Zombie

Zombi 2 (Titled Zombie in America) isnt really a sequel. In a marketing gimmick, it was billed as a semi-sequel to George Romeros Dawn of the Dead (titled Zombi in Italy), but beyond spectacular zombie effects, the two actually have very little in common, narratively or tonally. Zombi 2 follows Anne Bowles (Farrow), a young woman who heads off to a remote island to help her ailing father, unaware that the land is under a voodoo curse that brings the dead back to life.

Helmed by Giallo maestro Lucio Fulci, Zombi 2 brings none of the social commentary or nuanced character drama of its marketed predecessor, but what it lacks in pedigree, it makes up for in stylistic panache and first-rate zombie action. Fulci is no stranger to the zombie genre, but Zombi 2 was his most conventional approach to the living dead before he got veered in a paranormal and interdimensional with his unofficial trilogy City of the Living Dead, The Beyond, and The House by The Cemetery. Zombi 2 gives all its love to set pieces and practical effects and it never aspires to be much more than zombie trash. However, its the very best trash top of the heap and it boasts some of the most inventive and flawlessly rendered zombie set pieces of all time (zombie vs shark is the best, but it isnt the only). Zombi 2 isnt deep, but swims along brilliantly in the shallows.
