Back of the box:
The third chapter in writer-director George Romero's classic zombie film
saga finds a group of scientists and soldiers hiding in an underground
bunker to escape a world overrun by the flesh-eating undead. The
scientists desperately seek a way to control the zombies, while the military
just wants to kill as many of them as possible. But infighting between the
two groups takes a backseat when the zombies invade the subterranean
facility.
The Bloody Truth:
Like all of Romero's Dead films there are overtones of social and
psychological commentary throughout. The characters, while slightly more
stereotypical than in previous films remain a well crafted centerpiece to the
story. The special effects have increased ten fold from Dawn of the Dead
and showcase some of Tom Savini’s finest work. Despite the shared story
concept, just like Night and Dawn, Day stands on its own as a original
character driven Zombie classic. An absolute must see!
