Spot on Almar! I often feel CotLD is more often than not totally overshadowed in a lot of fans minds by The Beyond - when I personally think its easly the equal of that film...

I hope the Arrow DVD has some cool extras. I have the BU R1 DVD already and will only buy this if its feature loaded...I get sick of buying stuff twice (as I've done with some of the Shameless releases) and not getting anything new for my money.

If you're talking goofs there's a shot in Pieces where the killer stabs a woman in the back of the neck and if you watch carefully you can see the rubber blade bend on her skin.

I know all of Fulci's four flesh-ripping forays are great gorefests but imo City is the most revolting and stomach-churning to watch.
The film is simply an atmospheric barrage of brain squishings, maggot showers, worm infested corpses, cranial drilllings and close-up innard vomiting. Eeeeuugghh!

Even beyond the gore I find that City of the Living Dead has the best pace, most interesting characters and coherent story. I like The Beyond but it's a but convoluted and I find Zombi 2 drags a bit too much. To me City was his perfect zombie film.

As someone who hasn't seen COTD (shame on me I know), these posts just make me look forward to the Arrow release even more!

It's definitely worth seeing. This was my review of it - http://midnight-theatre.com/?p=1336

The release I have of it from Anchor Bay is a bare bones one but if one is brought out with featurettes then I'd definitely get it
