Dreamlike chiller classic, low-budget and full of eerie organ music. Save this one for after midnight. A woman (Candace Hilligoss) walks away from a horrible car accident only to go insane afterward when a scary ghost zombie guy starts following her everywhere and smiling at her. She also sees visions of dancing corpses and goes through weird episodes in which she seems to turn invisible and inaudible to everyone around her. It doesn’t take you too long to figure out that it’s all a variation on the old Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge story for the drive-ins.
Shot on some of the loneliest streets of Lawrence, Kansas. It’s the first and last film ever directed by Herk Harvey, who also plays the smiling zombie.
