Zombie Flesh Eaters Full Movie Download

In 1979, this film had 101 seconds chopped out by the BBFC for its UK theatrical release. Twenty years later, Stonevision Entertainment have released a DVD that trumpets "EXTREME VERSION!!", "MORE GORE THAN ALLOWED BEFORE!!" and "INCLUDES MATERIAL BANNED SINCE 1983!!" - but it's not uncut. It's just less incomplete than the previous version. Its run time is 87 minutes 7 seconds and it's missing 23 seconds, apparently including eyeball trauma and yummy close-ups of zombies feeding. Not knowing all this, I watched the shortened 1999 edit and wrote the following...
I found much to like here. The first few zombie scenes have fabulous set-ups and are wonderfully inventive. I like the cinematography, especially on the island. Fulci has a good eye. I like the music. I like the voodoo angle, which always adds spice to a film. I like the tits! Hell, I even liked the little details - the creaking noises you hear on a ship on the sea, for instance.
However all these great ingredients don't get decent gore payoffs. Eventually you realise that all this lovely atmosphere is just sorta sitting there, which is a shame. It would only take a few extra gross-out shots to improve this film's impact beyond measure. The gore improves during the last third of the movie, but by then we're dealing with more straightforward base-under-siege material, zombies everywhere and guns a-blazing. This is perfectly good stuff, but I'd have preferred the atmosphere of the first hour to have more effect on the audience.
The zombies are interesting. These are *really* mindless dead, not even reacting when a potential victim screams a few feet away while they eat. Most of the time, they don't even open their eyes! But there's some lovely make-up here, with juicy touches like facefuls of maggots.
The story is simple, a young woman and a British newspaper reporter travel to the Antilles Islands in order to locate the womans father. When they arrive they find her father has died of a mysterious disease, the island cursed by voodoo and has been taken over by hoards of flesh-eating zombies. When the earth spits out the dead they will return to suck the blood from the living!
We are delighted the star of Zombie Flesh Eaters, actor Ian McCulloch, horror stalwart and veteran of the classic television series Survivors will be with at the DCA not just in gloriously livid gore splattered Technicolor but in the flesh for this special screening. He will be introducing the film and present for a question and answer session. Learn from a master the secret of surviving a zombie attack.
In this edition we offer the score on 180 grams black LP, gatefold, featuring the iconic photographic zombie of the original poster on the cover, printed inner sleeve with liner notes by Antonella Fulci, Fabio Frizzi and Daniele De Gemini, mastering by Enrico De Gemini.
Forget adding Romance, Comedy, Social Commentary, or Satire etc into the plot, this film is just straight forward Zombie goodness. The music is amazing, the set pieces are great (Zombie Vs Shark? Get In There!), there is some quality norkage, and lets not forget the most famous Eye Gouging scene ever put to film. Zombie Flesh Eaters is the ultimate in zombie filmdom.
An abandoned boat in New York Harbour unleashes a deadly flesh crazed Zombie cargo... A Young American woman and a journalist investigate a tropical island where a deadly disease is making the dead walk... Soon, thoughts of getting to the bottom of the murderous curse will be forgotten, as Fulci s walking corpses overwhelm the living and reports come in that the Big Apple is swarming with the living dead...
Death Waltz Recording Company is proud to exhume another classic from their catalogue in lieu of demand from the dead and the living. From the twisted mind of Lucio Fulci comes ZOMBI 2 aka ZOMBIE FLESH EATERS. A notorious gore classic and the poster child for the video nasty generation, the film gently transports the viewer from the concrete jungle of New York City to the mysterious Caribbean island of Matool, with some shark versus zombie shenanigans along the way. Our musical guide for this tour de gore is the inimitable Fabio Frizzi and his magic synthesiser.
Zombie Flesh Eaters is a 1979 Italian zombie film directed by Lucio Fulci. It was adapted from an original screenplay by Dardano Sacchetti to serve as a sequel to George A. Romero's Dawn of the Dead, which was released in Italy with the title Zombi. It stars Tisa Farrow, Ian McCulloch and Richard Johnson, and features a score by frequent Fulci collaborator Fabio Frizzi.
