Blue Underground recently announced that they will be releasing a 2-disc Ultimate Edition Blu-ray of Lucio Fulci’s Zombie. There are many horror fans that may not be aware of the process involved in converting an older film to HD, so Blue Underground has released a short video, showing the process of taking the original Zombie film negative and restoring it in high definition for the Blu-ray release.
The Blu-ray edition of Zombie will be available on October 25th, and we've included the previously released disc information, cover art, and trailer.
“Blue Underground is proud to present ZOMBIE in a new 2K High Definition transfer from the original uncut and uncensored camera negative. Each flesh-eating frame has been lovingly restored to skull-rotting perfection under the supervision of Cinematographer Sergio Salvati (THE BEYOND). Now fully-loaded with hours of brand new Extras, this is the Ultimate Edition of ZOMBIE!"
