Blu-Ray DVD is NEW and still SHRINK WRAPPED
Editorial Reviews
Chapter three of George Romero's mighty zombie trilogy has big footsteps to follow. Night of the Living Dead was a classic that revitalized a certain corner of the cinema, and Dawn of the Dead was nothing short of epic. Day of the Dead,
however, has always been regarded as a comedown compared to those twin
peaks--and perhaps it is. But on its own terms, this is an awfully
effective horror movie, made with Romero's customary social satire and
cinematic vigor--when a "retrained" zombie responds to the "Ode to
Joy," the film is in genuinely haunting territory. The story is set
inside a sunken military complex, where Army and medical staff,
supposedly working on a solution to the zombie problem, are going crazy
(strongly foreshadowing the final act of 28 Days Later). Tom Savini's makeup effects could make even hardcore gore fans tear off their own heads in amazement.

| Movie description | The third chapter in the saga that director George Romero started in 1968 with NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD moves the story further along the timeline of the zombie apocalypse to a time when survivors are few and far between. At an underground Florida research station, Dr. Logan (Richard Liberty) conducts grotesque experiments on captured zombies to search for a way that the living and the living dead can cohabitate. Begrudgingly sharing the facility with the doctor is military man Rhodes (Joe Pilato) and his underlings. Scientist Sarah (Lori Cardille) and her fellow survivors seek refuge at the compound just in time to see a clash between Logan and Rhodes reach a critical turning point.
DAY OF THE DEAD stands as the most controversial film in the series. While some feel that its confined, talky nature prevents it from achieving the constant white-knuckle thrills of the previous two films, others admire its strides toward figuring out what drives the zombies. Regardless, the third act features the most extreme and well-executed special effects in the series, with several gory sequences that will leave an undeniable impression on those who witness them.

| | Editorial reviews | "...Affords [Romero] the opportunity for intermittent philosophy and satire, without compromising his reputation as the grisliest guy around..."
New York Times - p.C19 - Janet Maslin
"From its damning portrait of US militarism to its uproarious gore FX, the third entry in Romero's zombie cycle is superb."
Sight and Sound - Matthew Leyland (06/01/2006)
