Synopsis

Day of the Dead, the third and concluding chapter in George Romero's zombie trilogy is the most distinctly 1950s-style science fiction version of the lot. Set in Florida, as the film begins the dead have taken over the world, outnumbering humans 400,000 to one. The handful of surviving humans have taken refuge in an underground missile silo and argue and yell at each other like players in a Rod Serling Twilight Zone episode. Among the survivors are Sarah (Lori Cardille) -- a scientist who is trying to reverse the process whereby the dead turn into flesh-eating, irrational zombies -- and Dr. Logan (Richard Liberty) -- an out-of-his-mind psychologist who wants to capture the zombies and turn them into domestic help. Things heat up when the military tries to take over the scientific experiments. ~ Paul Brenner, All Movie Guide

Day of the Dead: AMG Review
Keith Phipps , AMG

The last, to date at least, of George Romero's living dead films is in many respects the least interesting, although it's not for a lack of ambition. Set in a claustrophobic underground missile silo long after the zombies have taken over the surface, it populates its creepy milieu with two competing factions: soldiers and scientists. One party seeks a logical solution to the zombie problem, even going so far as to attempt to domesticate a soulful-looking walking corpse. The other seeks only survival. The most blatantly allegorical of the Dead films, it's also the muddiest and least resonant, with its attempt to connect its story to Reagan-era America coming off as too self-conscious when compared to its predecessors. Too talky by far, it comes alive in a gory finale, and while still memorable than most horror films, Romero fans have come to expect more from the director and his signature series. ~ Keith Phipps, All Movie Guide
