Alongside Charles McCrann, the film starred Beverly Shapiro, Dennis Helfend, John Amplas, and Claude Scales. Labeled as a video nasty and banned in the UK during the 1980s, the film has been featured twice on the USA Network.
For the Toxic Zombies premiere event, Cinematic Void founder Jim Branscome and Massacre Video founder Louis Justin will host a Q&A after the feature with the film’s editor David Sperling and actor Claude Scales.
