[+]
(Foreign Titles)
Nomination Year: 2015
SYNOPSIS: Let me first state that there is no skin eating in this movie. Not mine, not yours, not the fried chicken's at dinner, not anybody's.
Now that that's out of the way...
A playboy writer of romances is whisked away (i.e., forced) to a tropical island by his friend/publisher/boss, in an attempt to get him actually to write something. The place? An idyllic remote island with the charming name of Voodoo Island. As it happens, there is a scientist there who, with his gorgeous blonde daughter, is working on the cure for cancer.
Secretly, however, the scientist is using the island's unique snake venoms to make an army of zombies to conquer the world! Can our novelist, now smitten with the daughter, save her from being sacrificed by the natives who believe it will stop the island's volcano from erupting?
