Day of the Dead

Day of the Dead (1985), George Romero:
What a disppointing finish to the zombie trilogy, dispite Mr. Romero's assertion that he considers it his best. None of the three really get A-movie treatment, but where Night used sharp human interactions and Dawn whimsical commentary on commercialism, this seems content to wallow in B-movie values. The characters are stock horror types, the dialogue is just an extention of that. The movie is just a vehicle for the (admittedly great) zombie freakout at the end.
5/15
