THIS DAY IN HORROR:
"Alien Dead" (1980) released
A meteor strikes a houseboat in the swamps near a southern town, which causes the people on the houseboat to become zombies. When the zombies run out of alligators to eat, they begin killing people in the town. A local scientist tries to figure out how to stop the zombies.
The very definition of 'low budget', "Alien Dead" had a estimated budget of $12,000, and it certainly shows. The reviews were not kind to this movie either. Steven Puchalski describes the film in his book Slimetime: A Guide to Sleazy, Mindless Movies, as "third rate Night of the Living Dead" with laughable effects, though he calls it "eminently watchable for schlock fanatics".
Rotten Tomatoes Score: 8% (Audience Rated)
