Lucio Fulci
had been blacklisted after making films (e.g.,BEATRICE
CENCI, DON'T
TORTURE A DUCKLING) which were deemed improper by the Catholic
Church. In 1979, he was offered a shot at the sequel to DAWN
OF THE DEAD (called ZOMBI in Europe). That film changed his
life. The International boom of ZOMBIE
2 (ZOMBIE FLESH EATERS) started Fulci on a new road to success
which included a string of boxoffice hits that culminated with this
feature. In his personal life, Lucio Fulci had been suffering with diabetes.
On March 13 1996, he went to bed without taking his insulin. Some say
this was suicide; others, an accident. But sadly, Mr Fulci was dead
at age 68.
