By the time DAY OF THE DEAD rolled around in 1985, George Romero had already made two masterpieces of zombie horror - so why not a third? Moving the action to a military bunker buried deep under Florida palms and honing in on the tension between everyday survivors and fascist authority grasping for power at the end of the world, DAY marries Romero’s trademark social commentary to claustrophobic horror and top-tier gore from master Tom Savini. Still as haunting, goopy, and crushingly relevant as ever, this is one of Romero’s angriest and most essential films.
