Zombi II


 
 

The most well-known of Lucio Fulci's films, Zombi II sparked an obsession with zombie films across Europe and made Fulci a horror icon. Upon its release in 1979, Zombi II was ridiculed for having no connection to the original Zombi and was scorned for its extremely bloody content, yet the film was a tremendous success.
