Alicia I love this movie so much

Clevercell Very disappointing...

Redwarmin This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place

Gary The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

Claudio Carvalho Langston (Larry D. Johnson) is the owner of a successful nightclub and he proposes his girlfriend, the photographer Diana "Sugar" Hill (Marki Bey), to get married with him. However the kingpin Morgan (Robert Quarry) and his henchmen kill Morgan when he does not accept his offer to sell the nightclub. Sugar Hill seeks out the voodoo priestess Mama Maitresse (Zara Cully) to revenge the death of her beloved Langston. Mama summons the Lord of the Dead, Baron Samedi (Don Pedro Colley), who offers a horde of zombies to Sugar Hill take revenge. In return, she offers her soul to him. She lures Morgan while his gangsters are murdered one by one by the zombies. Meanwhile his former boyfriend, Detective Valentine (Richard Lawson), investigates the gruesome deaths of Morgan´s mobsters and suspects that the killer is using voodoo to kill them. "Sugar Hill" is a funny and cult low-budget zombie film with Blaxploitation to the best. The plot is highly entertaining and the make-up is great, with creepy zombies with half- Ping-Pong ball on each eye. My vote is seven.Title (Brazil): "Os Zumbis de Sugar Hill" ("Sugar Hill´s Zombies")

GL84 Following a nightclub opening, the murder of her boyfriend sends a woman deep into the realms of a local voodoo master and soon sends a squad of zombies to do her bidding, forcing a police officer to stop her before she completes her vengeance-filled mission.This here was a rather enjoyable entry with a lot to like about it. One of the best features of it is that it manages a fantastic mixture of zombies and voodoo here, as both are mixed together to provide a lot of fun. Although it's not entirely PC for today's standards, the attributes which are shown here to attract that manage to make for quite a solid showing here with the racial slurs and different setups to cater to that audience all giving this one a lot to like. What also helps that is that the film has the voodoo ceremony occurs early in the film which is a really fun approach to the film with there being some really fun confrontations throughout. That there's a lot of gang-members here who are involved with this are killed off at a rather nice clip here, and it does it at great intervals which gives it a feeling of never being dull or boring at all. The confrontations themselves are incredibly fun, with the one in the cornfields being really creepy as there's the unknown factor of what's happening, there's a wonderful atmosphere to it and a fantastic payoff. There's more fun from the other zombie attacks, including the one in the train-yard and a later one in a bar while the other great one is the only one without the use of the zombies, where one is forced to take his life through the use of voodoo as it winds toward the inevitable where it becomes really tense and quite chilling. The zombies are really great-looking as well, with the dirt-covered rags that are effective in giving them a long-dead, decaying look, and with they're memorable eyes and dead stare, they're quite impressive-looking. There's also the full-on fun of their resurrection sequence, which here is one of the better examples of this type of scenes around. The image of the heaving ground giving way to a series of scenes with the heads coming out of the ground is simply spectacular. Combined with all the good over the incredibly suspenseful and creepy location where it all takes place, these here are what work for the film. There wasn't a whole lot wrong with this one. The main one here is that the film has a really different view of zombies than most other films. This one has them as a gang of mindless assassins sent out to do whatever their master commands them to do, and that is such a major change from what's normally accepted in a zombie movie. That alone might be enough for some of the die-hard fans to cry foul, but then the fact that they manage to resort to using tools and weapons like any normal villain, albeit indestructible one, really loses the distinctive touch of the zombie genre. The other issue here is that there's a really useless subplot in here about buying up the club which takes up some time is also wrong, which is where the middle section loses some ground compared to the other segments. Overall, though, it's not as bad as it could've been.Rated PG: Violence and Language

Leroy Gomm A beautiful woman named Sugar who has ties with Hatian voodoo practitioners seeks supernatural vengeance after her boyfriend is beaten to death by the local mob boss and his gang of thugs for refusing to sell his bar and nightclub. Barganing with the undead voodoo priest Baron Samedi, Sugar resurrects her own mob of zombie slaves and methodically takes her revenge. For fans of blaxploitation this is a must see film. Marki Bey is stunningly beautiful, and though Sugar has made an evil pact with the devil we still want to see justice carried out. For zombie fans used to gut munching and gore, these traditional voodoo zombies might seem a bore, however they are effective and creepy here. Don Pedro Colley's Baron Samedi is a wonderfully over the top voodoo man, while Robert Quarry and Richard Lawson help round out a familiar cast of early 70's film stars.

QuietStorm2 Luckily I caught this film just as it was coming on. I love watching those old blaxploitation films! As others have said the movie was okay, for it to be a 70's film. It's not as gruesome as you would think. All in all the movie was good, although it was kind of comical to me.
