granted, I must admit that I harbored zero expectations to the movie, as the cover had that particular 1980s Italian low budget zombie feel to it. And the movie actually looked, felt, and sounded like exactly that. So hey, if 1980s low budget Italian zombie movies is your thing, then you're in for a treat here. However, if you are hoping for a more contemporary zombie movie, don't get your hopes up.The dialogue in the movie was pretty horrible. It was so campy and cheesy, and so poorly delivered and dubbed, that it has to be experienced and heard in order to fully grasp.The acting performances in the movie were questionable. Now, the movie is listed here on IMDb to be in English language, but I think it was a poorly done dub, because the dialogue was atrociously delivered and didn't match with the movement of the lips. Needless to say that I was not familiar with a single actor or actress on the cast list, and that was actually one thing that spoke in favor of the movie.The special effects in the movie were exactly that; special. Again, if you enjoy 1980s low budget zombie movies, then you know what you are in for here. Don't expect over-the-top special effects in any way. And when there was suddenly vampire fangs introduced into the narrative, I was good and ready to just call it a day and give up on the movie; that was seriously some of the most ridiculous stuff I've seen in movies in a long time, and I watch a lot of questionable movies.Since this particular subgenre of zombie movies isn't really something I enjoy, then "L'isola Dei Morti Viventi" didn't exactly rock my boat.My rating of director Bruno Mattei's 2007 movie "L'isola Dei Morti Viventi" lands on a very, very generous three out of ten stars.

Another Good Plot Ruined by Bruno Mattei

This film begins during the 17th Century on an island somewhere near the Bermuda Triangle where some Spanish soldiers are fighting for their lives against an incredible number of zombies. The scene then shifts to the present day where a small group of treasure hunters find their ship engulfed by a fog bank and because of a collision with another ship are forced to take refuge on a nearby uncharted island. Sure enough, this just happens to be the same island in the previous scene and the treasure hunters soon find themselves in the same situation as the Spanish soldiers 320 years earlier. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this was a typically bad low-budget film by Bruno Mattei which suffered from a bad script, bad character development and bad acting. Everything was bad. It also features some of the most incredibly stupid people to have ever walked on the planet as each of them stumble from one bad predicament to another based entirely on their limited decision-making processes. And things then go from bad to worse. That being said, those who may have enjoyed the movie "The Evil Dead" might find some similarities with this film-but even then there isn't really much of a comparison between the two. Personally, other than the presence of two fairly attractive actresses, Yvette Yzon (as "Sharon") and Ydalia Suarez ("Victoria") there really wasn't much of anything here that caught my eye and for that reason I have rated this movie accordingly. Definitely below average.

Island of the Living Dead: So bad it's...........still bad

Supposedly a sequel to Zombies The Beginning (2007) but sharing no similarities at all other than the lead female (Even though she plays a different character) this Italian made poorly dubbed mess is pretty damn bad.Attempting to pay homage to the classics with scenes mimicked from Night Of The Living Dead, Zombie Flesh Eaters & erm....House Of The Dead?! it fails miserably at each and is more an insult than a respectful nod.The soundtrack is the standout performer but since I recognised that one was ripped straight from Aliens (1986) I'm left to think maybe they didn't make the rest either.With a variety of different zombies, no explanation of basically anything at all and some of the worst acting around this is one to watch when drunk, high or while in a medically induced coma.If I were to make a zombie movie the blue print I'd make is taking everything they've done here then do the literal opposite.
