"Dreadfully-acted, typically unintelligent Italian gore flick."

After Father William Thomas (Fabrizio Jovine) hangs himself in a cemetery, the gates of hell are opened. Zombies with abilities of super strength, teleportation and levitation appear and start killing off people in town. Investigating reporter Peter Bell (Christopher George) along with psychic Mary Woodhouse (Catriona MacColl) travel to Dunwich, New England, and from the Book of Eibon learn that they must close the portal to hell before All Saints Day, or the dead will overtake the earth.

'City of the Living Dead', also known as 'Paura nella città dei morti viventi' in Italian, another early eighties Lucio Fulci gore flick, exists only to shock and repel with it's spaghetti-and-meatballs-like gore and, what I found to be the scariest thing in the film, the atrocious acting. Long reviews for films like these aren't necessary, as that would be putting more thought into this worthless trash than the creators did.
