So, 'Wake Up to Kill' from '87 is this wild mix of action and horror. The director, who also plays a pretty memorable zombie antagonist, really leans into the martial arts aspects, which gives it a unique flavor for its time. The practical effects are, let's just say, a bit rough around the edges, but they add to that gritty charm. The pacing is a bit uneven, bouncing between high-octane fight sequences and slower, atmospheric moments. It’s interesting how it juggles themes of survival and the undead without taking itself too seriously. The stunts? They’re definitely a highlight. It's not your typical flick, making it a curious watch for collectors who appreciate the blend of genres and the era it came from.
