Radio Blue Heart presents TALES FROM THE PUBLIC DOMAIN!

Episode 24: Mutant! (aka Night Shadows)

Bad but interesting entry in the zombie genre. This film began life as a script that ripped off Stephen King’s “The Stand” and eventually evolved in what you see here… The best they could do.

The film focuses on two brothers driving through rural Georgia. They get stranded in a small town when some rednecks they offended run them off the road. It becomes clear that the town is hiding something. That something is that a chemical manufacturing corporation has been dumping toxic waste down a mine shaft and it is leaking into the local water supply, mutating the locals into zombie-like creatures that spew acidic goo and suck blood.

This movie is bad but it should keep you entertained. It was directed by John “Bud” Cardos who directed other cult B-movies like “Kingdom of the Spiders” and “The Dark”. Dick Clark was a producer on the film though he was uncredited. An unofficial sequel was made called “Alien Predators” in 1987 and a loose remake called “Nightmare at Noon” with some of the same cast.

The film also boasts an awesome score by Richard Band.
