Arrow Video - City Of The Living Dead

I second that

I've always admired the scene where Bob is strolling the streets and the wind is blowing grit everywhere. Very effective and sums up the atmosphere of the film...

Good let's keep it coming - although dudes strolling might not sell the most copies? Might have to lose some clothes at least!

I'd love to help but I haven't seen the film. This is therefore a release that I'm really looking forward to as, great though the other upcoming Arrow releases are, I've seen them many times! There's something special about an old film that has slipped under my radar and is now being remastered and released making those who have seen it champ at the bit.

Lucky you - it's my Fulci fave.

How about a giant picture of Bob getting his head drilled then?

Or some gut spewing?

Or the priest bleeding from his eyes? While hanging from a tree! Ha

[Nosferatu@Cult Labs]

And that's why I'm desperate to see it!

That's not a bad idea.

City of the Living Dead is a real cult title but with the effort going into it, would be nice if this acted as an "introduction" to Italian horror for a whole new generation (because seeing how jam packed this DVD/ BD will be they might pick it up sight unseen!)... Therefore, for my two pennies, would be nice if the cover emphasised the classy atmosphere of this one instead of the gore: the colourful mist-shrouded landscapes, the bleeding eyes, the zombies rising from the tombs and the underground catacombs...

But just my two pennies!

I agree completely, Calum. Despite the high gore quotient, what always lingers in my mind with this film is the stange, nightmarish atmosphere. A cover design that encapsulates this aspect of the visuals could be a great success.
