Review of Let Sleeping Corpses Lie (1974)

Moving picture, 95 minutes

Seen in 2024.

17 MHz ultrasound wakes the dead in the Northern English countryside.

In no way scary, but rather neat. Smooth giallo-like stylization and an illiterate homage to Silent Spring (1962) are both added to a scenario like Night of the Living Dead (1968). The typical overdubbing, done to mask the Spanish-Italian co-production, is unusually charming.
