I honestly don't know if I can say enough bad about this movie. Don't be fooled by the fact that it's a Lucio Fulci movie; it actually is. But it's not a "zombie" movie, if you're looking for zombies. It's incredibly stupid, slow, dull, uninteresting, full of bratty kids (that you hope will get devoured by zombies the first 5 minutes into the movie), and just... I have no words. This may very well have ruined my fondness for Lucio Fulci films. The ground that Fulci stood on was (for me) already getting shakier with _The Beyond_ (why everyone loves that is BEYOND my comprehension) and then recently _The House by The Cemetery_. But those at least had some gore and gruesome parts in it. This...This was just completely ridiculous. There was nothing - NOT ONE THING - that was remotely "scary" or even creepy in this film; it was just STUPID. And the scene with the stuffed birds... I stopped myself from fast-forwarding through it but what an insult to the intelligence of his viewers. How completely stupid. Do NOT - I don't care if you're the hardest of the die-hard Lucio Fulci fans - DO NOT waste your time on this steaming tub of pig dung. This wasn't even "So Bad It's Good"; this was just plain AWFUL. I hate myself for wasting an hour and a half of my life sitting through this.

PS: You're **an hour and seventeen minutes** into a film that's only an hour and twenty-eight minutes long, before you finally see a rotting arm come crashing through a wall and you think, _"Yay! Finally...some good ol' rotting corpses!"_ but do not be misled: it's only an arm, and the scene is only a few seconds long. This was NOT a "good zombie film". This was not a "good" anything film. This movie SUCKED. Period.
