Review of City of the Living Dead (1980) by Joe P — 07 Mar 2009
One of Fulci's zombie classics. When I bought this, I expected it to be full of great gore sequences and tons of zombies roaming around New York City. My excpectations were sort of fullfilled but the zombies weren't attacking a city, they were in a little town, a rural community. I also had a problem with the zombies themselves. they didn't shamble or walk anywhere. they teleported wherever they wanted to go.
The few gore scenes that there were in the moview were done quite well. The most famous being the girl throwing up her insides. The amount of gore in this movie could have been higher since it was a zombie movie but I'm not complaining. In all I think Fulci made a decent horror movie that was pretty suspenseful.
Most messed up part of the movie: When the girl in the car throws up her insides in front of her boyfriend.
