Rare Original Greek Insert – Zombie (1979) by Lucio Fulci

Horror collectors and Lucio Fulci fans, feast your eyes on this rare original Greek insert poster for Zombie (1979), also known as Zombi 2! Measuring 46 x 29 cm (18 x 12 inches), this striking piece of horror memorabilia was released during the film’s Greek theatrical run.

What makes this insert particularly fascinating is that, despite being marketed for Fulci’s classic zombie gorefest, some of the images featured on the poster are actually from a completely different movie! However, one chilling image from Zombie remains, tying it to its rightful place in Italian horror history.

The bold Greek title “Τα Ζόμπι Χτυπάνε Μεσάνυχτα” translates to “Zombies Strike at Midnight”, adding an extra layer of exploitation-style marketing to this sought-after collector’s piece. The insert also features the tagline: “The living dead thirst for blood!”—a perfect representation of Fulci’s gruesome vision.

This rare Greek insert is a must-have for serious horror collectors and Fulci enthusiasts. Do you have any similar international posters with mismatched imagery? Share your thoughts in the comments!
