Zombie
Directed by Lucio Fulci
After making his name in the giallo subgenre, Lucio Fulci breathed new life into his career with this ultra-gory 1979 masterpiece about a group of unfortunate Americans who foolishly set sail for a remote Caribbean island that's crawling with worm-filled zombies. Thanks to its extraordinarily gruesome FX and that still-unbelievable zombie vs. shark-scene, ZOMBIE sparked a zombie-gore trend in Italy, and landed itself a permanent spot on the list of the greatest zombie movies in the history of the subgenre. Essential viewing for all Shudder-ers!
Lucio Fulci’s ultra-gory masterpiece is a must-see classic of zombie cinema.
Cast: Tisa Farrow, Ian McCulloh, Richard Johnson, Olga Karlatos

A fantastic zombie film and will always be a classic!
Pretty good stuff. Very “uniquely simple” for its time, and with great practical effects that don’t look dated.
A terrible silly movie, but it is fun and you'll definitely laugh!
Entertaining enough if you can look past it's limitations.
So many classic scenes! Zombie v shark! Eye trauma! A must watch.
