❉ Arrow Video revives a banned video nasty on Limited Edition 4K UHD!
An abandoned boat in New York Harbour unleashes a dead flesh-crazed Zombie cargo… A young American woman and a journalist investigate a tropical island where a deadly disease is making the dead walk… Soon, thoughts of getting to the bottom of the murderous curse will be forgotten, as Fulci’s walking corpses overwhelm the living and reports come in that the Big Apple is swarming with the living dead…
From the sleazy video nasty vaults comes a movie so stained with controversy and moral indignation that the very mention of its name sends shudders down the spines of the weak-stomached and censorious – Zombie Flesh Eaters. A gut-munching, shark-wrestling, eye-gouging orgy of mud-caked undead terror and Italian splatter from the dark imagination of horror genius Lucio Fulci (The House by the Cemetery, City of the Living Dead).
After over 45 years, Zombie Flesh Eaters still has the power to shock and offend the unwilling. Check out this classic ‘sadist video’ and revel in a wonderfully tasteless movie that once helped usher in a moral panic! The 4K restoration includes three audio commentaries, video essays, archival featurettes, a reversible sleeve, perfect bound collector’s booklet, double-sided fold-out poster and six double-sided collector’s postcards.
It’s also available in an Original Artwork edition as an Arrow Store Exclusive.
