Tensions begin to build as months go on, and they come to realize that they've fallen prey to consumerism. Taking stock of their surroundings, they arm themselves, lock down the mall, and destroy the zombies inside so they can eke out a living-at least for a while. If you do you’ll help keep the This Is Horror ship afloat with some very welcome remuneration.Following the events of Night of the Living Dead (1968), we follow the exploits of four survivors of the expanding zombie apocalypse as they take refuge in an abandoned shopping mall following a horrific SWAT evacuation of an apartment complex.

If you are a fan of zombies, extreme cinema or classic Euro-horror then you really can’t afford to be without this excellent two disc release from Arrow Video. This is a small quibble however in what is an otherwise unmissable package. ![]() Not all the special features are of the highest quality though, one is simply a film of somebody flipping through a copy of the original script for ten minutes (yes really) and another is a film of a Q&A session with composer Fabio Frizzo from the Glasgow Film Theatre that looks like it was shot with a camera that someone smuggled in inside a bag. There are plenty of extras and special features including an interview with McCulloch and a fascinating documentary on the rise and fall of the Italian zombie film. Namely the gratuitous scene of an eyeball being pierced by a splinter and the underwater battle between a zombie and a shark (yes a shark!).Īrrow Video have not only restored all of the previously missing footage, they’ve also painstakingly restored the quality of the original print, making this probably the single best version of the film ever to appear on the UK home market. Though to Sacchetti’s credit he did come up with both the scenes that have made this film infamous. The script by Dardano Sacchetti (but credited to his wife Elisa Briganti) is a fairly pedestrian attempt to blend horror and adventure movies, but Fulci’s imaginative and innovative direction lift the film to a whole new level. It was also one of the films that created the ‘video nasty’ hysteria of the 1980s here in Britain, when a loophole in the law allowed Vipco to release a version on video that included the one minute and forty-six seconds worth of cuts that the BBFC had demanded. Shot as an unofficial sequel to Dawn of the Dead, to cash in on the popularity of Romero’s film in Italy, this is the film that cemented Fulci’s cult status as an extreme horror director. What follows is one of the most jaw dropping, heart pounding, undead jungle romps ever committed to celluloid. Only Dr Menard (Richard Johnson), who works at the local mission, refuses to leave no matter how much his wife Paola (Olga Karlatos) implores him. Matool is not a safe place though, the dead have begun to walk and are attacking the living causing the natives to desert the island. Peter and Anne head to the tropics and hook up with an island hopping couple Bryan (Fulci stalwart Al Cliver) and Susan (Auretta Gray) who agree to take them to Matool on their boat. As Peter himself points out he only has a job because his uncle owns the paper. Peter’s Editor (a cameo from director Lucio Fulci) agrees to bank roll an all expenses paid trip to find out more, most probably because he’s glad of any excuse to get rid of Peter. ![]() A note found on board the boat points them to the tropical island of Matool. Journalist Peter West (played by Ian McCulloch star of 70s cult TV favourite The Survivors) soon gets wind of this and ends up pretending to make out with Anne, the daughter of the schooner’s owner (played by Mia Farrow’s sister Tisa), in order to avoid getting arrested for trespassing on the yacht where they were both looking for clues. They find a squalid, cramped interior aboard the yacht, filled with rotting food and a towering, corpulent walking corpse that takes a bite out of one of the Patrol Guards before toppling into the water when the other guard unloads his weapon into it.
