Movie Reviews of City of the Living Dead
Movie Review: One of my favorite horror movies of all time!
Summary: 5 Stars
In the town of Dunwich in New York where witches were burnt along time ago, a catholic priest hangs himself and unleashes evil spirits into the town. A journalist (Christopher George) and psychic (Catriona MacColl) come from New York to Dunwich, where they must try to find the grave of the priest that killed himself before All Saint's Day or else the ghouls and demonic spirits will take over all souls.
Gruesome and exciting yet H.P. Lovecraft-esque Italian supernatural horror thriller from Lucio Fulci is one of his greatest and coolest movies ever. Sure the plot is flimsy sounding but the film does pack a nice wallop of shocks galore with memorable moments like the spirit of the priest making a girl cry blood like a stigmata statue then throwing up blood and organs or the drilling sequences. I also love how Fulci makes creatures that mix both zombies and ghosts into one especially whom have the power to teleport, there's also some good tension presented in this movie like a woman being buried alive as she's suffering which would go under the viewer's skin. The music score by Fabio Frizzi is terrific as it really adds the mood of this atmospheric and gory as hell thrill-ride, this is one flick that will please gorehounds, zombie fans and HP Lovecraft lovers alike.
This DVD contains a great transfer with excellent picture and sound with decent extras like trailer, Bio of Fulci and Radio Spots/Photo Gallery.
