Zombie versus.... SHARK!!

 The holidays bring many great things--presents, home cooking, and time spent with family and friends. Speaking personally, this holiday season brought me new revelation about Zombies. They can fight sharks.

Just when you thought they couldn't get any cooler, you find out something new about Zombies and your world is never the same. The youtube video above is a clip from the Italian film Zombi 2, which was released in Italy in 1979 and then in the U.S. in 1980. Directed by Lucio Fulci, Zombi 2 became an instant Zombie classic with its over the top gore and infamous Zombie vs. Shark scene.

The scene features an actual tiger shark battling a Zombie underwater with some trippy ambient music in the background. It is a pretty impressive sequence as I would imagine it was hard to choreograph an underwater fight scene with a real man-eating shark. That being said, I feel we all owe it to ourselves to find this gem in our local video store and start 2011 off right. Happy New Year to you all!
