Directed by Michele Soavi • Italy • 1994
Starring Rupert Everett, François Hadji-Lazaro, Anna Falchi

The ultimate erotic/romantic/existential zombie gorefest, this outrageous cult classic from Dario Argento disciple Michele Soavi stars Rupert Everett as Francesco Dellamorte, a cemetery watchman in a small Italian village tasked with dispatching the recently deceased when they rise from their graves. But when he falls in love with a beautiful young widow (Anna Falchi), will his resurrected lust for life become greater than his bond with death? Equal parts grotesque and strangely moving, CEMETERY MAN combines baroquely stylized genre thrills with a perverse and poignant rumination on love, death, and existence.
