Good female butt shot in opening minutes, leads to story about zombies waiting for a trio on an island, scouting out possible locations for a new hotel. (Oh, who are they kidding? It was just an excuse to get laid on a tropical island!) They encounter a strange, seven foot tall old man and his adult daughter, and a black cat. The black cat being first shown in cemetery was an amusing touch. Good effect, also, of a small amulet being picked up from a candle lit altar, being thrown to the ground, and turning into the black cat, which immediately jumps back at the guy throwing it and attacks him.Oooh, a machete! That should up the gore. One zombie gets their googley eyes gouged out, ala The Three Stooges, then decapitated with the aforementioned machete, and their head then kicked like a soccer ball. Attempted escape from the island (where the zombies are buried under what appears to be no more than an inch of sand) in a raft proves futile, no surprise there. Later holding the cat amulet hostage saves their lives, briefly at least.The brutally violent zombie gore clashes with the variably good porn/ sex scenes; did this film start out as a horror movie which had hardcore sex scenes added, or a sex flick with gory horror scenes added? Good island locations, decent sex and nudity, and the added twist of most of the action taking place in broad daylight is unique, but the film overlong and painfully slow, and it is marred by a really awful ending, in which everything is explained away as being imagined by a mental patient, as he is banging the nude nurse in opening minutes of the film, before he is carted away, back to his padded cell.

Anyone who has seen Porno Holocaust will know exactly what to expect from Erotic Nights of the Living Dead, as the two films feature basically the same cast and plot lines. Joe D'Amato is often held in high regard by cult horror fans, and he has made some excellent classics in the genre; but to be honest, I really don't know where he's coming from with the whole porn/zombies thing. Last time I checked, the living dead aren't sexy and mixing an average zombie film with a load of porn isn't exactly a guaranteed recipe for success. As mentioned, the plot is basically the same as the one in Porno Holocaust and focuses on an isolated island. A group of sex starved (or not) people travel to the island for some reason or another, but naturally the island is infested with zombies. This doesn't stop the travellers having sex with each other every five minutes, the zombies do prove to be a bit of a nuisance. That's about the long and short of the plot really...This film is slightly better than Porno Holocaust, but only slightly. The two films suffer from the same main problems: Erotic Nights of the Living Dead is also far too long, and it takes too long for anything to happen too. The sex is mostly quite boring too, which obviously does the film no favours. The film features two of exploitation cinema's biggest stars in George Eastman (also the writer) and Laura Gemser. Gemser, however, doesn't turn up until we get over the halfway point. There's a fair bit of gore in the film, some of it quite hardcore, but it's clear that the sex is the main focus. The zombies themselves are the typical Italian style crusty looking things; not very convincing! As mentioned, the film is far too long and the plot really drags on numerous occasions, which is a shame. There really isn't much to this film; it's very much what you'd expect, so if you're looking for something substantial then look elsewhere! I can't really say that I found Erotic Nights of the Living Dead all that enjoyable so I won't be recommending it, but I guess some sleaze fans may get a kick out of it.

its been quite a while i watched the movie. i rented it because i thaught it would be some funny trash like "zombie holocaust", but i was wrong. theres nearly no gore, no story, 3 zombies (or something), no FX, JUST PLAIN NOTHING! just stupid disgusting hairy (!!!) 70-ish porn. (i watched the full uncut version by astro). that was no fun.

Contains story + **spoiler**An American millionaire wants to build a hotel on a paradisiac Caribbean island. An old man who lives there with his beautiful daughter gets an army of zombies onto his neck...The film starts with a camera angle on George Eastman´s insane eyes, accompanied by the great score of Pluto Kennedy. The rest is peculiar mixture between soft porn and zombie horror, that only one man could have made possible: Joe D´Amato, the undisputed master of Euro-trash. Now everybody should know what that means: the people in this flick f**k around at the first opportunity and with George Eastman and Laura Gemser two of the most popular Italian exploitation actors were casted. However, "Erotic Nights of the living dead" has truly its great moments! Especially the last 1/2 hour when the dead are rising is excellent, although this movie is quite similar to Lucio Fulci´s "Zombi 2". Nevertheless director Joe D´Amato created a spooky atmosphere in combination to the idyll of the Caribbean island. Highly recommended to all those people who are looking for a perfect mixture between horror and sex...
