WEIRDEST LOVE STORY IN 2000 YEARS!

The story is set in Cambodia in the years following WWI. An evil count has come into possession of the secret methods by which men can be transformed into walking zombies and uses these unholy powers to create a race of slave laborers. An expedition is sent to the ruins of Angkor Wat, in hopes of ending the count's activities once and for all. Unfortunately, one of the members of the expedition has his own agenda.

Yikes, but this is far more terrible than the zombies could ever hope to be. An expedition is despatched to Cambodia to discover and destroy forever the secret enchantment that creates zombies. Dean Jagger ("Armand") alone, discovers the idol bearing the secret script and once he's deciphered it realises that he can now create an army of these unstoppable corpses. To be fair, it actually looks OK - the lighting and photography do create a certain degree of suspense, but the writing and acting - especially a super-hammy Dorothy Stone "Claire Duval" (who went on to star with Bob Hope, but not in this!) is dreadfully lame. It needed a star to give it some sort of anchor, it hasn't got one and so seemed to me like quite a long, procedural 65 minutes.
