Trailer of the Day: Sugar Hill (1974)


Sugar Hill (1974)


Every now and then a movie will come along that I completely overlooked or didn't even know about. Being a fan of horror films for over 30 years, finding these undiscovered gems is a rare and delightful event. Sugar Hill was one of those such films.


Caught in the past few years, Sugar Hill is a fun if slightly silly Voodoo/Zombie film from 1974. The zombies in this film are not the flesh eating George Romero variety, but more a call back to the White Zombie or Plague of the Zombies films.


This film succeeds because of its stars: Marki Bell, Robert Quarry (Count Yorga Vampire), Don Pedro Colley and Richard Lawson (Scream Blacula Scream). They basically execute a revenge film fueled by voodoo wielding zombies are their weapons. Fun stuff.


So here it is ... Sugar Hill (1974)
