"Frightfully funny." -Amy Dawes, Los Angeles Daily News
Rupert Everett (My Best Friend's Wedding) stars as Francesco Dellamorte, a cemetery watchman whose job it is to slaughter the living dead when they rise hungry from their graves. But following a tragic tryst with a lusty young widow (stunning Anna Falchi in one of three sexy roles), Francisco begins to ponder the mysteries of existence. Is there long-term satisfaction in blasting the skulls of 'returners'? Will his imbecile assistant find happiness with the partial girl-corpse of his dreams? And if death is the ultimate act of love, can a psychotic killing spree send Dellamorte to the brink of enlightenment?
Italian horror master Michele Soavi (Stage Fright) directed this brilliantly bloody black comedy - also known as Dellamorte Dellamore - that Gore Score calls "a deliciously demented, delightfully surreal stew of sex, death, splatter, male-bonding, barfing, zombies and nothing less than the Ultimate Meaning of Life!"

Soavi's horror bow-out finally released in the states! - 3.75 out of 5 (8/21/2006)
If you're a fan of horror, and you havent heard of either Michele Soavi or "Dellamorte, Dellamore" by now, you're deader than the denizens of Buffalora cemetery! The long-awaited Anchor Bay release is sure to please with new interviews with Soavi and Falchi, even though the box art is boring and the print not much better than the Region 2 Red Edition release years back. If you don't own it, buy it. If you already own it, buy this disc anyway, and marvel at how Anna Falchi gets better lookin

Blood, Sex, And Guns - 4 out of 5 (8/18/2006)
This film is... weird. Part "Evil Dead" and part "American Psycho" with a few Fellini touches, expect to sit there and wonder where the hell this one is going while enjoying the visual style and oddly paced humor. The cinematography is one big reason to watch this film. If you've seen Italian horror before, then you know what to expect -- lots of gore and bizarre sexual overtones.
Are the dead really coming back to life, or is DeLamorte going insane? The Reaper might be right: If you don't

Best unknown horror-comedy - 4 out of 5 (5/15/2006)
This movie is either a cult classic or completely unknown... it all depends on what circle you run in. In the same vein as Evil Dead, Bad Taste and Dead-Alive, Cemetery Man is a horror-comedy flick about the caretaker of a cemetery where people won't stay dead. Starring Rupert Everett before he went Hollywood, and the incredibly gorgeous Anna Falchi, I see this as one of the most under-rated horror flicks. It's a very Italian kind of horror/zombie flick, and even h
