Revolt of the Zombies

REVOLT OF THE ZOMBIES concerns the use of mesmerism / telepathy / hocus-pocus to create an army of unflinching, "zombie" super-soldiers. It seems a certain Cambodian priest is using his mystical mind powers to control his robotic hordes, making them a nearly unstoppable force. When the nefarious General Mazovia (Roy D'Arcy) murders the priest, he plans to use the automatons to fulfill his own wicked agenda.

In the midst of this, a team is sent to uncover the secret of the zombies. A love triangle develops between three of them- Clifford Grayson, Claire Duval, and Armond Louque (Robert Noland, Dorothy Stone, and Dean Jagger). Will one of them succumb to darkness, and use the power to get what they want?

While the title suggests an action-packed horror film, those expecting big thrills will be sorely disappointed. This movie is more of a slow-building tale of jealousy, bitterness, and revenge, using Eastern occultism as a backdrop, with a few zombies making cameos toward the beginning and end.

Not a terrible film, just misleading...
