Reception
Ian Jane of DVD Talk said that the film has "a sense of ridiculous charm to it" and is enjoyable despite its flaws.[1] Writing in the Zombie Movie Encyclopedia, academic Peter Dendle said, "Though up-scale for a Troma release, this is still unbearably tedious and awful, to be avoided by any expedient."[4] Dendle writes that although the film does not have traditional Romero-style zombies, the voodoo ceremony raises what seems to be Haitian zombie.[4]

[ru] Резня на острове зомби
«Резня на острове зомби» (англ. Zombie Island Massacre) — американский фильм ужасов 1984 года режиссёра Джона Картера. В отличие от многих фильмов ужасов непосредственно саму внешность зомби пристально рассмотреть не удастся ввиду того, что они покрыты кустарниками и травой. К тому же необычны способы расправы зомби с живыми лицами, подобные действия они осуществляют не посредством своей физической силы и острых зубов, а используя мачете, копьё и палки. Большая часть фильма снята в тёмное время суток, а также во время предшествующих им сумерек.Другой контент может иметь иную лицензию.
