ZRC Salutes: Lucio Fulci!
We owe a lot to Lucio Fulci. I can think of few other directors whose works in any genre were subjected to more censorship than Fulci’s gore-riddled works. He pushed the envelopes of gore, special effects, and at times, even good taste. His vision was unique, and it should come as no surprise that Quentin Tarantino, Robert Rodriguez, and Hostel director Eli Roth all list him as a major influence.
Fulci’s zombie movies include Zombi II (1979), City of the Living Dead (aka The Gates of Hell (1980), The Beyond (aka Seven Doors of Death)(1981), The House by the Cemetary (1981), and Zombi III (1988). For creating this impressive list of zombie cinema, the ZRC salutes Lucio Fulci!
