This one should be pretty easy for someone around here.
Read this on the back cover of a VHS...never hired whatever it was...
All I remember is reading that it was about a dude who'd just returned from a tour of duty of some kind...?maybe vietnam?...and like, he was turning into a zombie and people mistook it for shellshock?

Could it be Combat Shock?

Nah, I recall reading he was dead...like either already was, or was becoming a zombie when he came back, people living with him took it as being withdrawn and shellshocked?
I wish I could remember what it was, I always wanted to see it.

Dead of Night (aka) Deathdream.

That's the one, now I can go check it out.
Thanks.

Nobody's come close yet.
I know I would recognize the title if I heard it, but it was not a major release, nor did it have any names I recogized in it.
I'm pretty sure I read about it/saw it on joblo.com, so maybe I can go back thru those archives and find it that way-just haven't had the time yet.

Definally - Great film..

One of my favorite flicks. You should track down the Blue Underground version of it Cheeba it was floating around dirt cheap for awhile and is excellent package all round.

I'll definitely have a look eh...I've been wondering about it for some time.
Couldn't really find a well seeded torrent so looks like this one might actually get purchased haha.

Well, I went as far back as 1999 on joblo and could not find it :(
I know I saw it either there or amazon and read about it-just can't recall too much!
I'm thinking, though, there may have been a reference to the women or women being witches perhaps?
Does that help at all?
