Summary: Disappointing end to the Trilogy
Review: Dawn of the Dead, while dated by todays standards, was one of the great horror movies of the 1970's. A gruesome splatterfest with a bit of social mockery thrown in. This third and final film was a big disappoinment to me.In this final part, the zombies now pretty much have run of the world..I guess...it's not made too clear. However at a secret research/military base, a group of soldier and scientists are holed up. In a crazed Dr. Frankensteinesque way, they are trying to train the zombies. Why? I'm not sure. With the world being overrun by the ghouls, what's the point of trying to train them. Things eventually go awry and hundreds of zombies located outside the faclities gates manage to get in and go on an eating spree. The acting, particularly from the soldiers/mercenaries is pitiful and this movie has none of the dark humor that was was the hallmark of Romero's first two movies. Despite what one may think would be an improvement in makeup and special effects techniques in the years since Dawn, the Zombies actually looked even worse. It sounds like there's lots of features on the special edition, but I don't think the movie can hold up well enough to warrant a purchase.

Summary: Okay
Review: This was an okay horror movie and a worthy sequel to the last film in the 'Living Dead' series by George A. Romero. However, it's nowhere as good as that of the original "Night Of The Living Dead" & the "Dawn Of The Dead". (which was made nine years later) 'Day' itself, although the last is possibly the weakest in the trilogy! The zombies are better than ever, but the storyline in this one is kind of dull and boring at times. The movie is actually almost like 'Dawn' all over again with some of the exact same death sequences but a bit different. Everything in the movie only picks up towards the end where the flesh eating zombies finally attack a group of survivors who have been hiding out in an underground bunker. The gore is MORE intense than the first two, but looks a little fake at times (how could that army guy still be alive after he got ripped in half at that one part???) OVERALL: 5/10. Not the best in the series but okay if you're a really hardcore horror fan. If you're looking for excellent horror though, stick with the first two and leave this in the shadows where it belongs.

Summary: Eh
Review: Alright, I'm not going to lie and say this movie is amazing. In fact, like the bio said, it's a sort of comedown from "Dawn of the Dead" and "Night of the Living Dead." Even still, this movie isn't appreciated as much as it should be. Any horror movie would be called a "comedown" compared to the afforementioned two films, which are amazing pieces of horrific cinematography. The makeup and gruesome effects are really what makes this movie so great. Towards the end, an eeiry almost human-like zombie named Bob chases a man down to a shut door. The man, fearing for his life and his inner organs, opens the door, only to discover a huge army of zombies standing behind it, more lustful for his innards than Bob. This man is wounded by Bob with a gunshot and falls into the letal army of zombies. They proceed to rip him apart and eat him, one of the most horrific images I've ever seen. Before I give away more of this movie, just see it. True, it's not as good as Romero's previous two masterpieces, but it's not bad - at all.

Summary: Great quality DVD. Still a weak movie.
Review: Roger Ebert made a comment on his review of "Day" that stuck out to me about how "Night" and "Dawn" have had elements ripped off from numerous other directors and writers, including Romero himself. Need I say more? This movie is the weakest of the entire trilogy hands down. I've always thought the other films ("Night" in particular) were kind of successes by mistake. I really don't think Romero knows what it is about his own eariler dead films that made them so unique and thought provoking. I can't agree with the comments about the appearence of the "zombies." I thought they looked horrible (in that negative way for zombies.) I could get into detail about my compliants of the film, but I won't as it's been covered numerous times. Savini's best zombie make up work is in the 90's remake of "Night." Some think that comment alone ruins my credibility. So why 3 stars? The DVD quality and extras do enhance this film. I think they invested alot of time to clean up the audio and video. It makes passing this cinematic gallstone alittle easier.

Summary: Amazing!
Review: The first time I saw this movie, I thought it was disappointing when compared to "Night" and "Dawn". After watching this DVD, though, I've completely reversed my original opinion. First of all, the picture quality is amazing! This DVD boasts "state-of-the-art picture quality" due to DiViMax mastering, and it shows. If not for the hair and dress styles, you might never know that this was filmed in 1985. Even the dark "cave escape" scenes are clear (not dark and murky). The sound and score are also pretty well-mixed and clear. Even without the amazing re-mastering job, this is just a great movie. It's not just blood and guts, although Savini dishes out some great gore. Romero again gives us strong and conflicting characters that drive the movie. Unlike many mindless horror movies, the plot theme and character interactions provoke thought without bogging down the tension and zombie fun. Personality conflicts between the scientists and the soldiers provide some great entertainment. I'm particularly fond of the Dr. Logan/Rhodes exchanges. And who would ever think you'd find yourself sympathetic and rooting for a "hero" zombie? This movie was originally supposed to have a grand apocolyptic feel to it, with tons of zombies and huge sets. Due to budgetary limitations, though, Romero had to settle for the smaller underground military base and fewer zombies. Personally, I think this smaller scope works better for the film, and keeps with the "Dead" series theme of a small group confined to a small area. Great DVD bonus materials and extras round out the package. This is a must-have for any Romero zombie fan. Highly recommended!

