Day of the Dead (1985)

Third film in Romero's 'Dead' series, this is a very talkie zombie movie. Most of the film is set in a bunker where a small group of scientists, solders, and private contractors carry on, ostensibly trying to find a solution to the zombie plague, but mostly just infighting. Much weaker then its two predecessors, the ending is satisfactorily exciting, but much of the film is slow and full of people gripping. The characters are pretty week, and ironically the most dynamic among them is probably a zombie named Bud. Worth seeing for completeness sake. **
