'Hell of The Living Dead' (1980) – Bruno Mattei.

Spaghetti schlock impresario Bruno Mattei is a gloriously plagiarising, lowbrow splatter auteur that inspires acid derision and vociferous praise in equal measure, and while his gallopingly gory, gut-munching 80s trash-horror masterpiece 'Hell of the Living Dead' aka 'Zombie Creeping Flesh' is a no less divisive grot-faced chunk-blower about an escalating globally catastrophic explosion at a hush-hush, off-grid black op government facility which insidiously releases a diabolically noxious chemical miasma that toxicologically transforms all those who came in close contact with it into sickly shambling, bug-eyed, blue-grey, flesh-eating zombies, with this apocalyptic contagion very soon threatening to engulf the entire earth! A somewhat ramshackle, inept-looking SWAT team is hurriedly dispatched to grisly ground zero, where 'Sweet Death' was covertly originated, but does this rumbustious boiler suit-clad crew of mercenary military misfits, perhaps, have another less altruistic agenda?

While demonstratively lacking the innate macabre artistry of Lucio Fulci's immortal island-set, eye-ball shattering insanity 'Zombie Flesh Eaters', the outrageously opportunistic, generously gore-soaked, Goblin music-cloaked cannibal carnage is a hysterically entertaining splatter-movie classic, and its cavalier usage of sinister stock footage, profound lack of subtlety, and lurid expose of juicily-jugged, jungle-set shenanigans make it nigh on irresistible! Now being recklessly re-discovered on 88 Films pristine-looking, haemoglobin-heavy, high definition Blu-ray, B-Movie disastermind Bruno Mattei's 'Hell of The Living Dead' can now deliriously infect the rapidly palpitating hearts and terminally tainted minds of a whole new degeneration of rabid gore hounds!
