Zombi 3 (1988) (Italy)

aka Zombie Flesh Eaters 2

 ⭐️⭐️⭐️



Endlessly stupid Italian zombie flick is nowhere near as entertaining as it should be but still manages to be a decent time waster. When a military sanctioned toxin called Death One begins to spread through the Filipino countryside, shit hits the fan and people get their asses murdered. A trio of soldiers on leave, a van full of “sexy” young people and a vacationing couple group together in an attempt to survive the night. On top of the zombies there is a trigger-happy military cleanup crew shooting anything in their sights. Zombie birds, flying heads, and a zombie baby fill out the runtime. There’s a whole lot going on but it feels as if something is lacking. The film started out as a Fulci project but he had to bow out due to health reasons and that hack extraordinaire (and personal favorite) Bruno Mattei took the reins. Could be this shakeup of talent and anti-talent never allowed anything to meld correctly.
