SeeQuant Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction

Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Billie Morin This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Tobias Burrows It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

ctomvelu1 Extremely creepy movie about a mad scientist trying to revive dead Nazis and start World War III. Dana Andrews plays the nutball scientist with an appropriately Nazi-like accent and demeanor. Unfortunately, as he revives these corpses, they go mad, so he locks them away in his castle dungeon. The scenes with these twitching, drooling stiffs are right out of an old-time circus sideshow. Meanwhile, the scientist still has several corpsesicles to play with (shown standing stiff as boards in a freezer, like so many fast-food hamburgers). But he also realizes he needs a fresh, live brain to work on. Just about then, his niece and her friend come to visit, and the scientist's equally nutty assistant takes it upon himself to strangle the niece's friend and offer up her head to his master. Pretty soon, they have a living head in a box, sort of like Senor Wences. The head's skull is cut away and the brain exposed, all the better to tinker with it, and the gal -- who in earlier scenes was a hot little number -- now looks like my deceased mother-in-law. Oh, did I mention the scientist keeps a bunch of severed arms dangling from a wall that he likes to play with? This is truly one sick film, surprising for a British kiddie flick of the time, and for a child of the time, it had to be the stuff of nightmares. Adults will get a hearty laugh out of the campy shenanigans, I suspect. Everything comes to a very bad end. The movie pulls no punches and is as sadistic as a Saturday afternoon matinée flick could possibly have been. Today, it's a hoot, of course. For those too young to remember Andrews, in his prime he was an A-list movie star.

ClassixFan OK, so this isn't the greatest of horror films and perhaps there are moments when the film slows to a crawl, but it also has some truly chilling moments! I first saw this film on late-night TV as a young one and I'll always remember the creepy ending and the decapitated head pleading to be killed. Dana Andrews heads the cast and does a nice job as the Nazi Dr trying to bring the frozen soldiers of the Third Reich back to life. I was thrilled to find this film on DVD as part of a double-feature with the truly horrid film, 'They Saved Hitler's Brain'. If you have an opportunity to watch this film, you really should give it a try.....it's not nearly as bad as some would have you believe!

Coventry Well, I'm convinced now. They made stupid movies back in the old days as well...the Frozen Dead for instance. A very crappy, but especially boring horror movie coming from the 60's. Widely considered as the golden decade for horror, and I surely agree with that, but then we have to ignore this picture. There are about 15 good minutes in this movie. The last ones. All the required tension, creepy atmosphere and horror are in this quarter. All the rest is a waste of time, although it could have been something, I think.About 20 years after World War II ended, a few old-fashioned Nazi officers and scientists are performing experiments on frozen Nazi-leaders. They want to bring them back, of course and they can! Thanks to the work of Dr. Norberg. Too bad (for them, at least) his curious niece (Jean) pops up with a friend of hers. She never knew her uncle and her deceased father were Nazi's so the lab of Dr. Norberg has to be hidden for her. To continue their research, Dr. Norberg and his assistent kill Jean's friend. Jean becomes suspicious. That's pretty normal I guess...they could've killed anybody, but nooooo...Let's kill the friend of the niece. How stupid is that !!! The acting is boring, the action is very limited and there's no feeling at all with the characters. Although I'm glad there wasn't any feeling, actually. After all, the characters were Nazi's. The Frozen Dead is a movie that should be avoided. The synopsis of this film may sound interesting but believe me, further expectations will only lead to huge disappointments. My humble opinion on the Frozen Dead = 2/10

Athanatos The Nazis' finest (who, in my opinion, couldn't possibly be all that fine) are corpsicled in preparation for the future, apparently a couple of decades downstream. Dana Andrews, a top German scientist, is now trying to thaw them out, but he just gets one basket case after another; brain damage seems to be a major problem. His henchman, knowing that Andrews wants a fresh head with which to work, kills the visiting friend of his daughter, who becomes the head-in-the-box. Naturally, she's a bit angry about this state of affairs. Naturally, all the Nazis end up dead. At the end of the movie, there's the problem of what do do with the head-in-a-box. No one suggests grad school. Instead, sans lungs, she says "Bury me!" Well, that probably is better than grad school. Actually, though it's easy to make fun of this movie, it's not a bad flick.
