I thought this was rather good. I like Fuci for his ability to build
atmosphere rather than for gore and this film unlike for instance
City of The Living Dead had some narrative cohesion. Strong
actors also seem to help fulci...magee here and Richard
Johnstone in Zombie.
The scenes in the graveyard are the best. Sometimes a film that is
just a collage of eyegrabbing visuals can work well e.g The
Beyond....but sometimes its nice to have something approaching
either a story or an intellectual idea to back them up. Here the idea
of recording the dead and attempting to go beyond..is rather well
handled.
