description
Dellamorte Dellamore, written by Gianni Romoli, co-produced by Gianni Romoli, Tilde Corsi and Michele Soavi, based on the novel written by Tiziano Sclavi (author of the cool comics character Dylan Dog), directed by Michele Soavi and starring Rupert Everett, François Hadji-Lazaro, Anna Falchi, has been considered a cult of the genre since its theatrical release (1994).
Francesco Dellamorte (Rupert Everett) is a guardian of the Buffalora cemetery, a North Italian town.
The protagonist's close collaborator is Gnaghi (François Hadji-Lazaro), who spends all his time in front of the tv set.
By day Francesco lives a boring and depressing life, but by night he becomes a living dead's exterminator.
In fact,dead people of the town come back to life seven days after their death.
The score is written by noted Manuel De Sica, author of several scores for Cinema and Tv (just to remember his two famous OST for the movies Amanti and Il giardino dei Finzi Contini, both directed by his father Vittorio).
The writer of these liner notes took already care of the original CD.
This ultimate de-luxe CD edition, prepared enthusiastically with the same M° De Sica, is the complete version of his OST that has been steadily requested by collectors until today.
We have listened to the original stereo recording session again and this gave us the chance to add nine themes never before released (with this addition, our digitally remastered and restored Cd).
The new tracks include a dance tune (Tr. 30), alternate takes of the album versions (for example Shoot the living with a mix of voice, Tr. 29) and long versions (truncated on the 1994 CD) of The rest of the world (doesn't exist) (Tr. 31) and Finale (Tr.32).
 
story

Achingly romantic and creepy-funny, this funereal fantasy from the director of La Chiesa (1989) is unlike any Italian film in memory.
Rupert Everett plays Francesco Dellamorte, a lonely cemetery caretaker who just wants to get out of his small town of Buffalora.
His assistant and sole companion, Gnaghi (played by famed French musician Francois Hadji-Lazaro) is an overweight cretin who speaks only in grunts, and the dead people outside are rising from their graves as zombies and trying to have him for breakfast.
This situation, coupled with all his other problems, gives Francesco a real complex.
His troubles are compounded when he meets a series of mysterious women (all played by the beautiful Anna Falchi) whom he loves before they die tragically.
Soavi's film is based on a graphic-novel, Dylan Dog by Tiziano Sclavi, but Soavi's more obvious influences range from Jean Rollin's La Rose de Fer (1973) to Tim Burton's Edward Scissorhands (1990).
Barbara Cupisti (of Soavi's Deliria) has a small role, and the film also benefits from Manuel de Sica's memorable score and excellent pacing by editor Franco Fraticelli.
This is a film to savor and it will go down as one of the most striking Italian genre efforts of the decade, despite some weak effects work by the normally reliable Sergio Stivaletti.
