Great third official installment to the original George Romero's black and white Night of the Living Dead that started it all. Also see the Dawn of the Dead and Land of the Dead. The remake of Night of the Living Dead and Dawn of the Dead are good too. But nothing beats the true classics. Don't be confused by the rip off movies that gave zombie movies thier downfall for awhile and a bad name. This is a must see with its sequels/prequels.

This movie is very enjoyable if you like zombie movies, and this is Tom Savini at his best folks. This might be one of the goriest films ever. The underground military base makes for a creepy atmosphere with the dark tunnels, but I wish more of it was filmed outside like it's title would lead you to believe. Nonetheless, this is a great movie.

Tom Cruise can't act as good as the no-names in this one! a crowd pleaser for fans of the genre. If you don't like gore, catch it edited on sci-fi channel.

This is a good B movie. It is smarter than the two previous Dead films before it, with a lot of metaphors and references to human nature. However, it lacks the horror and creepiness of the original but is definitely much less corny than Dawn of the Dead. It also has better make-up and gore effects than the previous two films. A decent and fun B movie for fans of the genre.

We didn't realize that this is ONLY the bonus disc and does not contain the actual movie. Of course it's full of great behind-the-scenes. So if you are a big fan of the trilogy, and almost anyone who would sit through these movies is a big fan, then you're bound to enjoy the material on this disc. Just don't set yourself up for the disappointment that we had.

This movie is hard to explain, funny and gross at the same time. There are some classic lines in this movie, that you wouldn't think of hearing back in 1985. Fun flick to watch with friends.

I would consider this one of those movies I would not want to make someone else watch if you are a zombie movie fan but if you are a zombie movie fan this is one worth watching.
