Immerse yourself in the eerie world of White Zombie, a classic horror film from 1932 often hailed as the first feature-length zombie movie. Directed by Victor Halperin and starring the legendary Bela Lugosi, this haunting tale is set in Haiti, where voodoo practices and dark rituals unfold.
The story follows Madeleine and Neil, a young couple traveling to the island to get married. Their plans take a sinister turn when a wealthy plantation owner seeks the help of the mysterious voodoo master, "Murder" Legendre (played by Lugosi), to win Madeleine's love. Using his dark powers, Legendre transforms Madeleine into a lifeless, obedient zombie. It’s a chilling tale of love, betrayal, and the supernatural that set the stage for the zombie genre we know today.
With its atmospheric settings, haunting performances, and groundbreaking themes, White Zombie remains a cult favorite among horror enthusiasts.
