Summary: Fulci's best film in my opinion!
Comment: I saw this in the theater with in a double feature with Dawn of the Dead and the difference in atmosphere and creepiness was so stark the film stuck with me years later. You can make an arguement that The Beyond is Fulci's best work but for me it's Zombie (Zombi 2) and this version by Media Blaster's is the best it's ever looked. I had the very rare Japanese laserdisc for awhile and this blows that away. While Italian horror is not for everyone, I highly recommend this to any zombie film fan. It slowly builds, the score if great and the FX are spectacular.

Summary: Lousy
Comment: Bad actors, no tension, compaired to Romero this is a D-movie. Really terribly bad. In every way. Poor, weak, lacks quality. Obsolete.

Summary: Gross
Comment: Since this movie claims that it is Dawn of the Dead's sequel, I will make the assumption that this film needs to be compared to Dawn of the Dead.
There are many positives to Zombie when comparing to Dawn of the Dead. For example, zombies look more like the actual walking dead, rather than the face painted zombies of Dawn. Not only do the zombies look real, but also many of the graphic scenes were gruesome and horrifying. The Dr's wife demise was probably one of the most horrific scenes in movie history.
That is where the good stuff ends, unfortunately. Just because the movie has horrifying, gruesome death scenes, doesn't mean it'll become an automatic hit with zombie fans. The thing that made Dawn of the Dead so good is the fact that there was a story to bind it all together. Zombie had no such story, although a good base was in place. The story just fell apart at the end. Not only that, it got super ridiculous at the end. I thought the final stand would have been a good fight. Instead, it turned out to be that six shooters and shotguns can shoot seemingly infinite bullets, and gas filled bottles seems to come in infinite quantities as well. Just to top it all, the movie states that New York is under a huge epidemic where zombies take over the city. When they show the scene, daily life is still happening all around with cars going back and fort and I saw what appeared to be a man walking normally on the bridge that's populate by zombies. Seems more like the movie makers just ran out of cash to close the bridge, so they just recorded right in the middle of rush hour.
The only reason I gave this movie one star is because of one thing: shark versus zombie. Just when you thought the movie couldn't get anymore ridiculous, what happens? A naked person underwater running from a shark, only to be saved by a zombie who happens to attack the shark in an attempt to eat it.
After viewing the film, I immediately, read immediately, returned the movie. It was so gross and ridiculous, I laughed at myself in even thinking there was something remotely better than Romero's film.

Summary: Zombie Vs Shark? WE GOT IT!
Comment: This movie was pretty dang good for an early 80's flick. And how can you not like a movie that has a zombie vs. shark scene in it?! Yes, this movie had its cheeseball moments, but I enjoyed it and any zombie movie fan would do well to see it once. its not scary, but its kind of neat how they did some of the effects.

Summary: just as good as Dawn
Comment: to say its "just as good as Dawn" meaning Dawn of the Dead (1978) may not mean much to you but its my favorite movie of all time therefor this is awesome!! let me tell you how i "found" this movie a few years ago i bought The Zombie Pack it contains zombi 3 4 & 5 all really bad movies but i got it because i had herd good things about zombi 2 and like the new guy i was i was like "wait what about zombi 1? and why is it spelled like that?" but any way i was so put off by 3 4 & 5 because they are so bad i sort of lost internist in 2 for a while but then early this year i got a computer and the interwebs so i got the movie (on amazon.com) along with other movie that also by the way were awesome so i had mixed expiations about it so i popped it in my X-Box360 and was saying to myself "is this as awesome as i think it is?" and about a hour in i was like "yes it most certainly is?" it is so good if you like zombie movies Italian movies HORROR MOVIES you need this movie in your collection
Dawn still ranks 1# but this is somewhere up there
