In short (and this time I mean short): Garden of the Dead (1974)

A group of formaldehyde sniffing chain gang prisoners escape, only to die during the flight. For no reason at all, they revive as clown-faced, garden implement wielding zombies with a tendency to say stuff like "Kill the living!" (or something in that sense - I'm not starting this thing up again to check my memory) and attack their place of imprisonment. More formaldehyde-sniffing ensues. Also some bloodless killing.

Oh, look, it's got not budget, no talent and makes no sense! Sounds like a fun time? Unfortunately, this one really isn't. It is just bad in the blandest way possible, without any charm, weirdness, madness or spark of life to speak of.

Avoid (yes, even YOU!).
