The World Does Not Need a Reboot of Lucio Fulci’s Creepy Masterpiece ‘The Beyond’
Maybe more than any other cult genre, Italian horror from the ’70s and ’80s is stuffed with a style so specific it feels impossible to recreate. Luca Guadagnino took a crack at Suspiria in 2018 that wasn’t completely terrible, though it didn’t come close to Argento’s 1977 masterpiece. And now we have word that The Beyond, Fulci’s 1981 chiller also known as 7 Doors of Death, may be getting a remake soon.

Opening excerpt (first ~120 words) tap to expand

The music, the cinematography, the stories that feel ripped directly out of nightmares rather than reality, the exquisite gore, and even the questionable dubbing are all part of the magic in films by Lucio Fulci, Dario Argento, Lamberto Bava, Umberto Lenzi, and others from that…
