    [Highly rated reviewer]

    Every moment of this film is like an artistic scene. This has to be the most beautiful zombie film of all time. The acting is amazing and fascinating. The direction is truly phenomenal. I really loved everything about this violent yet beautiful classic masterpiece of modern horror cinema. I cannot praise it highly enough. Be warned that it is really violent and a little twisted in places.

    If you enjoyed Braindead, The Evil Dead and similar films then I swear you're gonna love this. If however these films aren't your cup of tea then stop reading now!

    I wasn't expecting much from this film, Italian budget horror is always bad but this actually had me giggling almost all the way through and two weeks later I still enjoy replaying certain scenes in my mind.

    Let me explain.

    The concept is simple enough, 2 cemetery workers bury the dead by day and then kill them again when they rise at night.

    The dubbing is terrible, the translations are sometimes just plain bizarre but the master-stroke is the comic element provided by the interactions between the lead characters and the people/corpses they encounter.

    I thought that the special effects were very good for the year and Everett makes the film his own just like Bruce Campbell does in The Evil Dead.

    Highly recommended viewing for all gore lovers.

    NB: Don't be put off by the few love scenes they are purely soft-core and add to the Italian-ness of the production.

    An Arty farty pile of tosh, story free, boring and badly acted.

    A dull publicity vehicle for the totally talent free Rupert Everret ( I fell asleep after an hour)

    If you want a good gorey horror avoid this.

    Go for House by the cemetery, Dawn of the dead (the original) etc.

    This is over-hyped Poo Poo !

    Really awful, slow, amateurish film, and Rupert Everett's acting is excruciatingly bad. Not at all frightening. A waste of an evening. Don't bother.

  • Good but not great.

    Rated - 3.0 stars

    Well, what can I say, this film has been on my reserve list for ages, and then when it comes, it's not actually that good.

    It is original though as far as the zombie genre goes, and mixes horror, comedy and soft porn pretty well, and the acting is good, delivering comic lines with extreme naturalism, but from the moment I saw the first zombie, I knew it wasn't going to be great.

    There is a couple of scenes that are pretty laughable, as in that bad, but there are some good ones too. There;s quite a bit of nudity with both sexes, so if you want to see big breasts or a nude Rupert Everett, then this is one for you.

    If you want to see a great zombie film though, sadly it is not for you.

    I do wonder what people make of the ending though....

    ...but this didn't do a great deal for me. No, I definitely wasn't paying enough attention - I watched it about ten days ago and can remember nothing about it.
