Review of Zombie

Zombie (1979)
7/10
Excellent for some things, bad for others
5 July 2022
A film that starts almost quietly, with low quality sequences of zombies not very suggestive and not very engaging, but which gradually improve more and more until they are terrifying towards the end. In some scenes the emotional reactions of the characters to certain events seem almost non-existent while others are very trashy (e.g. The woman who stares terrified a zombie but stays where she is and doesn't even attempt to escape, or the four people who are in a wood full of zombies but decide to split into couples). In many scenes, however, there is a lot of scary atmosphere and in others a little bit less; some shot are amazing and have a very good photography, some others not; all in all the plot is very good and the gory style of Fulci is stunning and result of a very creative mind. I think you won't regret to watch it, it's totally worth.
