''Buio Omega'' (aka ''The Final Darkness'', ''Beyond the Darkness'', ''Buried Alive'' and ''Dark Holocaust'') is a 1979 Italian horror/exploitation film directed by Joe D'Amato. This film remains controversial in many countries today, notably Australia, where it has been banned since 1992 due to very high impact violence throughout. ''Buio Omega'' remains banned in several other countries to this day. It was released to cinemas in Italy on November 15, 1979 and released theatrically in the United States to theaters, mostly Grindhouse theaters and drive-in theaters on June 1, 1984 briefly from the former U.S. independent distributor Aquarius films releasing (that also distributed other Italian gore classics Lucio Fulci's ''The Beyond''(film) as Seven Doors of Death, Umberto Lenzi's Cannibal Ferox as Make Them Die Slowly, and Zombie Holocaust as Dr. Butcher MD in the US between 1982 and 1983.) == Plot == Anna Völkl, the fiance of taxidermist Frank Wyler, dies of an illness in the hospital. But she was really killed via a voodoo doll that was handled by orphan Frank's jealous housekeeper, Iris. The housekeeper then breast feeds him for erotic lactation comfort. Yet still stricken with grief, Frank digs up Anna's body and preserves it per his profession so that he can be with his lover forever. Frank later picks up a stoned hitchhiker to his home. When she spots Anna's corpse, she panics and a struggle ensues. Frank tortures her before choking her to death. When Frank is not satisfied, his housekeeper tries to comfort him once more, this time with a handjob. A few days later, a jogger twists her ankle around Frank's home and he invites her in. They have sex on his bed, until Frank can't resist showing off Anna's corpse right next to them. Once more a fight ensues. Frank bites her neck and eats chunks of flesh. She survives, but dies via incineration. The housekeeper invites her old, eccentric relatives for dinner and announces her engagement to Frank. Yet Frank thinks otherwise and leaves her humiliated. After various detectives secretly search the house, Frank picks up a woman at a disco. Fortunately for her, Frank just sends her off due to the arrival of Anna's twin sister Elena. She faints on seeing Anna's corpse, and the housekeeper approaches her with a knife before Frank intervenes. The housekeeper therefore decides to attack Frank instead, with Elena's fate on the line. == Cast == *Kieran Canter as Frank Wyler *Cinzia Monreale as Anna Völkl / Elena Völkl *Franca Stoppi as Iris (housekeeper) *Sam Modesto as Mr. Kale *Anna Cardini as Jogging victim *Lucia D'Elia as Jan, hitch-hiker 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Beyond the Darkness (film)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
