I'm beginning to come around when it comes to Fulci's work. I think he had a great eye for making things LOOK eerie or scary, but I'm not convinced that he had the ability to tell a great story. There isn't a lot of substance to his films, but some of them are visceral and stunning in their own way. That has to account for something if you ask me. I'm not familiar with all of Fulci's work, but from what I've watched I prefer Zombie.
I would prefer being punched in the face by Kimbo Slice to watching Zombie 3 again, but from what I understand Lucio Fulci can't be held 100% responsible for Zombie 3's shittiness...
