Zombie Flesh Eaters (1979) aka Zombi 2, directed by Lucio Fulci, uncut Blue Underground 4k remaster, encoded in 10 bit HEVC with AAC sound, including original English 7.1 remaster, original English theatrical mono, Italian 7.1 remaster, original Italian theatrical mono, four commentary tracks, and subtitles in 14 languages.
IMDb : https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0080057/
Video encoded in two-pass 13.0 Mbps x265 10bit with the veryslow preset for archive quality image. Audio encoded separately with Apple AAC for the highest-quality AAC sound available. I've retained my previous OCRed and corrected subtitles, all other image subtitles converted to VobSub and repositioned.
Note : Here's a do-over of one of my very first uploads, which was also Lucio Fulci's first zombie movie, harbinger of a later career rife with the living dead. It's probably the definitive Italian zombie film, setting up the typical tropes of exotic locales, really gnarly-looking half-rotted zombies, a group of people including at least one woman who likes to get naked unwittingly stumbling into what's essentially hell. While this isn't the first Lucio Fulci film to involve some grievous eye injury (that honor goes to 1969's Beatrice Cenci, which I haven't seen), the scene in this is probably the most famous one, and again sets off a flurry of ophtalmologists' nightmares in his early 80s output. Tisa Farrow and Ian McCulloch in particular are very good, we get a cameo from Fulci himself, and in general this is one of the several high points of Fulci's oeuvre. Also, zombie vs. shark!
When a seemingly uncrewed sailboat drifts into New York harbor, it's boarded by two harbor patrolmen, one of whom is attacked and killed by a zombie that was lurking on board, before the other man shoots it and it falls overboard. Even famously dull-witted NYC cops think this is a little weird, so they figure they'll interrogate the Anne Bowles, daughter of the boat's registered owner, who knows nothing other than that her father is supposed to be in the Caribbean. She crosses paths with British journalist Peter West, and together they set off to the island of Matul to investigate, hiring a boat and two guides. What they find there, however, is British doctor Menard, who's been investigating zombie reanimation, and whose nervous wife is promptly attacked by a zombie, before things really get out of hand.
This is a very nice looking 4k remaster, although the grain is occasionally a bit harsh, and there's some flicker here and there. Color and contrast are very good, and sharpness is decent. Note that there are some strange color artifacts in the underwater shots, these are from source, and are fortunately not too distracting. The 7.1 remasters sound pretty great, mono tracks are good as well, and all four commentary tracks are well worth your time.

HeVK torrents always have lots of keywords. Try searching for “ hevk zombie” for more dead rising from their graves, “ hevk italian” for more from the country that effortlessly turned from thrillers in the 70s to zombies, slashers and cannibals in the 80s, or “ hevk voodoo” for more black people stereotypically performing strange rituals.
