Hah, I used to love going to houses like that on Halloween, even if they did scare the crap out of me. I was an impressionable kid, if I had seen anything like "The Gates of Hell" at that age, I would've been scarred for life.

My first run-in with Fulci was when his movie "Zombie" was featured on Bravo's 100 Scariest Movie Moments, highlighting the eye-splinter scene. I watched "The Gates of Hell" with my friend, and it's an insane movie (but the ending still doesn't make any sense.) Who else would come up with an idea like having a girl barf her insides out? I also like "The Beyond," and I'm currently searching "A Lizard in a Woman's Skin."
