Cornish zombies of The Plague of the Zombies

Hammer's zombie film moves voodoo to a Cornish village, where the local squire turns people into the walking dead to work his tin mine. Historians credit it with influencing Night of the Living Dead two years later. Radio Times called it director John Gilling's best work.1
