The poster is enormous but it is GORGEOUS.

Stefano, a young journalist, buys a used typewriter and accidentally sees that some text is still readable on the ribbon. He manages to reconstruct the story of a scientist, Paolo Zeder, who in the 1950's discovered that some types of terrain have the power to revive the dead that are buried in them. Stefano's investigations bring him in contact with a group of renegade scientists that are still making experiments to prove Zeder's theories.

Great poster, but terribly misleading. The movie is an utter bore. Gabriele Lavia (from Argento's Deep Red and Inferno, among others) is good in the lead, but there's little else worth mentioning about this one.

Yeah, I've heard some awful things about this thing, unfortunately. The poster is the cover of some book about zombie movies that I bought years ago. That's where I found out about it and they didn't have anything good to say about it either.

I liked the premise: A writer receives an antique typewriter as a gift and, reading from the ribbon, uncovers a mystery involving locations capable of returning the dead to life. And you can see while watching that they put every penny of the budget on the screen; it certainly looks better than most low-budget Italian genre flicks of its time. But director Pupi Avati takes the intriguing premise and proceeds to go absolutely nowhere with it.

That's disappointing that this film is apparently so awful.
