10 Horror Movies With Nazi Villains
5. Zombie Lake
Laughably ridiculous in every respect, the kindest thing that can be said about this Nazi zombie epic is that the combination of gratuitous nudity, bad dubbing and narrative stupidity is enough to compensate for the glacial pacing.
During the opening credits, a woman goes skinny-dipping in the “lake of the damned” which, thanks to movie magic, turns into a swimming pool in underwater shots. It’s also full of Nazi soldiers slain in the war, who rise from their watery grave for….oh, some reason or other, and subsequently attack the nearest town, their make-up rubbing off on each victim.
Best of all is the ‘touching’ sub-plot of one of the soldiers reacquainting with his daughter, which leads to scenes of a cute blonde girl walking hand in hand with her Nazi zombie dad. Why isn’t The Walking Dead this much fun?
