Day of the Dead
Directed by George Romero
After a zombie apocalypse, scientists attempt to reverse the reanimation process and train zombies to abstain from eating people. But this being one of George Romero's films, the scientists and military enforcers at the underground lab facility soon wind up in deep trouble. As with his previous two zombie films, Romero inserts a commentary on the decade it was made - the '80s - connecting the walking dead to the homeless, the poor and people with AIDS. Controversial on its release, DOTD later found a group of champions who consider it one of Romero's best.

Beautiful, perfect film. No notes.
a old time classic with good and funny
hands down Romero's best Zombie film, certainly my favorite Zombie Movie. the acting, effects, plot, score, all perfect to the movie for me. A movie arguing that maybe the zombies deserve to win its not completely hopeless the perfect film to watch on Halloween .
A gorey operatic classic about competing authorities and viewpoints in a post-sanity world - something that feels more and more relevant with each passing day.
