Hunger. That runaway led to hard hungry years for a 12-year-old. Young Murray chopped wood, picked cotton, hired out as a farm hand, led a prodigal outdoor life. Deep within him was another kind of hunger-a hunger for learning which he has not fully satisfied to this day. He attended rural schools here and there, now and then, and finally got admitted to a freshwater college in Parker County, Texas, called Springtown Male & Female Institute.

...those unfortunate people who have been resurrected from the grave and placed in peonage by villainous masters. With one of these voodooistic overlords a family of white planters comes in contact, thus giving Zombie its motivation. For the most part wretchedly acted (including the work of Miss Pauline Starke, deep-voiced onetime film actress) and beset with deplorably written dialog, Zombie has at least four authentic shudders for your spine...
