The Walking Dead from 1936, directed by Michael Curtiz, offers a fascinating blend of crime, horror, and sci-fi elements. The story of John Ellman, wrongfully executed, has this dark, almost noirish atmosphere that grips you. The pacing is intriguing, with a slow burn leading to the more supernatural aspects once he's brought back to life. The practical effects are quite remarkable for the time, especially in showcasing Ellman's haunting resurrection. Performances are solid, particularly in how they capture the desperation and eerie transformation of Ellman. It's not your typical zombie film; instead, it explores themes of justice and the afterlife, making it a distinctive entry in the genre. Definitely worth a watch for those interested in early genre-blending cinema.
