I Walked With a Zombie (1943), the best voodoo movie ever made and the best zombie movie ever made. A superb example of subtle intelligent character-driven horror.
Directed by Jacques Tourneur for Val Lewton's RKO B unit.
Inspired by Charlotte Brontë’s great gothic novel Jane Eyre.
It treats voodoo quite seriously and without sensationalism.
@d4doome I really need to get around to seeing more of Val Lewton's films.
@Ttubretep They're all terrific. Cat People, The 7th Victim, I Walked with a Zombie and Isle of the Dead are my favourites but all are worth seeing.
@d4doome I've only ever seen Cat People, but I love it.
