“No one could tell his story better than himself, so he did.”
FULCI TALKS uncut conversation with Lucio Fulci by Antonietta De Lillo is a ride through the cinema of the “Gorefather” Lucio Fulci, nicknamed also ” The Genre Terrorist”, a director that went from the comedies to the thrillers, from the spaghetti westerns to the horror movies. It is a “journey” through the Italian and the International movies he made, he knew, loved and, occasionally, he criticized too with a well-honed sense of humor and a smart mouth.
Antonietta De Lillo, after 30 years from an in-depth interview she did with Fulci, done with the film critic Marcello Garofalo, brings to light this rare and precious shooting and creates the unexpected portrait of a great and refined “craftsman of cinema”, at a time just as the critics finally recognize the status of cult movies for his films, which have become landmarks for an entire generation of directors and cinema goers.
