Zombie 5 killing Birds(1987)

A vietnam vet comes home and finds his slutty wife in bed with another man, and goes on a killing rampage. but ends up getting blinded afterwards by birds in cages on the porch.

Fast forward later. and a bunch of college students, including lara wendel from tenebrae, are off looking for rare woodpeckers, and end up at the scene of the crimes. and find themselves under siege from the living dead.

I usually love any type of Italian horror even the ones that are considered absolute rubbish. but this one was a serious chore to sit through.
not even that chap Robert Vaughn from that Man From Uncle series could save this turkey, where he plays a blind bird specialist.
the cast is seriously irritating, with even Lara Wendel looking a lot less charming in one of her later efforts.
And the zombies when they do turn up eventually are rather pathetic and rubbish gore effects as well.

quite a poor effort overall, and with terrible sound issues . and apparently Joe D'amato worked on this as well which is surprising as i always like his efforts usually. 40 out of 100.
