Okay, a better movie than I thought. Apparently, this has been released under a bunch of different titles, including "Ghost Brigade", "Lost Brigade" "Killing Box" and the one IMDb prefers to use, "Grey Knight".
The plot is that a Confederate Regiment thought to be destroyed a year earlier is back as undead, and slaughtering Confederate and Union soldiers indiscriminately. A union troop seeks to hunt them down with the help of a captured Confederate Colonel who previously commanded the troops.
Also along with this band of misfits is a mute slave girl who is part of a the tribe that imprisoned the evil spirits to start with.
This movie is made with the help of a lot of Civil War recreation buffs, and overall it looks pretty good. It had a decent budget, and good actors.
There's some choppy editing, and some things the characters do make no sense. (Such as why bring the mute girl along to start with if you don't know she can help? Why handcuff her to the POW Colonel and then forget about doing it again later when he escapes three times?) The battle at the end when they figure out that the zombies can be killed by silver, and they just happen to have a whole wagon-load of silver that was looted by some fleeing Rebels... Wow, that was convenient!
