Favourite Zombie movie ever. There's genuine tension between the characters and because they're confined and their behaviour is so unpredictable it creates a feeling of dread, uncertainty and fear. The practical effects are superb and still stand up today + Romero was always big on character development, and that - along with everything else - is what gives this zombie movie the edge over everything else.

Filme bacana, o roteiro é bacaninha, o filme tem cenas bacanas e mostra o médico fazendo diversas experiências para transformar zumbis em pessoas meio normais, o elenco é bacaninha, e alguns ajudam a melhorar o filme, a história é bacaninha, e eu recomendo esse filme.

My favorite movie in the series.. the gore is great!

Remarkably bad. Some of the worst acting ever committed to film. Gore effects are quite good, however - especially for 1985.

The problem with Day of the Dead is that the actors playing the humans are chewing the scenery more than the actors that are playing the zombies. Every scene is full of overacting, which only accentuates the clumsy dialogue. The pacing also felt very slow, and it wasn’t until the finale that things got interesting. I did like the Bub storyline, though. That was entertaining. And I thought Tom Savini’s visual effects were impressive, yet stomach-turning. Sorry, Day of the Dead, but it seems to me that Night of the Living Dead is still the strongest entry in George A. Romero’s horror film franchise.

Zombie classic, effects ahead of its time.. Loved it has a kid, still love it now

Are you a fan of scenery-chewing, hammy acting, and bad dialogue? If so, this is the movie for you.

While missing the primal horror of Night and the sharp satire of Dawn, Day of the Dead attacks the central theme of human behaviour ruthlessly, almost silently, turning it over time and again. It unfolds like a waking nightmare, one that nobody can wake up from, it feels frustrated and embittered, made by a man who's fed up with the business side of the movie industry. A tragedy about how a lack of human communication causes chaos and collapse even in a small slice of society, less political than philosophical. Beginning from a position of absolute misanthropy, Romero asks what it means to be human and if we're even worth saving, and the answers are funny, horrifying and ultimately hopeful. This deconstruction is so encompassing that the climactic explosion of zombie mayhem, revealing and awesome though it is, is practically an afterthought. Astute direction, fabulous performances and a fantastic musical score ultimately leave Day of the Dead as a fitting final entry in Romero's Dead trilogy with its frosty pessimism about mankind's future eventually getting under your skin.

The practical effects are the star of the show here.

Day of the Dead served to be an important chapter in George Romero's franchise because it finally showed viewers what they had probably been wondering for years. "Is anyone doing anything to fix this zombie virus?" Showing the experimentations on the zombies along with the soldiers succumbing to cabin fever, this film almost makes you forget about the threat outside the walls of the bunker. I also love how much Day of the Dead reminds me of Season 1 of The Walking Dead. Greg Nicotero made sure DOTD walked so TWD could run.

It may be blasphemous to say, but I think Day Of The Dead might be my favourite entry in George A. Romero’s original Living Dead Trilogy. It might lack much of the social commentary of Dawn and the shocking authenticity of Night, but it makes up for it with its memorable characters, unbelievable gore effects and its development of zombie law and characteristics. As the films goes on, the characters, whittled down by the apocalypse and increasingly isolated from what’s left of the world, learn more about the creatures and witness their ability to slowly but surely acquire or recall basic knowledge. It’s an interesting concept that Zombie flicks don’t often explore, and it gives a chance for the scientist to be inquisitive and the grunts to be dismissive and obnoxious. The character of Rhodes is among the most over the top villains I’ve seen for a while, but there’s at least a reason why he’s antagonistic, and isn’t just doing it for the sake of being a baddie. It’s the goriest of the 3 films, and since it was all done practically, it still has the power to disgust and amuse viewers almost 40 years later. The ending feels like a cheat, as if Romero ran out of ideas and just wanted to get to the finish. Small issues aside, it might not be the most acclaimed Zombie film, but of the first 3, it’s the one I enjoyed the most.

1980s version of the Day of the Dead story, the makeup is really impressive and the star of the show. The characters are hilarious and very 80's esque in nature. Worth watching once, not great but okay.

Despite having half the budget he wanted, George Romero did a great job. The plot isn't clever but the special effects are, so no surprise to find 2 effects artists from TWD worked on this.

Similar to my alien3 review this is dark and very bleak but the characters the mistrust the constant arguing it's great and the small sub stories small but still brilliant and rhoades too,what a great end to one of the best trilogies.

My second favorite zombie movie of all time...only return of the living dead above it.This movie is so underrated and great.Yes it's better than dawn,land etc.Good cast,great atmosphere and savini in all his glory with practical effects.

A few extremely unlikeable characters aside, 'Day of the Dead' provides an interesting view on the zombie apocalypse and ties up the trilogy with a satisfying enough climax...

Surprisingly penetrating for a zombie flick! Fun watch!

The greatest horror film the world's ever known.

Super good FX and me being someone who loves using fake blood and make up, this was a very cool experince. I really enjoyed it. GREAT ZOMBIE MOVIE

It's a truly great film.
