The Beyond [DVD] [1981]

The best Lucio Fulci movie….it’s a knockout….loved every minute of it.

Grindhouse Releasing has done it again and put the Film and the extras on 2 Blu-Ray discs ( most companies will put the extras on a DVD disc with the Feature Film on the Blu-Ray). The third disc is a CD of the film's score. That being said, the transfer to Blu-Ray is AWESOME. The picture is STUNNINGLY great! The sound quality is equally as good. Seeing some the features, while they didn't need Blu-Ray treatment, are also well done. And having the Movie score/soundtrack, while not necessarily a feature I usually go for with most collections, was very cool to have. I wound up driving to work listening to it. This is the edition to buy for one of the scariest films of the Italian Euro Gore cycle. A classic. I'm glad Best Buy is stocking boutique labels like this and home they expand it to companies like Olive, Code Red, Severin, Arrow, Vinegar Syndrome, etc.

This movie is awesome. Its very entertaining and the story is superb.

Grindhouse has given this film the release it deserves. Great special features, complete soundtrack on a bonus CD, and a beautiful presentation of the film. What more can you ask for? Highly recommend this one!

Lucio Fulci's The Beyond is one his more bizarre films, where logic goes almost completely out of the window and man eating tarantulas and zombies coexist for some reason. If you have a stomach for gore and don't mind sometimes incoherent plots (to put it another way, you like Italian horror movies from the late 70s-early 80s), Grindhouse put together a very nice package of the film, extras, and the soundtrack at a rather reasonable price.

This is one of my favorite Fulci films, along with City of the Living Dead and Zombi. It’s got the same disgusting gore and slightly confusing storyline. It’s also dubbed in English. There’s a particularly cringeworthy scene involving tarantulas.

This is one surprisingly great zombie film. A must watch

One of the greatest horror films of the last century. Truly terrifying.
