It's been called "stylish and gruesome" (Washington Post), "grotesque and touching" (AV Club) and "an experience unlike any other" (Bloody Disgusting). Now this magnum opus by director Michele Soavi - "the best Italian horror film of the '90s" (Fangoria). Rupert Everett stars as cemetery watchman Francesco Dellamorte, tasked with dispatching the recently deceased when they rise from their graves. But when he falls in love with a beautiful young widow (Anna Falchi), will his resurrected lust for life become greater than his bond with death? François Hadji-Lazaro (THE CITY OF LOST CHILDREN) co-stars in the finest erotic romantic existential black comedy zombie gorefest of our time, with a Soavi-approved hd scan from the Cinecittà negative and over 3 hours of Special Features - including new interviews with Soavi and Everett.

Press Quotes
One of the best Italian horror films ever made... A brilliantly bloody and sexy black comedy/zombie film that truly earns its cult status.
—Morbidly Beautiful
Soavi's absolute masterpiece... What makes CEMETERY MAN so extraordinary is the way it manages to balance over-the-top zombie comedy and a dreamy arthouse mood.
—Bloody Disgusting
One of the greatest and most unique horror films ever created.
—Confluence of Cult
A genuine original... It's compelling, bizarre and distinctly Italian, the bastard progeny of Romero's NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD and any number of Fellini films.
—Austin Chronicle
One of the best horror movies you've never seen... Strange, shocking and moving, with one of the most oddly resonant endings in Italian horror history.
—Fangoria
Hip, offbeat horror... Michele Soavi comes into his own with this personal pic, balancing gore, sex, laughs and youthful despair.
—Variety
A rumination on sex and death... The tone is sly and comic with a despairing edge, plus a couple of sex scenes that can make steam come out of your ears.
—San Francisco Chronicle
Stylish and gruesome... An apprentice to Dario Argento, Michele Soavi shares his mentor's talent for sensuous extravagance.
—Washington Post
Grotesque and touching... Few films have tried so enthusiastically to fuse horror and humor, while still saying something about life.
—AV Club
