What many consider to be the first feature length zombie film happens to be this week's pick with 1932's White Zombie starring Bela Lugosi. Murder Legendre is the menacingly named zombie master of Haiti. Charles Beaumont goes to him when he needs help for a twisted plan. Spurned in marriage by Madeline Short, Beaumont has decided on a simple solution: kill Short and bring her back as a zombie. Then he can be with her forever. The only problem comes when Legendre keeps the fetching girl for himself -- and her new husband comes to Madeline's rescue.
