TonThere is more than one candidate for the title of Godfather of Gore, but Italian film producer Lucio Fulci has more say than most. The director seemed sickly unable to photograph a person falling off a cliff without inserting a close-up of their face scraping the rock during the descent. This is a director who seems to be unable to shoot eyes without the urge to squeeze, string or remove the eyes. Welcome to the world of Fulci.
A movie called Zombie Flesh Eaters brought Fulci to international attention.At least, that’s its British title; its Italian studio called it Zombi 2 to capitalize on the success of George A Romero’s Dawn of Death, which was already Italy As a zombie. In the United Kingdom in the early 1980s, “Zombie Carnivores” finally appeared on the list of video pranks by the head of the public prosecution department, mainly due to close-ups of eyes pierced by huge fragments. Other highlights that are slightly more family-friendly include underwater battles between zombies and sharks, and the amazing sight of zombies staggering across the Brooklyn Bridge in New York. (Don’t look too close, otherwise you will see cars driving in both directions in the background; the budget is not large enough to stop traffic.)
Fulch also has two more movies on the DPP’s annoying list-Beyond and The House by the Cemetery-for die-hard British horror fans, it’s as good as giving them a stamp of approval.These two, together with the City of the Living Dead, formed the Hell’s Gate trilogy later called Fulci: characterized by a tortuous narrative with a vague Lovecraft theme (Dunwich was cancelled), setting The creepy for Fabio Frizzi Avant-garde Rock Sheet MusicActions that are a bit like sleepwalking often stop due to procrastinating scenes, such as a girl vomiting her intestines, a stabbing spit out maggots, or a man’s face being eaten by a spider. Men didn’t try to escape; when Fulci’s victims were slowly decapitated or cesarean, they tended to stand or lie down, and even (in Aenigma in 1988) were attacked by snails, which gives you a sense of the speed at which these things happen. learn.
After Zombie Flesh Eaters, Fulci’s name became almost synonymous with the staggering dead. As long as there are zombies in his movie, supporters will entrust him with full authority.They were absent in his crazy Edgar Allan Poe adaptation This black cat, This was filmed in a sleepy home country village, and starred Patrick Magee at his craziest time, but they reappear in the conquest, Fulch’s vivid contribution to the genre of swordsmanship and witchcraft. But after the Hell’s Gate trilogy, despite occasional highlights such as creepy Manhattan babies, his career has declined all the way, starting with the New York Ripper (1982), where the murderer Donald Duck’s voice It is misogyny that makes the massacre almost as annoying as it is.
Before Zombie Flesh Eaters, Fulci had two decades of filmmaking experience, although it was not until the DVD era that fans were able to access the early works. Like many Italians of his time, he jumped from one genre to another based on box office trends.Incredibly, his first 16 feature films are comedies, many of which are based on Franco and Siccio, Italy’s own Abbott and Costello. In 1969, he also directed sex comedies, several excellent Italian westerns and a historical drama “Beatrice Sensi”. He later produced “Prohibited Items”, which is a curious example of listlessness. Violent Italian crime thriller genre called Policemen, The director seemed to cheer him up for a scene where a drug addict sprayed a blowtorch on his face.
As a person who was taken aback by Fulci’s bloody festival in the 1980s, I now find myself more attracted to his mysterious thriller; blood is just as red, but the director seems to be more involved. One above the other It was a film set in San Francisco in 1969. It could almost be Fulci’s interpretation of Vertigo. Strippers were added to the novel merkins and Marisa Mell instead of Kim Novak.Hallucination Lizard in woman skin Beginning in 1971, partying naked on the London Underground (this is a dream!) and Florinda Bolkan were attacked by bats at Alexandra Palace; Stanley Baker also looked confused. Bolkan also suffered a cruel fate in “Don’t Torture the Ducklings” in 1972; she was unjustly accused of murdering children in a village in southern Italy; the film is now regarded as a foresight condemning the Catholic Church.
last but not least, Psychic It’s almost probably Fulci’s transformation of Antonioni since 1977 explode. Jennifer O’Neill (Jennifer O’Neill) plays a newlywed wife who is overwhelmed by the phantoms of the body on the wall of her husband’s villa, broken mirrors, and fragments of a hole. Most of the time in the film is trying to These pieces are pieced together.The original title of this movie, Sette Note (black seven notes) in Nero is not only more evocative than English, but also Bixio-Frizzi-Tempera’s Seven-note music theme (Quentin Tarantino borrowed for Killing Bill: Volume 1) proved to be an integral part of the plot. Antonioni’s comparison is not entirely joking, because Fulci’s work is also elegantly shot, usually dreamlike, and full of long stories, even though Antonioni’s work is clearly deficient in decapitation and dismemberment.But as Fulch once said: “Violence Yes Italian art. “It’s as if he started to prove it.
