umbeto lenzis best film
as i state in the above title, this is in my opinion umberto lenzis best movie. its an awesome zombie film, even though the creatures doing the killing arent really zombies. theyre actually humans who are infected by radiation. the film follows a couple trying to find a safe place in the midst of the zombie take over. the film is a blast of action and energy, not usually found in an italian horror movie. the zombies run, jump, shoot and slash their way through hundreds of victims. the only thing similiar to normal zombie film is that they can only be killed by shooting them in the head. the zombies themslfs look kinda cheesy. they appear to have lausagna covering their faces. gore hounds will be pleased to know that nightmare city does have some good gore scenes. an unlucky dancer has her head split open with an axe, blood squirts out in grusome slow motion. another women has her eye gouged out and is then stabbed repeatedly with a fire poker. the exploding zombie heads are also done quite well. the only thing that i didnt like about nightmare city was that some of the special effects are really cheap. people will get stabbed or have their neck cut and youl be able to tell that the knife had blood on it already and that the blood was just smeared across the actors neck. also people or zombies will be shot and no bullet holes will appear. a couple unsuccesfull special effects dont stop nightmare city from being an awesome italian zombie film. a worthy addition to any euro horror dvd collection.

Zobies and gore, what more could you want in B horror.
Sure, this is a Italian movie dubbed over to english, but it does work for me. It's a story about a reporter who ends up "landing" the story of a lifetime, but he can not get the word out until it's too late, and the Zombies are taking over the city. What happens next, watch this flick. <
>Sure, the acting is lackluster, and the script is so so, but the gore special effects and the overall approach of the film is just different enough to make this a decent film to add to a zombie collectors shelf.

Solid Zombie flick by Umberto Lenzi
Most zombie flicks of the 80s seemed to follow the format of George A. Romero's Night of the Living Dead or Dawn of the Dead. While others would follow Lucio Fucli's Zombie. Sometimes it was a mix of Dawn of the Dead and Zombie. <
> <
>Nightmare City on the other hand breaks away from that and I have to say it was nice to see something a bit different. When it comes to running zombies people mention either 28 Days Later or the Dawn of the Dead remake. <
> <
>But Return of the Living Dead actually did that before them, but Nightmare City did it before that. <
> <
>While I have seen a lot of zombie flicks, this one sticks out from the bunch. Besides running zombies they also use guns, knives and there were some scenes with an axe. The zombies even drive cars and fly planes. <
> <
>Now I know what people are thinking. Nightmare City is a silly flick that is full of gore. <
> <
>Well in some ways that is true. But I found Nightmare City very well made for the most part. The gore is there, but it's not the splatter flick I thought it would be. <
> <
>For those you have seen a lot of gore flicks Nightmare City won't seem to gory, but don't get me wrong there are plenty of gore scenes. It's just not as gory like Burial Ground or some of Fulci's zombie flicks. <
> <
>For those you don't watch a lot of gore flicks this will be very gory for them. <
> <
>If you are a fan of Italian horror and zombie flicks Nightmare City is worth checking out. We get a lot of action some decent gore and an overall really fun movie. <
> <
>This is back when Anchor Bay was the best for horror films, but in recent years Media-Blasters have now passed them. <
> <
>Overall I found Umberto Lenzi's Nightmare City to be a great watch. It stands out from a lot of other zombie flicks from this time. <
> <
>This isn't your typical zombie movie at all so don't go in expecting a Dawn of the Dead clone because it's quite different. <
> <
>I have to give credit to Umberto Lenzi, the thought of zoimbies that use weapons and drive is rather silly, but he pulls it off and it works. <
> <
>If you have seen George A. Romero's The Crazies then you will know what to expect from Nightmare City. The biggest difference though is unlike The Crazies this is a zombie flick. <
> <
>Fans of cult cinema should enjoy!
