ZOMBIE 1979 (SHRIEK SHOW)

The all time classic italian zombie movie from Lucio Fulci!! This classic tells he tale of a zombie invasion on a small island, and the people who must fight for survival on it. The plot is threadbare, but the effects are what make this movie a real treat for horror fans. See heads split wide open, eyes implaed on wooden stakes and much, much more.
This contains some of the best gore effects in a modern film, and this also catapulted Fulci to cult status in the USA. Tisa Farrow, Ian McCulloch, Richard Johnson and the lovely Olga Karlatos do a great job with their roles.

The iconic symbol for zombies in Italy is the one from this film which is the shot os a rotting corpse coming out of the grave with worms in it's eye. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!
