Curiosidades
The first film featuring Tom Savini as a make-up artist.

Pifias
The sign over the cemetery gate is misspelled as "Brooksville Cemetary."

Citas
'Andy': I died for you, Doc. Why shouldn't you return the favor?

Versiones alternativas
SPOILER: The version of the film released under the original working title "The Night Andy Came Home" contains an additional piece of dialogue during the final scene in Brooksville Cemetery. After Andy buries himself and dies, his mother, kneeling over his makeshift grave, can be heard saying to the policemen who have arrived there "Andy's home. Some boys never come home." In the later Gorgon Video VHS release under the title "Deathdream", this piece of dialogue was intentionally muted out so as not to reference the original working title.

"Andy, Andy, Andy. You can't die Andy..."

A young soldier called Andy is shot and killed in action, not mentioned by name but presumably in Vietnam. His family are notified of his death but then he appears at their house, only his personality has been drained and he has a murderous craving for human blood. He has become some kind of vampire/zombie hybrid, he has no fangs and sunlight doesn't burn him up, however he physically deteriorates over time and towards the end he turns into a monster. Quite how this all came about is not explained, other than his mother wishing him to come home. This was my first viewing and despite an initial doubt I was very impressed, the movie is genuinely unsettling and frightening. Director Bob Clark also made the classic "Black Christmas", both released in 1974, and the two movies use the same creepy music. Tom Savini did the special effects, which are pretty gruesome. And I will point out that this was made several years before George Romero's modern vampire movie "Martin" (1977). Highly Recommended.
