Shock Waves
Shock Waves is a 1977 horror film. Its cast features Peter Cushing and John Carradine.
During World War II, Nazi scientists created The Death Corps, nigh-invincible troopers made from 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.
