None mentioned here compare with "I Walked with a Zombie (1943) or even "White Zombie (1932)".
@Moogle: Who told you it's hardly a "B" movie? Evil Dead is the throne of "B" movies, in the days when films cost up to 10 million dollars, a couple of hardly adult people use one hundred thousand dollars saved from a student film and a bunch of dubious investors, to create a movie that is now a cult classic,
