Quality 80s horror but don't expect any hitchcockian plagiarism-here the zombies are the main threat though the birds do come into it at pivotal points. Definitely a nod towards Fulci's gates of hell trilogy (despite being released in Italy as Zombi 5 stupidly) but the zombies are different enough to make this movie stand up on it's own merits. A must-see for 80s Italian horror fans.

Never heard of that one before. Thanks man.

I hope you enjoy it as much as I did I haven't been able to get it out of my head since I watched it, it even makes a lot more sense than a lot of Italian horror although it's still pretty warped but in a fun and macabre way.

Liked them all except the 4th installment.

Get The Gringo (2011)



Quote:
The Gringo (Mel Gibson) is convicted and sent to a Mexican prison for stealing money from a crime boss. As he learns his way through the town-like prison, he meets a 10 year old boy who is special because he has a rare blood type and a Mexican crime boss in the same prison needs his liver. It is up to the titular gringo to save the boy's life and break out of prison.
Though Gibson did good but it'd be better if the lead role would played an actor with more flair and charisma. Liked the unique setting of the prison...somewhat like one mess of a locality filled with criminals. Overall, it was a fine prison-action flick.

>>: B+

Julia's Eyes - 8/10

Superb atmosphere, sets, sound, acting, story etc,etc. Highly recommended.

Puts one in mind of Dario Argento's best work. NOT TO BE MISSED!!!
