Io Zombo, Tu Zombi, Lei Zomba
Those were years of heroic zombies, in every angle of the world.
The gold mine of "cinema di genere" gave birth to a big numbers
of succesfully movies. So funny the italians, as ever what comes
to mind? A parody of the living dead.
So far, it all works. The idea is brilliant and the cast is fabulous:
Renzo Montagnani, Cochi Ponzoni, Gianfranco D'Angelo, Dulio Del
Prete, Anna Mazzamauro, and a young actors: Tullio Solenghi. Not
to mention an ass and its owner, Nadia Cassini.
But these names must have consumed the production budget, which is
forced for the rest to save heavily. And so here's a film that from
start to finish using disproportionately "the art of handcraft" in all
starting with the plot. A film already criticized by the same actors,
including the same Montagnani, which would have called it a "huge crap".
But this time, however, we are not entirely agree with the great Tuscan
actor, this movie is bad, we agree, but at the end, "Io Zombo ..." is
an original work especially for Italian cinema and there are some funny
gags, such as the impediments pre-murders and friendship that comes
with the victims.
Of course the story doesn't not have a great logical and is often very
distracting. But the worst problem is that it wastes a very good cast
of actors.
Nello Rossati tries to tell the story of an undertaker (Renzo
Montagnani) fan of horror books while he is reading a story in which
there is a magic formula brings to life three people involved in an
accident. For fear he dies too and the three bring him back to life.
They are hungry and they started to look for food, human flesh, in
every way, giving rise to a number of situations in which the victims
highlight the stupidity of the hunters.
Then came the bright idea, that is, to take refuge in a hotel and
especially to handle it, with the intent to eat their guests. Nadia
Cassini or to put it right her butt, is a guest of the hotel, but
instead of ending up in the pot, she delight everyone with a dance on
the table in the dining room. No, no one is eaten at the end and
because we are still in Italy, spaghetti for everyone.
Classic case of "so bad so good " this 1979 film is a true "scult" a
must for cinefile. A product made in Italy to be proud of (so to speak).
