And now, for the terrifying (-ly pleasant) conclusion of the two-part Halloween 2008 Video Pop Special.Here it is, the catchiest horror-themed song of ALL-TIME (eat it, "Thriller"...just eat it), the product of a collaboration by Fabio Frizzi and Giorgio Tucci, the epic, triumphant, yet dirge-like dark pop title track from Lucio Fulci's classic horror film, Zombie (aka Zombi 2, aka Zombie Flesh Eaters).
Aside from the ominous chanting, it's hard to believe that such a catchy song was written for a horror movie. Never has the music of the undead sounded so mellifluous.

BONUS:
I almost forgot to mention that this killer song (channeling Cryptkeeper again) is featured in the film only a few times, but plays a prominent role on the soundtrack during what is not only my favorite scene in the movie, but also one of my favorite horror scenes ever put to film, period. Taking place underwater, the scene has come to be known to fans as simply "Zombie vs. Shark."
Too awesome for words.
Happy Halloween! And if you didn't do it early, don't forget to casket your vote in the general skelection! Sweet screams, boils and ghouls!
