Tim Brayton Antagony & Ecstasy More than any of its myriad names, the truest is one that has never, as far as I know, been given to it in any release in any country: That F---awful Bruno Mattei Zombie Flick.

Jonathan O Hell of the Living Dead is absolutely outrageously bad good Italian zombie horror film and is quite actually the guilty pleasure for zombie fans and the filmmaker borrowed the goblin score from dawn of the dead and stole the scenes from the documentary reels of cannibalism but is really disgusting and shocking violent horror film that is actually a horror comedy. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 12/10/24 Full Review xpig332 B So bad in every respect that it kept me entertained, somewhat. Definitely a one time view. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/22/24 Full Review Max Z Honesty could not get through this one. I blame Dario Argentine for all the bad Italian zombie movies (his recut of Dawn of the Dead for the Euro market) but this one is particularly awful. Too much bad exposition and preamble, random characters, "elite soldiers" who don't even know how to hold their guns, bad acting, bad script mostly ad libbed, and stock footage thrown in to make Spain look like papa New Guinea. Hard to believe they copied Romero and literally got it all wrong. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/08/23 Full Review delysid d yet another italian zombie-cannibal film that seems to have been made on some kind of assembly line, all the films are practically the same, still they are classics to me Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/17/18 Full Review Audience Member Why would anyone like this movie? It's wonderful late night cheese. It does feature the worst commando unit, ever! These guys can't kill shit! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Bad in every sense of the word. It recycles Goblin score from Dawn of the Dead, the zombies are half oatmeal face and half ripped off from Tom Savini's DOTD look, the writing is awful, there's documentary footage spliced in because there's obviously no money, and you just don't care what happens.
