Some know it in its original Italian form as Zombi Holocaust (or Zombie Holocaust), while others adore the re-edited Us release known as Doctor Butcher M.D., but with their upcoming two-disc Blu-ray of Marino Girolami’s 1980 horror film, Severin Films aims to please all sides with uncut releases of both versions of the movie.
Featuring over two and a half hours of special features, Severin Films’ Zombie Holocaust / Doctor Butcher M.D. Blu-ray hits shelves on July 26th:

Chicago – The great cult movie studio Blue Underground continues their pattern of excellent Blu-ray releases for unheralded horror gems with the recent releases of the Lucio Fulci zombie film “City of the Living Dead” and one of the most underrated westerns ever made in “Django”. While they don’t have much in common outside of studio and cult status, both are worth a look.
Blu-Ray Rating: 3.0/5.0
“City of the Living Dead”
Even though I admire some of his technique and willingness to do whatever inspired him, I was never a huge Lucio Fulci fan.