Summary: The best, if you ask me
Review: I think this is the best of the "Dead" series. Unlike "Night of the Living Dead", it's action and violence is faster and meaner (and mucho more graphic). And the story comes to the point much faster than "Dawn of the Dead". The plot is several years after the epidemic started, the zombies out number the humans 500 to 1, at least. There is a small research team run by the government that is experimenting on zombies. The tension between the doctors and the soilders is getting out of control. The performances are all over the place from a too calm and cool pilot playing it way too mellow, to the Hitlerish base commander hamming it up and bouncing off the walls. But I liked it, it was gross, and very disturbing. I heard that George Romero wanted to do something else with the final movie, and I wonder what it was.

Summary: The "Day" horror fans have been waiting for.
Review: Anchor Bay has long been the salvation of horror fans seeking special, budget priced editions of their favorite movies. Keeping with that tradition is this wonderful new edition of George A. Romero's "Day of the Dead". The extras are top quality, and this is the best transfer of the film I have ever seen. Read on for more... Many horror fans consider this to be the least of the series, since it wasn't the masterpiece that "Dawn of the Dead" was. In fact, the horror/comedy element has been traded for a more dark, sinister setting. The cold, unforgiving setting (an underground storage facility) is also complimented by the conflict between the characters. There is little in the way of pop-culture savvy humor as there was in "Dawn of the Dead". But where "Day of the Dead" excels is in the technical department. Tom Savini, modern horror's crowning makeup effects artist, has outdone himself in terms of realistic blood, gore, and executions. The zombies in "Day" are plentiful, so they got creative with ways of killing them off. The acting and the script are hit and miss. Even fans of the most inane horror movies can't ignore the overacting by many of the cast members. As well, the script seems most concerned with pumping in as must profanity and sexism/racism as possible. The script has more than it's share of intelligence, so the dialogue is sometimes hampered by going way over the top. But the story is excellent, and one that breathed new life into a series that could have just been a cookie-cutter zombie trilogy. The new DVD set is loaded with quality extras. Let's start with the commentary. Similar to the excellent commentary on the "Re-Animator" DVD, this is highly entertaining. George Romero, Cletus Anderson, Tom Savini, and star Lori Cardille all have fond memories of making "Day of the Dead", and they are loaded with colorful anecdotes and background stories. It is more like a reunion of old friends. Equally good is the new documentary, "The Many Days of Day of the Dead", which was produced in early 2003, and has interviews with the principle cast and crew. Similar to the commentary, it is mainly the cast and crew sharing fond memories, and is entertaining all the way through. The second featurette is a video diary of Tom Savini's makeup tests for the zombies in the film. I liked this one a lot because I have always admired the makeup and effects of "Day of the Dead" in particular. There is also an audio interview with the late Richard Liberty (Dr. Logan). The sound quality is fuzzy and the interview is not terribly interesting. Also included (for camp value) is an industry promo video for the Gateways Commerce Center, the underground storage facility where "Day of the Dead" was filmed. It is neither interesting or worth a second glance, but it is an interesting addition nonetheless. Anchor Bay has given horror fans a real treat with this DVD. The picture and sound quality far surpasses any print of the film before, and the extras are alone worth the price of admission. While fans may be divided on where this movie ranks in the "living dead" trilogy, it is still a great horror film and a showcase for Tom Savini's best work to date.

Summary: Day Of the Dead DVD Kicks a**
Review: Here it is. My full review of "Day of the Dead":
Symposis
I won't bother with this because I'm sure that everybody in the forum has seen this movie so I will go straight to the features.
Movie: 4/5 Sound & picture: For the past five years, I have watched Day of the dead on vhs. In Mono and the not so good picture quality.
So I watched this dvd last night and I was blowed away by how good this looks. The colours are brighter and it nice. I wonder how this would look like on a HDTV? The only problem was the visable color bars near the end of the movie that lasted for a few seconds but you can barely see it. But besides that, the picture is near perfect.
Picture: 4/5 The sound was also great too. It was in Dolby digital & 6.1 DTS-es. I could only listen to it in Dolby digital but it was still great. The only problem was that The music background was louder than the actors voices a little bit in only a few places. But thats the only problem. It sounds great though.
Sound: 4/5 Extras: They went all out on this dvd. The extras were very imformitive as well as funny. They got:
A brand new documentry with George A. Romero, Tom Savini,
And some of the actors and staff called "The many days of Day of the dead.
Behind the scenes of Day of the dead.
Theatrical Trailers and T.V spots.
Production photos.
Meorobilia photos.
Audio commentary with Richard Liberty (Dr. Logan.)
An 8 minute promotional video for the Wampump Mine (This is the most boring feature on this disk.)
And George's Bio.
Every extra (Except for the mine promo) is extreamly awsome. Extras: 5/5 Conclusion:
So in conclusion, this is the greatest special edition dvd anchor bay has ever released. I hope this dvd get the dvd of the year. This is a dvd no horror or dvd collector should be without. Overall: 4/5 :D :D :D :D
Rating:
Summary: DVD finally doing justice to a great horror film.
Review: After having Day of the Dead on Beta, VHS, Widescreen VHS, Laserdisc, Region 1, Region 2, and Region 4 DVD this Divimax edition is the clearest, cleanest best sounding version to date - the extra features are appreciated but a bit scant; what happened to the rest of the cast? This is finally one for the collection.
