The film premiered in August 1972,[1] and was later distributed on VHS by Troma Entertainment. In 2004, it was featured on a 3-in-1 Troma DVD.[2] In 2006, Troma released it as part of a 15-in-1 pack.[3]


Reception


Writing in The Zombie Movie Encyclopedia, academic Peter Dendle said, "This scruffy low-budget production anticipates the pointless and depressing amateur zombie movies of the early '90s by almost twenty years."[4] Glenn Kay, who wrote Zombie Movies: The Ultimate Guide, said, "It's all incredibly silly, campy stuff."[5] On Evil Dread, the website rated Garden of the Dead 2/10 stars.[6][unreliable source?]

Bloody Disgusting included the film's poster in their list of the best posters for bad films.[7]
