A staple of the modern horror movie is the shower scene. They are as common as masked villains, dumb horny teenagers, and bad plots. Of course, some showers are better then others. High on my list are those featured in Slumber Party Massacre and Sorority Babes In The Slimeball O-Rama. Occasionally I'm disappointed, as I was with Wild Thing's scrub down, but more often then not they fulfill my expectations. However, Lucio Fulci's Zombie 2 has the best soapy scene since Psycho - the original that is, not the Anne Heche's butt version. If it were only for that I would recommend this film. However, there is much more to keep you from hitting fastforward, including a fight between a shark and a zombie that strangely reminded me of Tyson vs. Holyfield.
This movie definitely does try to capture on Romero's Living Dead trilogy. However it is a good movie. Furthermore, the zombies here are far better looking then those in Romero's best effort Dawn of The Dead. The special effects are very effective - meaning really, really gory. I just wonder why these zombie movies have to be so nihilistic? I mean in almost all of them mankind seems doomed. If you happen across the Anchor Bay widescreen version stay tuned for radio adds and trailers for the film, including the free "barf bag" offer. Skeeter gives it 10 for 10!
