Reinhard, written by Jean-Claude Roy, and starring Véronique Catanzaro, Kathryn Charly, Sylvie Novak, Anthea Wyler, Laurence Mercier, Patrick Guillemin, Gabor Rassov, Christina Schmidt, and Cornélia Wilms. Toxic waste causes a zombie outbreak in France.
In France, the CEO of a chemical company looks to cheaply dispose of their plant's chemical waste. He and his secretary come up with the idea to dump it illegally. When the secretary contaminates a milk tanker, it causes several deaths in the town. The toxic waste, illegally dumped in a nearby graveyard, then causes the recently dead townspeople to rise as ravenous zombies, who seek revenge on the unscrupulous company and its employees.
Revenge of the Living Dead Girls premiered in France on 16 September 1987.[1] It was released on DVD on 8 August 2006.[2]
