    Dellamorte Dellamore (Italy, 1994 - Directed by Micele Soavi) aka Cemetery Man, Starring Rupert Everett, François Hadji-Lazaro, Anna Falchi. Horror, Black Comedy

    Francesco Dellamorte laments his name – Andre Dellamorte would be much better. He is the local caretaker at a small town cemetery in Italy, which entails an additional task beyond digging graves and keeping the grounds in order. Here, the dead return to life as flesh eating zombies and need to be put back where they belong, a second time. This black comedy is based loosely off of the popular italian horror detective comic, Dylan Dog, and involves romance, comedic relief from a bizarre sidekick, a very large gun, and a marvelous ossuary. Some of the best visuals, creative writing, and artistic delivery of the 1990s, and a must see for cemetery aficionados. The best black comedy since The Loved One.
