This week, we take a look at the trailer for Lucio Fulci’s Zombi 2
While this movie is known in the states as “Zombie”, the Italian title is Zombi 2 (the original “Zombi” is actually George Romero’s Dawn of the Dead – go figure). In this film, a mysterious boat floats into the New York Harbor. The harbor patrol believes the boat to abandoned, but there’s actually a zombie aboard who attacks the the patrolmen. This leads to an investigation to figure out where the boat and the zombie came from.
We’ll be taking a look at Zombi 2 and it’s sequels, of which there are 3, in the coming weeks so stay tuned for our reviews.
Over the last 2 years at Internal Bleeding we have tackled a lot of strange movies, both with sick and twisted stories, and those with questionable moral values… or at least we thought! Deadgirl makes those movies look like the Disney Sunday Movie in comparison. To give away the plot of the story in the opening paragraph not only ruins the dark and disturbing premise of the film but also tests the moral fiber of this website for describing something that not everyone in this world is prepared to read. I’m sure you think that we are just over-reacting and hyping up the storyline too much, but trust us, it’s not for the faint of heart!
For this week’s Trailer Tuesday, we bring you the 1988 zombie film Flesheater!
What you see in this trailer is truly what you get, as it runs through most of the movie from start to finish. While it looks fairly cheesy and the acting is pretty bad, it’s actually a really fun zombie film. Check out our review of Zombie Nosh for more info on this underrated zombie classic. It’s definitely a great film to watch around Halloween. You’ll show up for the zombies and the totally awesome costume party, but you’ll stay for Night of the Living Dead’s original zombie Bill Hinzman!
I’m not usually a fan of horror comedy movies. To be more specific, I’m not usually a fan of zombie movies that try to be comedies. Shawn of the Dead is one exception to that rule, and the original Return of the Living Dead is another. What usually happens is that they try too hard to be funny, and either end up too hokey or don’t do the horror element very well. Shawn of the Dead and Return of the Living dead put the immediacy of the horror first, and add the comedy bits on top with the realistic character portrayals, and that’s what make them good movies. Thankfully, Return of the Living Dead II continues building on top of the foundation that the first film in the series started.
This week for Trailer Tuesday, we take a look at the 2008 film Deadgirl:
Since we recently were able to watch this film, I’m not going to give you the usual song and dance, but instead here’s a short summary: Deadgirl tells the story of two high school friends who find the a girl in an abandoned mental institution that cannot die. What follows is a morality tale on right and wrong, and how love and friendship can get in the way of that.
Look soon for one of our dueling reviews on Deadgirl.
