Happy Birthday, Lucio Fulci!
Happy Birthday to the human eye’s most virulent enemy, Lucio Fulci! Fulci was the undisputed monarch of movie mutilation; the sultan of Sin-ematic splatter! Affectionately known as the “Godfather of Gore” (a tit-le he shares with Herschell Gordon Lewis), Fulci painted the screen with enough phoney blood to make Sam Peckinpah blush! He pitted a zombie against a shark, had spiders tear a man’s face apart, and depicted a woman literally puking up her guts! His films were sick, gross, tasteless, and we absolutely love them! Thanks for giving us use for our gag bags, Fulci!
