Softwing Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

Matrixiole Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

Cunninghamolga This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.

Gary The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

Leofwine_draca If repeated eye close-ups, a soft-focus lens, and dream sequences moving in slow motion are your thing then this abysmal supernatural thriller from Lucio Fulci may be the film for you. Otherwise, skip it, as this is a Fulci far from the success of ZOMBIE FLESH EATERS or any of his other classic zombie gut-munchers. This is an old, muddled embittered Fulci, a man preoccupied with being over-the-top "arty" and supposedly stylish when instead all he can do is make the film look cheap and tacky, a director who had seriously lost his 'bite' when it came to horror films in 1990. At least he had some of the gore dripping for his next film, his swansong, NIGHTMARE CONCERT.VOICES FROM BEYOND is a film packed with cheap scares and bad dream sequences, with attempts at atmosphere by having sets enshrouded in cheap-looking dry ice whilst monotonous synthesiser music plays loudly over the images on screen and threatens to blow your mind. None of the old acting hands are around to give the film any kudos either or any of those "cool, look, it's him!" type moments. Here, the cast is a bland one, a gang who couldn't act their way out of a paper bag, and even the repeated bared breasts of blonde female lead Karina Huff fails to generate the excitement that Fulci was desperate for.The film's singular gory highlight comes at an autopsy, when a pathologist (played by a gleeful Fulci, up to his old tricks again) pulls out the guts from a corpse in graphic detail, snips them up and chucks them in a jar. Aside from the opening sequence which takes the term "death bed" literally with gallons of blood pumping from the mouth of a dying man (which promises a return to the old days which never occurs) this is a relatively bloodless and shoddy offering. The rest of the horror comes from repeated shots of a corpse decaying in its coffin, as while we watch flies appear and maggots crawl from the body's eye sockets - bizarre, seeing as the coffin is buried six feet below ground level. I guess it's those "burrowing flies" causing trouble again - or maybe it's just a film "of images".Sure, this movie does have a few cool moments - I liked the voice-over narration of the corpse, a good effect used in literature a lot but rarely in films, and Fulci harks back to the old days by throwing in a nightmare sequence involving an attack by a few mouldy-looking zombies. But what a let-down of a non-ending! Our female lead laughs in the graveyard and walks off, what the heck?! Then watch closely for a final message from the director in which Fulci pays tribute to his "real friends" - one is none other than Clive Barker! This film's a poor mess from a disillusioned mind.

callanvass A family man dies rather suddenly without proper explanation. It's covered up as a stomach hemorrhage. His daughter Rosy is called upon by the spirit of her dead Father to uncover the truth surrounding the mystery of his death. I love Lucio Fulci, despite his love and hate affair with people. I find him to be an innovator when it comes to Italian Horror. When he started to become ill, the quality of his films diminished, and this movie is proof of that. There are many random scenes that make no sense, and come across as needless. Example… We get a dream sequence with one of the suspected people being attacked by Zombies who are coming out of a crate. I've come to expect Lucio Fulci to be brash when it comes to violence, but there is also a very controversial dream sequence where the dead father stabs his son to death. It is later revealed in the ending as to why he does this, but it still raised my eyebrows a bit. I also thought the voice over from the dead Father was completely otiose. It came across as an annoying diversion, more than anything else. I know the actors were dubbed, but the dialog is inexplicably moronic. The ending is slightly clever, believe it or not. Too bad I was bored way too much to even care about it! This isn't gore filled like a lot of Fulci movies, but fret not. This does have some. We get bloody stabbings an eyeball omelet served on a platter, nasty blood puking, maggot infested corpse, intestines are extracted from a stomach, and more. The acting isn't really worth mentioning. Everyone is dubbed, and pretty terrible. I will say Rosy (The lead) resembles Linda Hamilton in some ways. Final Thoughts: As a big Lucio Fulci fan, I was very disappointed in this. I can't in good conscience, recommend this one to you, unless you're a die-hard Fulci fan that hasn't seen this movie. 3/10

CMRKeyboadist This is one of the last films Fulci directed and you can tell. As this is a decent film it is not a horror movie. It's more of a mystery with very little of what made Fulci a great horror/gore director. It really does stray from the norm for Fulci as this story is more on the story and characters than it is on gore.Basically, a very wealthy man dies an unnatural death (spewing up blood). His family are all a bunch of money grubbers except his daughter (who is the star of the movie). She has a dream one night that her father comes to her and tells her that he was murdered and that she needs to find the person that killed him before it's too late.Now, the story is kind of interesting but things just don't click together. You can tell with many of the scenes that Fulci was trying to incorporate his psychedelic horror style but the story wasn't right for that style. There were though many scenes that were good and very eye catching. The music in the movie was very hypnotic and enjoyable. The big problem with this movie is the gore. There is very little gore. The gore that is in the movie doesn't even go on par with his work in the late 70's and early 80's. Though, there was one funny scene at the beginning of the movie involving a crying child and his crazed father threatening to stab him with a knife.Over all, for Fulci fans I have to rate this a 3/10. For a regular movie, I have to rate this a 5/10. It's not bad but it's not good.

Buio_Omega ****WARNING!!!!! POSSIBLE SPOILERS***Voices From Beyond is the last Fulci' work. It's about rich businessman Giorgio Mainardi who dies suffering, spewing blood, and his whole family is watching as he suffers. When Giorgio dies, his spirit connects from beyond the grave with his beloved daughter Rosie to find out, who is responsible for his death.This film is a little bit of disappointment, but there are some interesting scenes giving thrills. Not much gore - Fulci's trademark, but includes a zombie attack, rotting head and some eyeballs pretending to be fried eggs. Recommended for Fulci completists and true die-hard fans. I give 5 out of 10.
