Steak Tar Tar?

Written, directed by, and starring Italian legend Lucio Fulci, this movie put him in the seat as the director he is; and the murderous actions he films become a reality and start surrounding him. A very good idea for Fulci to make a movie like this; allowing his classic job of director to be combined with not only his direction, but his point of view as a director with enough violence to work as a conspiracy of a movie. Trusting only his therapist and telling him details of the imagery he sees while on film sets and how his work seems to be coming home with him. Blood is being shed in both his career world on the set, and in real life after he yells cut. After being offered some steak dish he always eats by a waiter that recognizes him, Fulci imagines horrific scenes of cannibilism in his latest film. The sounds of chainsaws fill the air like a plane taking off at an airport, and the blood flows like rain in England. Ironically this film in my mind is one of his best, and definetly his most underrated film. Getting released onto DVD in late 2008, as oppose to a bunch worse films who saw the production before this movie did not sit well with me; but at least it was finally in my DVD collection officaily, and may I add one I always seem to go for when deciding what to put on. Nab it while you can, put out by Grindhouse Releasing.
