About
You might enjoy this if you like vintage, campy zombie horror with creepy knight imagery and a siege setup reminiscent of The Loreley's Grasp or Fangs of the Living Dead; Not for you if you want polished scares or a tightly logical story.
Pros: eerie undead knights; creepy village siege; cult horror fun | Cons: uneven acting; confusing story beats; silly character choices
