Impaled on a splinter. Lucas and Anna - Dr. Maynard s assistants. Lucas turns into a zombie and kills Anna. Anne and Peter hitch a ride with Brian and Susan and make their way to Matul, a remote island on which Dr. Maynard has isolated himself to research the zombies that have been popping up all over the island. Needless to say, the zombie population abruptly explodes and all hell breaks loose.
Throats are gnawed, eyes are gouged, heads explode.
One of the more amusing scenes in this film is an underwater fight between a zombie and a shark. There are also quite a few gratuitous bare breasts, though none worth writing home about. Unlike Romero, director Lucio Fulci doesn t include a shred of social commentary. Worms are attracted to pianos. Zombies have their own theme music.
