Movie Review - Cemetery Man
Dellamorte Dellamore (1994)
directed by Michele Soavi
rating: 3 out of 5 cravats
on DVD from the vaults
If you're bothered by the lack of nudity in the Evil Dead franchise and like the idea of Ash as the melancholy British watchman of an Italian cemetery, have I got just the zombie-infested love story for you. The lengths Rupert goes to for the memory of his dearly departed (well, the Fellini model he slept with and then shot) make loss as tangible and delicate as the thin little wires that guide the graveyard's drifting blue spirits. And I think even Bergman might like our knight's retort to Death: "You and I are both the same. We kill out of indifference, out of love sometimes, but never out of hate."
Pick of this new week.
