Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Tweetienator Le notti del terrore (Burial Ground: The Nights Of Terror) is one of those zombie gems of the 70/80s who got everything right: nice boops, flesh and blood craving and mean looking zombies, lots of fine guts and gore of the victims gets spilled, and a nice psychedelic soundtrack that just fits into that genre so well. Also, everything is cooked with the nonchalance of a B-trash movie, bad yes, but the kind of good bad. Well, no Oscar material for sure and you won't watch it for the dialogues or intelligent story but those kinds of movies are really entertaining if you are REALLY into the undead/zombie genre. And thx not one piece of fx/CGI nonsense at those times!

Leofwine_draca If you thought that ZOMBIE FLESH EATERS was a low budget, poorly-made film, then wait until you see this rip-off! Andrea Bianchi disposed of a story entirely and instead hired Gino de Rossi (son of Giannetto) to create as many gut-wrenchingly gruesome moments as he possibly could on the film's poor budget. The plot consists of a group of people hiding out in a variety of locations - a mansion, a monastery, a model storeroom (!) and being picked off one by one by a pack of unruly zombies which have risen from the local caves after an interfering professor accidentally re-awoke their corpses! Just about everything in this movie is inept and that's what makes it fun. The lighting is almost non-existent; scenes are either bright or dark with nothing in between, no shadows for suggestion or anything. The dubbing is particularly stilted with inappropriate voices for the actors and actresses which don't match their characters at all. The sound varies between a laid-back jazz score and some weird computer noises in the zombie scenes which don't have the desired effect. The zombies themselves look pretty mouldy and scary thanks to some good masks and make-up, although you can see human skin in between the joins once too often for my liking. They are also tool users and grab a wide variety of weapons to help with their conquest. Although they are some of the slowest shamblers ever to grace a horror movie, they seem to have no trouble cornering the humans at every stage, at one point disguising themselves as monks to capture an unwilling victim!The movie is full of weird and wonderful characters. The first person we meet is a professor with a huge beard. Upon encountering the zombies, he cries "Stand back - I'm your friend!" Hilarious. The most memorable character of all is 'Michael' a supposed teenage boy actually played by a dwarf actor (why? Was there a shortage of child actors around or would they not allow a child to partake in some of the more adult scenes?) who sniffs a piece of rag and says "Momma! This cloth smells of death!". He also has Oedipal desires which come to a climax in the infamous scene at the conclusion! Another guy shouts "Whatever it is, it's not human!" on his encounter with a zombie - but isn't that obvious? Many scenes explicitly rip-off ZOMBIE FLESH EATERS, like a guy having his leg grabbed while embracing a girl ("Who are you?!"), a zombie rising from the ground, and a scene where a girl is pulled toward a shard of glass and killed. It's genuinely funny throughout, especially in scenes where people just stand and watch the zombies as they come towards them! Hello - you're about to get eaten - don't you think you better do something? Those crazy Italians! Other amusing moments have the zombies setting a man-trap in the garden for their next victim and working as car park attendants! One of them is particularly handy with knives and must have worked in a circus before he died.The setting of the deserted mansion is actually pretty eerie, although again it has been stolen from NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD. There's an atmosphere of unease in the sense that a zombie could be lurking behind any door or corner. Of course such few eerie moments as there are, are countered by ludicrous others like the "shooting gallery" scene where a victim repeatedly shotguns the heads of the zombies causing them to explode all over! This causes the rest of the zombies to run off into the woods and return with better weapons next time. One other extremely weird moment has a zombie being thrown over a wall, and for some reason this is filmed in slow-motion. Whatever the intention, the effect is absolutely hilarious.Oddly, the freeze-frame ending actually works in this film; it closes in a downbeat fashion with one victim being shoved into a circular saw blade, the other being artistically surrounded by zombie hands. There's an amusing poem that comes up on screen that talks about the "nigths of terror" and the "profecy of the black spider" - hilarious stuff. And that's the ending of what may be one of the most poorly-made zombie movies out there, but is also one of, if not the, most hilarious with it, although I'm not sure how it would stand up to repeat viewing! Cheesy stuff from pasta-land, to be sure, so don't go in expecting a proper "film", as this is as far as you can get from a mainstream movie.The cheap gut-munching effects are plentiful but hardly realistic, only seen in close up to disguise the fact that its sheep offal or whatever. Most of the blood and gore is poorly done and lacking in realism - Gino obviously didn't inherit his dad's ace makeup talents. Even the nastiest scene - in which a woman has her breast bitten off and eaten - is really schlocky and the film-makers don't even go to the trouble of hiding the model breast that's used. However, at least the movie has a purpose now as a low budget stomach-churner, a bad film come good and a howl for genre lovers. Behold the "nigths" of terror!

ang-lee these films are the things that make me be proud to be Italian ... movies to watch in brain off ... trashy , fun, bloody scenes in rivers , sex and drama enough ... Veteran horror director Andrea Bianchi is a little shaky, mind-boggling ZOOM and hastiness in turn but compensated by the excellent special effects master Giannetto De Rossi ...so the blood spilled in this film between decapitated heads , torn nipples bitten by a fantastic dwarf zombies and undead rotting between filthy worms ... if you like old horror movies artisan Italian is a must this cult , for everyone else there is always Shining to watch ... passed with flying colors ...

Woodyanders A bunch of zombies are unleashed from a crypt. The zombies attack an obnoxious group of decadent swinging socialites who are partying hearty at an adjacent villa. Replete with ham-fisted (mis)direction by Andrea Bianchi, a plodding pace, priceless putrid dialogue ("Mother, this cloth smells of death!"), cruddy dubbing, lousy acting, a nonsensical script (what's with the steel trap in the middle of the yard?), idiotic characters, plenty of explicit and excessive over-the-top gore, a satisfying smattering of sleazy sex, a no-holds-barred take-no-prisoners nightmarish'n'nihilistic sensibility, a wonky droning synthesizer score, unusually smart and resourceful zombies (these undead folks toss spikes with the exceptionally deft precision and dexterity of Olympic javelin throwers and at one point use a tree as a battering ram to break down a locked door!), and an uncompromisingly bleak ending, this deliciously dreadful doozy rates highly as an absolute rubbishy hoot and a half. Moreover, the alarming presence of singularly unnerving dwarf actor Peter Bark gives this picture an extra potent campy'n'creepy kick in the pants; Bark delivers a uniquely unsettling portrayal of Michael, a strange little boy whose uncomfortably incestuous relationship with his mother gets taken to its grimly logical (and disgusting) conclusion. In fact, Michael ultimately proves to be ten times more freaky and disturbing than the rot-faced ghouls! A terrifically tacky marvel.
