Blue Holocaust, Buio Omega, Beyond the Darkness, In quella casa Buio omega, the Third Eye…doesn’t matter what you call this 1979...
★★ out of ★★★★★
Some will say the epicenter of the Fulci universe lie in the greatness of the gory triptych: The New York Ripper, The House by the Cemetery, and The Beyond. Others will point to the earlier, less gory but equally frightening confines of The Psychic, Don't Torture a Duckling, and A Lizard in a Woman's Skin. No matter where you fall on the Lucio Fulci spectrum it’s awfully hard to argue about his immense and ever-lasting output. Stanley Kubrik only directed 13 films. But Fulci? He directed 61.
Giallo and Texas Chainsaw mashed up? Uh, yes, please. We'd love to see that! Well, now you can! Those horror geniuses over at Netflix have officially dropped the official trailer for 2021's A Classic Horror Story.
★★★★ If you have a stomach for extreme violence
★★1/2 If you can't handle it
Nati Morti will kick your ass, rip out your guts, and rub them all over your face. It is not, however, a non-stop gore festival. It has a big story to tell, and it has some moments of real poignancy. But, yes, you will need to be able to handle getting your guts ripped out.
