Neither the Sea Nor the Sand (1972)
Not a zombie film
17 March 2019 - 6 out of 7 users found this review helpful.
Zombie flick? Not on your life. Certainly not like the tedious maniacal, blood-thirsty zombies that Americans are so fond of. It's the understated presence of the 'living dead' (animated by the spirit of Hampshire's love) in the shape of Michael Petrovitch that makes the film unnerving.
"We're so happy" opening lasts for 35 minutes - too long, but once that's over the film becomes compelling.
Lovely theme spoilt by a lame piece of artless sixties pop (Land rover on beach scene), jarring to say the least.
