“Cinema is everything to me. I live and breathe films… I even eat them!”
Lucio Fulci’s Zombie has maintained status as a cult favorite in the horror world for over forty years, and the score by Fabio Frizzi undoubtedly holds top-tier status as one of the most iconic and influential horror film soundtracks of all time.
Gutter Garbs have released three brand new designs by Samhain 1992 and Mister Black on short sleeve tees (plus a limited variant), a long sleeve tee, baseball tees, and a poster print in tribute to the demented marauding zombies in Lucio Fulci’s The House by the Cemetery.
Shameless Screen Entertainment is proud to present Lucio ‘The Godfather of Gore’ Fulci’s The Psychic (aka Murder to the Tune of the Seven Black Notes) like never seen before, extensively restored from new 2K-scanned materials. Jennifer O’Neill, fresh from Luchino Visconti’s The Innocent, plays Virginia, a woman who has had psychic powers since childhood when she sensed her mother’s suicide…
Shudder has announced its June 2021 lineup of macabre cinema, including new Shudder original and exclusive films like George A. Romero’s “lost” film, The Amusement Park, Damien Mc Carthy’s Caveat, Arseniy Sukhin’s Superdeep, Terence Krey’s An Unquiet Grave, and Cody Calahan’s Vicious Fun.
Lucio Fulci is so synonymous with movie splatter that it is kind of expected to see excessive amounts of bloodletting (and rimozione degli occhi) whenever his name appears during the opening credits. And whilst Touch of Death isn’t quite the same level of gorefest when compared with his earlier efforts, it still offers a generous amount of face-melting fun (literally) that made me fall in love with his giallo/horror output. Known in Italy as Quando Alice ruppe lo specchio, Touch of Death was developed as part of a series entitled I maestri del thriller aimed at the direct-to-video market.
Directed by the prolific master of the macarbre, Lucio Fulci, The Beyond is the second film in Fulci’s ‘Gates of Hell‘ trilogy; a series of horror films all connected by a unifying theme, and actress Catriona MacColl. In each of these films, one of seven gateways to hell is activated, bringing misery to those unfortunate to stumble upon the doors of death.
Shameless proudly presents Lucio Fulci’s The Beyond (aka …E tu vivrai nel terrore! L’Aldila’) from a 2K-scanned and restored source; available 13 January 2020 on Blu-ray.
Grab your Walkman, your headphones, your roller skates, and press play! ▷ Islandrocks is about to give you an audible history of Italian and American cult cinema. Underrated Swedish musician Thomas Nyholm has been creating cover versions of exploitation, cult classic theme songs.
Swedish musician Thomas Nyholm, under the moniker of Islandrocks, creates these insanely good cover versions of exploitation, cult classic theme songs, such as City of the Living Dead (1980), Suspiria (1977), The New York Ripper (1982), Zombie Flesh Eaters (1979) and Sgt. Kabukiman N.Y.P.D. (1990).

Lucio Fulci’s The House by the Cemetery (1981) is notorious in the United Kingdom for being one of the 39 movies that were prosecuted under the Obscene Publications Act in the 1980s. Dubbed a ‘video nasty’ by the garbage British tabloids, The House by the Cemetery was effectively banned from distribution and personal possession…
If you are prepared to endure the awful dubbing, The House by the Cemetery is deserving of its cult reputation.
Adapted from H.P. Lovecraft’s short story The Colour Out of Space, David Keith’s 1987 directional debut The Curse is remarkably faithful to the source material; albeit poorly executed.
I must admit that I was unaware that The Curse was a tale of Lovecraftian horror until I realised the thematic similarities to Daniel Haller’s Die, Monster, Die! (1965); wherein a radioactive meteorite hits Earth with horrific consequences.
