The Living Dead at the Manchester Morgue (1974 Jorge Grau)

Hapless couple Christine Galbo and Ray Lovelock are wrongly pursued by bewildered-acting cop Arthur Kennedy as experimental parasites treatment causes the dead to reawaken. Opens intriguingly enough in a city where no one notices a woman streaking; then unusually sets most of its action in the Lake District. Suitably gory to have caused the film to be cut on its release and for that reason I'd wanted to watch it ever since. Really not too bad, Italian-Spanish co-production steals its end from Night of the Living Dead. Has a good role for a mini. Night scenes are hideously overlit. A suitable end to our Halloween horror weekend.
