Anybody who's into
zombies will surely tell you that if you're going to collect zombie
films, one you definitely need is Lucio Fulci's "Zombie". It's
a classic horror flick with zombies in the Caribbean, and no they're
not on vacation. Eating people is a 24/7 job and zombies are the only
ones who have the guts to do it. HAR HAR HAR!

Now if there's one
reason that every fan of this movie uses to try to convince other
horror fans to check it out, it's gotta be the infamous eye trauma
scene. And it's with good reason, it's completely unflinching and
makes most of the "gore" in horror movies these days seem like finger
paints. It just looks so insanely painful, yet you can't help but
watch it all the way through until the very end. Behold!

Brutal isn't it? Yep,
that's Fulci for ya... way ahead of his time when it came to the
glorious gore. Show me an optician that can fix her problems and I'll
be impressed.
As intense as that scene
was, I have to contest it. I think there's a far greater moment in
this movie that nobody ever seems to mention for some reason when
speaking about Zombie. Why this is the case, I do not know,
because it practically has all of the elements that a horror fan could
ask from any flick.

So this lady goes scuba
diving (topless, of course) while her friends hangout in the boat
above. Problem is, there's a shark in the water that seems to be
interested having her for a snack. So she goes to hide behind a coral
reef and what should appear?

An underwater zombie!
I believe this marked the first time that I ever saw a zombie attack a
scuba diving woman... let alone a topless one. So she flails around
for a bit, trying to get away from him without any success. Then she
grabs a piece of coral and scratches up his face with it and makes a
quick escape back up to the boat while he's distracted on the ocean
floor.
And that's when it
happens. Something that you could dream about for years and never see
it become a reality. Something that sounds too awesome to be true.
Well my friends, it IS true. It DOES happen. What
greatness do I speak of? Well tell me...
Are you ready for it?
Can you handle the
excellence?
Do you believe a zombie
movie can make your life more complete?
If you answered "YES!"
to all three of these things then you may proceed.
I am proud to present
you with one of the most
incredible battles ever to take place on planet Earth:
!!!!!!!!!!ZOMBIE vs. SHARK!!!!!!!!!!

Perfection. Absolute
perfection. I'm not even going to explain to you why I consider
this to be one of the greatest horror movie moments of all time. If
you can't figure it out simply by looking at that footage, then you're
on the wrong web site and I hope a shark and a zombie team up to come
devour you in your sleep.
