Shock Waves is a 1977 horror film. Its cast features Peter Cushing and John Carradine.During World War II, Those Wacky Nazis created the Death Corps, nigh-invincible troopers made from the dead German soldiers. After carrying out few missions, they disappeared into the sea at the end of the war.An undersea quake years later awakens them from their rest, and they go after shipwrecked holiday-goers who are stranded on an island nearby.

Zombie Gait
 Shock Waves / int_55172a70
comment
Zombie Gait: The Death Corps exhibit a stiff walking style. It's a little different from the shambling, uncoordinated stagger of most zombies; since they're (kind of) intelligent, they merely walk stiffly but purposefully toward a goal.

Freak Out: It is, after all, a horror movie. Some characters, like Keith, have phobias that don't show up until catastrophic freak outs.

Peekaboo Corpse: Rose goes on a swim in the lake, only to run into Dobbs' corpse. Norris' (the captain) corpse is also discovered this way. As the castaways are rowing ashore, Norman's wife is startled by Norris floating face up underneath them through the boat's glass bottom.
