ZOMBIE 40th Anniversary Limited Edition, New 4K Restoration

Just in time for its 40th Anniversary, Blue UNDERGROUND is proud to present ZOMBIE in a brand-new 4K Restoration from the original uncut and UNCENSORED camera negative.

"We're thrilled to be working with Blue Underground," said Eric D. Wilkinson, Director of Home Video Sales and Acquisitions at MVD. "Bill Lustig is not only a legendary director of some of the greatest genre films of all time, but also a master curator and preservationist of cult movies. The combination of this amazing content with the MVD sales team is a perfect match and we are looking forward to bringing these films to our retail partners and collectors alike (and now I can finally get my copy of Maniac autographed)."

In Italy, it was considered the 'unofficial sequel' to DAWN OF THE DEAD. In England, it was known as ZOMBIE FLESH EATERS and banned as obscene. In America, it was called ZOMBIE and advertised with the depraved tag line "WE ARE GOING TO EAT YOU!"

Tisa Farrow (THE GRIM REAPER), Ian McCulloch (CONTAMINATION), Al Cliver (CANNIBALS), and Richard Johnson (THE HAUNTING) star in this worldwide splatter sensation directed by 'Maestro Of Gore' Lucio Fulci (CITY OF THE LIVING DEAD, THE HOUSE BY THE CEMETERY) that remains one of the most eye-skewering, skin-ripping, gore-gushingly graphic horror hits of all time.

"Blue Underground's move to MVD was driven by a need for a full service distributor," said William Lustig, President of Blue Underground, Inc. "MVD's knowledgeable and experienced sales team is enthusiastic regarding the cult classic Collector's Editions my company produces. Most importantly, I can actually reach key staffers on the phone!"

"It is an honor to be working with Bill and Greg, and the caliber of films they bring to the world," said Ed Seaman, COO of MVD. "We further cement our commitment to physical goods distribution by now representing Blue Underground's top quality, beautifully packaged repertoire."

This is a ZOMBIE release like never seen it before, bursting at the seams with hours of new and archival extras. It includes the Original Motion Picture Soundtrack CD by Fabio Frizzi (with an exclusive bonus track), a collectible booklet with a new essay by Stephen Thrower, and a ton of other killer bonus features.
