The death of a priest causes a chain reaction that begins The End of Days. The only hope lies in a jaded reporter (Christopher George) and the psychic (Catriona MacColl) he saved from being buried alive. The two set off for Dunwich, New England to shut the gates of hell before it’s too late and the undead rule the Earth. This horror classic features Special FX work by Gino De Rossi of Zombie and Cannibal Ferox infamy, a score by Fabio Frizzi, and a screenplay co-written by Dardano Sacchetti (Rat Man, Demons).
Directed by Giallo horror legend Lucio Fulci, City of the Living Dead – which was released in the United States as The Gates of Hell – starred Christopher George, Catriona MacColl, Carlo De Mejo, Antonella Interlenghi, Giovanni Lombardo Radice, Daniela Doria, Fabrizio Jovine, Luca Venantini, Michele Soavi, Venantino Venantini, Enzo D’Ausilio, Adelaide Aste, Luciano Rossi, Robert Sampson and Janet Agren.
