"To be honest, I completely agree with the title of this film. We truly need to simply just let sleeping corpses lie. Cuz if we did, we wouldn't have to worry about all this zombie apocalypse craziness. And there would be no need to have to publish any handbooks depicting how to handle the situation. Not to mention that our delectable edible brains (a cornerstone of any zombie's nutritious breakfast) would be able to sleep alot easier at night. "

The Living Dead at Manchester Morgue (1974)

“The plot: a young antiquarian goes on vacation. On the way he meets a young woman on her way to the farm of his sister. In the field she is attacked by a strange drifter who allegedly had been dead for a week. The reason is a new experimental machine the Ministry of Agriculture, through ultrasound, kills pests and insects. When the couple arrives at the farm, they find a man killed by this spectral zombie. The plot thickens with the police investigation, he suspects that all is matter of Satanic hippies and drug addicts.

Interesting spanish-italian co-production is highly influenced by "The Night of the Living Dead", the mythical George A. Romero's film, in their argument and quite relevant details of the action.
