Day of the Dead
“I’ll never get sick of zombies. I just get sick of producers.” – R.I.P. George A. Romero – 1940-2017
By this time the Dead have triumphed and human beings are on the run. Cooly received at the time of its spotty unrated release in 1985, this third Dead movie has been staging something of a critical comeback in recent years.
