In the small New England town of Dunwich, a priest commits suicide by hanging himself in the church cemetery which somehow opens the gates of hell allowing the dead to rise. Peter, a New York City reporter, teams up with a young psychic, named Mary, to travel to the town where they team up with another couple, psychiatrist Jerry and patient Sandra, to find a way to close the gates before All Saints Day or the dead all over the world will rise up and kill the living.
Another masterpiece directed by one of the best horror directors Lucio Fulci. This film concerns a priest committing suicide and opening the gateway to Hell, allowing the dead to rise from their graves and feed on the living.
Christopher George (Pieces) tries to stop them. The gore effects made by Gino de Rossi are excellent (maggots, rotting flesh, lots of squished brains, etc.) Giovanni Lombardo Radice gets an electric drill through his head,and there’s also a notorious scene of woman (Daniela Doria) vomiting up all of her internal organs in a really nauseating torrent of blood and guts.
The plot is weak,but the film is highly atmospheric and imaginative. Again brilliant director Lucio Fulci created a masterpiece of pure horror! 10 out of 10, not to be missed !
