City of the Living Dead
Directed by Lucio Fulci
A reporter and a psychic try to close the gates of hell before zombies invade Earth in the first of Italian gore maestro Lucio Fulci's "Gates of Hell" trilogy. After a priest guarding the gates dies, Mary and Peter learn that his death created the opportunity for the dead to rise in only a few days. Soon enough, gruesome things start happening - including the film's most famous sequence where a female victim literally pukes her guts out. If George Romero's living dead films are too tame for you, Fulci's films should satisfy all your creepy cravings. Contains violence and gore.

Not a zombie film, don’t let the title mislead you as it did me. Overall very boring and pretty much just a gorefest for the second half of the movie.
Very stupid. Zombies eat people. This isn’t a zombie movie. It took way too long for something to happen. It’s too far fetched and so fake. Not worth my time.
First off zombies were plain and boring, and took to long to come
Another overrated Italian turdfest. Took a girlfriend to see this back in the day and she dumped afterwards. Not the violence but how DAMN BORING it was.
4/5
