    Zombi (1979)......4/6

    Recommended.

    Check out Dawn Of The Dead, 1978. I think it's the best zombie film ever made. Epic in its scope, gruesome in its explicit content, and intelligent in its messages, Romero's classic stands out as a true highlight in the genre.

    As soon as you've finished this one, check out Night Of The Living Dead, 1968 (also by George Romero).

    Great suggestions. Personally I love Day of the Dead and the Night of the Living Dead remake too.

    However, I would probably consider Lucio Fulci's Zombi as my favourite. Its emphasis on voodoo, its wacky Fabio Frizzi score, and Richard Johnson, I love it :p

    THE LONG GOOD FRIDAY (1980)
    A couple of days early for what is becoming an annual watch of John Mackenzies gritty gangland thriller. Bob Hoskins gives a barnstorming performance as Harold Shand ( that final scene is a knockout!), the gangster who wants to conquer the property market , with a deal involving the American mafia, finds his whole empire crumble around him in one fateful Easter weekend! Every time I watch this, I always have Francis Monkmans catchy theme in my head for days after! Splendid movie!

    Good call @Mathis1

    I'm hoping i too get around to watching it again this weekend. One of my favourite British films.

    That scene on the boat when Harold confronts Jeff is utterly gripping!

    Agreed, and the violence that erupts was quite a shock, the first time I saw it! Casualty wasn't going to help Jeff there!! 😁

    Definitely not :))

    That scene was heavily cut when i first saw it on TV. It was only years later that i saw the full jugular glassing :D

    It's one of those rare movies you really wish were a lot longer
