Return of the Living Dead

Couldnt find a thread on this....

Last time I saw this I was about 11,Bought it the other day for 3 quid,thought it would be awful its actually not too bad, more of a comedy horror. Quite funny intentionally and unintentionally, not enough Zombie action for my liking but still some cool scenes, particularly the pick axe in the back of the head and a couple of nice head eating shots and a ridiculous 80's hair metal soundtrack.

Anyone else seen it?

Yeah, its great.
Dont get number two though, I paid three quid for that 🙁

I think 2 is better..but yeah, saw/own the first.

yeah......RotLD is great........I own the first 3.............1 and 2 were both great tongue in cheek takes on the zombie genre..........3 is just a bad b-movie.

Funnier, IMO. More gore, more zombies, less senseless cursing, less annoying characters.

The 3rd was just ****ing stupid. Foam rubber zombies. Oh no!

Just watched Part 2 for the first time in 15 years. It seemed to me, devoid of any atmosphere or soul, too much (attempted!)comedy and not enough horror. It seemed to me,that the person who made it didnt really like horror films or know how to make them and listening to the commentary confirmed this.It was made just for cash and not through love.

I think the 1st one was much better and more alive (ahem!), better story and structure. It went further in the violence and horror aspects,I preffered the zombies even though there were less of them, and the excellent brain crunching. The 2nd part seemed more sanitised , its blackened heart missing and aimed towards a more mainstream and young audience.

How can ROTLD 2 be less annoying? Two main characters are 11 year old 80's kids 😐

😆

Blackcat, what r u laughing at? you thought that it was based on a true story..hysterical

Just saw it and thought it was pretty good, The Cheesy Cliched 80's punks were great "I just wanna partyyyy" 😂

I know Cinemaddiction isn't going to agree but i loved part 3 okay, it had a couple of flaws but if you saw the uncut version it had some pretty good gore, the automutilation scene was great! I just loved the first two also to me they are far better than the romero's sorry guys!

The 1st two are great!!

Gaetane, I saw the uncut version and loved it! 😱

BRAINS BRAINS BRAAAAINS!!!!

I loved the first one!! haha

are you crazy? i loved rotld but no way in the world do these films top romero`s trilogy in fact nothing beats the dead trilogy as far as zombie movies go
