We can all scratch another one off of our "Most Wanted on Blu-ray" list. Italian horror legend Lucio Fulci's Zombie is set to street from Blue Underground on October 25, 2011, mere days before Halloween. These days, Zombie may be best known in the hipper dorm rooms across America as that "shark versus zombie" flick, but it's also one of the most effective splatter fests of the 1970s. Get the full details on the Blu-ray edition after the jump.  

Here are the deets in the official press release from Blue Underground, courtesy of Rock! Shock! Pop!...
