{"product_id":"revolt-of-the-zombies-2","title":"Revolt of the Zombies","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 1947 re release poster was issued for the revival of Revolt of the Zombies, originally produced in 1936 and directed by Victor Halperin. The film occupies a distinctive place in early horror cinema, blending World War I intrigue, romantic obsession, and occult fantasy at a moment when zombie mythology was still being defined on screen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSet initially on the French Austrian front during World War I, the story follows a soldier who encounters an Asian priest guarding the secret of turning men into zombies. After the priest’s death, the quest for this knowledge leads to Angkor in Cambodia, where a hidden temple becomes the source of mass control and destruction. What begins as a supernatural discovery evolves into a dark love triangle, as the protagonist uses zombie armies to force a woman to marry him, only to unravel when her love proves false. The narrative moves across continents, combining colonial fantasy, archaeological mystery, and moral collapse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe film was originally titled Revolt of the Demons, but was renamed to capitalize on the success of Halperin’s earlier hit White Zombie. Though intended as a spiritual follow up, it pushed further into spectacle, including location footage at the ruins of Angkor and the use of a major archaeological expert as technical adviser. Notably, Halperin reused the haunting eye imagery from White Zombie, superimposing Bela Lugosi’s eyes to heighten the film’s hypnotic menace. Re released in 1947, the film gained renewed attention as a cult precursor to later adventure horror narratives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-label=\"Size\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 41.0\" x 27.0\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-label=\"Condition\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Very Good, Age-appropriate wear, fading and toning.
