In Italy, it was considered the 'unofficial sequel' to DAWN OF THE DEAD. In England, it was known as ZOMBIE FLESH-EATERS and banned as obscene. In America, it was called ZOMBIE and advertised with the depraved tag line "WE ARE GOING TO EAT YOU! " Tisa Farrow (MANHATTAN), Richard Johnson (THE HAUNTING) and Ian McCulloch (CONTAMINATION) star in this worldwide splatter sensation directed by the Maestro Of Gore Lucio Fulci (CONTRABAND, CONQUEST, THE BEYOND) that remains one of the most eye-skewering, skin-ripping, gore-gushingly graphic horror hits of all time!
Composer, orchestrator and conductor, Fabio Frizzi, with over one hundred soundtracks between cinema and television series, winner of numerous awards, has followed in the footsteps of the masters of Italian cinema.
A great lover of cinema, he combined his innate musicality with the seventh art from a young age. In love with Baroque and Johann Sebastian Bach, inspired by the works of Nino Rota, Carlo Rustichelli, Ennio Morricone, but also by the great international composers, he made his decision to undertake this career after having witnessed, thanks to Sergio Leone, the recording of the soundtrack of "Giù la testa".
He studied piano and many other instruments, but the great companion of a lifetime is the classical guitar. In addition to composing for the movie industry, he signed the music of many TV series and variety shows for the Italian television. He writes a lot for the theatre and considers the creation of his numerous ballets a feather in his cap.
The beginning of his career was marked by the success of an iconic comedy of Italian cinema, FANTOZZI. Immediately afterwards he formed a composition trio with Franco Bixio and Vince Tempera: together they carried out a great activity from 1976 to 1979.
In 1979 this collaboration ended and his life as an independent composer began.
He worked alongside famous Italian directors, Luciano Salce, Steno, Vittorio Sindoni, Tonino Valerii, Gabriele Lavia, Bruno Corbucci, Carlo and Enrico Vanzina.
A special mention deserves the collaboration with the director Lucio Fulci, which lasted from 1975 to 1990, a real fil rouge of Frizzi's career, which gave him an international visibility and appreciation among the lovers of genre cinema.
"THE BEYOND", "CITY OF THE LIVING DEAD", "THE FOUR OF THE APOCALYPSE", "SEVEN NOTES IN BLACK", "SILVER SADDLE". "ZOMBI 2", "MANHATTAN BABY", "UN GATTO NEL CERVELLO" are the most popular titles.
In 2003 Quentin Tarantino, a great fan of Lucio Fulci's cinema, wanted to include in the soundtrack of "K*ll BILL: VOL 1" the main theme of "SEVEN NOTES IN BLACK".
Since 2008 he has had many international collaborations, writing music for successful short films. Since 2013 he has been working with some independent US productions involved in the horror industry. In 2018, for the Cinestate of Dallas Sonnier and Fangoria he created the soundtrack for "PUPPET MASTER THE LITTLEST REICH". At the end of 2020 the same production released another horror genre classic remake, ”CASTLE FREAK” scored by Frizzi.
Since 2013 Frizzi has been travelling the world with its 3 shows that attract many fans almost everywhere: Europe, North America, Middle East... "FRIZZI 2 FULCI" a tribute to the director Lucio Fulci, "THE BEYOND COMPOSER'S CUT", the screening of one of his cult movies with the live performance of the soundtrack and "FABIO FRIZZI - REWIND" an autobiographical show of music and anecdotes.
His autobiography, "FABIO FRIZZI - Backstage di un compositore" has just been released in Italy.
