Lucio Fulci's ZOMBIE has become my Halloween closer--for the past few years, I end every Halloween alone on the couch with a beer in my hand and some shark-fightin', eyeball-splinterin' Italian action on the TV.
On October 25th, Blue Underground is releasing ZOMBIE on Blu-Ray. We haven't gotten a review copy yet, but advance word is that the transfer is beautiful. Time to retire the thoroughly awesome Media Blasters DVD from 2004 (still my all-time favorite DVD packaging).
Better yet, some of you lucky slobs are going to get a chance to see the remastered ZOMBIE on the following silver screens:
ALBUQUERQUE Guild Cinema (Oct. 28 & 29)ATLANTA Plaza TheatreAUSTIN Alamo The Ritz (Oct. 24 & 31)AUSTIN Alamo S.
