Zombie
In Lucio Fulci's genre classic "Zombi 2", the dead rise once again to terrorize and consume the flesh of the living, this time Caribbean style! Those new to Fulci should note "Island of the Flesh-Eaters", "Zombi 2", and the more commonly known "Zombie" all refer to the same film. Though there is no "Zombi 1", Fulci's film was titled "Zombi 2" to capitalize on the commercial success of Romero's "Dawn of the Dead". Though marketed as a sequel in Italy, the only similarities to Romero's classic are the title and the fact that the dead rise to eat the flesh of the living. Instead of being a metaphor for consumerism, "Zombi 2" is a straight-out adventure story that ends in a horrific, apocalyptic nightmare. The plot is fairly straightforward, and more or less exists simply as a structure to hang scenes of extreme gore and terror on. Dr. Bowles's boat floats into New York Harbor missing its crew and carrying an undead passenger. The doctor's daughter (Tisa Farrow), dead set on finding out what happened to her father, teams up with journalist Peter West (Ian McCulloch) and heads to the cursed island of Matool, where a zombie epidemic is growing and Dr. Bowles's friend, Dr. Menard (Richard Johnson), is desperately trying to find a cure. Will Anne find her father? Will Dr. Menard find a cure? Will our heroes escape? In all honesty, who really cares? Because those in the "know" already know you don't come to a Fulci film looking for Shakespeare. What "Zombi 2" lacks in plot development and continuity, it more than makes up for in atmosphere, intensity, and of course the trademark Fulci gore. Some of the unique high points are the never-duplicated zombie-versus-shark vignette, the rising of the Spanish zombie conquistadores, and Fulci's trademark eye shot. Fans of Italian/apocalyptic/cannibal/zombie films should not miss "Zombi 2". Along with "The Beyond", it defines the genre. "--Rob Bracco"
