Day of the Dead

Day of the Dead

Directed by George Romero

After a zombie apocalypse, scientists attempt to reverse the reanimation process and train zombies to abstain from eating people. But this being one of George Romero's films, the scientists and military enforcers at the underground lab facility soon wind up in deep trouble. As with his previous two zombie films, Romero inserts a commentary on the decade it was made - the '80s - connecting the walking dead to the homeless, the poor and people with AIDS. Controversial on its release, DOTD later found a group of champions who consider it one of Romero's best.

An incredibly fun movie, defying all expectations of what modern zombie lovers would expect. The performances range from straight to campy, with Richard Liberty’s acting striking me as brilliantly funny and bizarre in the best way. As a part of the series or standalone, this movie holds its head high as a gory, tense watch. Bub is my favourite character in the entire horror genre, and I’m sure you’ll fall in love with him too.
