"The Zombies Of Mora Tau" (1957)
-Greg Palmer
Plot: IMDB
Zombiefied sailors guard the treasure of a ship they went down with 60 years earlier. A group of sailors scoff at the legend, and decide to retrieve the diamonds from the ocean floor only to discover the hard way that there is some truth to legends.
Phantom's Review: Slightly better than average, low budget horror film. The premise is interesting, the actors do a good job and these zombies move around underwater, which is a bit different than most zombie films. The film does move very slowly and there are no real scares, but I found it to be fun, late night viewing. One bit of info for zombie fans. this film was made about 11 years before George Romeros classic "Night Of The Living Dead" so don't expect to see the marauding, flesh eating ghouls that most people call zombies now. These guys just sort of walk around and occasionally try to strangle people.
