The Ups: If gory inventive killings is what you like (faces melting, crucifixion and eyes being pierced out) then you will adore this. Great atmosphere, weird music and grotesque sequences that I seldom see in low budget horror of today. This is how one should make a brutal zombie movie without empathy for any of it's characters.
The Downs: I could wish that Lucio Fulci took as good time with the script as he did to get the violence and blood effects perfect since the characters are written so"

Lucio Fulcilta olin ennen The Beyondia nähnyt huikean Don't Torture a Ducklingin, jonka jälkeen The Beyond odotteli häpeällisen kauan omaa vuoroaan. Ja tässä elokuvassahan kohtaa kaikki kauhun parhaat elementit juuri oikeassa suhteessa niin, ettei synny mitään syntistä sekametelisoppaa: satanallista vääntöä, zombeja ja vavisuttava ilmapiiri. Väkivalta on kipeän näköistä ja aivan huikeaa, kun verta vuoroin vaahtoaa, roiskuu ja magmamaisesti syöksyy mistä sattuu."

"I'm so glad I stumbled upon The Beyond. From beginning to end, it really is everything I could ever want in a horror film of its kind. Lucio Fulci's direction is really great, capturing many scenes with such raw, intense emotion - including some the best, most goriest murder scenes ever! Though many scenes are a bit slow narratively, the entire movie is incredibly well-filmed. Not for the squeamish.
