_**A cabin in the woods on an island with a book of spells and a graveyard**_
A theatre troupe is misled by their crackpot leader (Alan Ormsby) to spend the night on an infamous isle off the coast of Miami known for its cemetery of outcast criminals. There he tries his hand at raising the dead using a grimoire.
"Children Shouldn’t Play with Dead Things” (1972) is a horror indie by Bob Clark (director/writer) & Ormsby (writer) inspired by “Night of the Living Dead” (1968). It only cost $70,000 (about $45,000 less than “Night”), but the spooky atmosphere is effective (with eerie sounds for the soundtrack rather than conventional music), the zombie make-up is well done and the amusing characters were written & performed with personality and spunk.
Brunette Jane Daly stands out in the female department as Terry (the girl with the yellow shirt) while Anya Ormsby is reminiscent of Parker Posey as the spiritually sensitive lass (she was married to Alan at the time of shooting). Meanwhile Valerie Mamches is entertaining as the quasi-Gypsy woman.
While watching I couldn’t help think of Steve Gerber’s Man-Thing comics from 1973-1975. The location and vibe are similar, just without a swamp monster. He was obviously influenced by this cult flick.
The film runs 1 hour, 27 minutes, and was shot in the Coconut Grove area of Miami.
