Leave your thoughts about Return of the Living Dead Part II.
| rec.arts.movies.reviewsMark R. LeeperAn occasional clever joke but in general a degradation of this branch of the series. |
| Aisle SeatMike McGranaghanReturn of the Living Dead Part II lacks the stinging humor Dan O'Bannon brought to the original. |
| Creative LoafingMatt BrunsonThis derivative sequel lacks the potency of its predecessor, which clearly possessed "More Brains!" |
| VarietyVariety StaffThe only saving grace in a totally misguided effort is the performance of character actor Bruns who is quite funny as the slightly off-the-wall doctor. |
| MovieFreak.comSara Michelle Fetters[It's] hard to imagine even die-hard genre fans who adore the original have much that's all that positive to say about this unfortunate misfire. |
| Filmcritic.comChristopher NullGiven the abundance of films like this, Return 2 is hardly a classic, but it's far better than it has any right to be. |
| New York TimesWalter Goodman... has nothing to do with George Romero's 1968 cult favorite ''Night of the Living Dead.'' |
| Cinema CrazedFelix Vasquez Jr.If you're going to force a sequel on us, you could at least get creative rather than just cribbing from Dan O'Bannon's original script. |
| User ReviewNick L" Get the Dang screwdriver outta my head " Alltime favorite childhood zom "b" horror movie. I watched this movie the year it came out on beta when I was 10 years old in 1988. This movie was my first taste of zombie movies and I was hooked. Years later I can still watch this movie and bring all those childhood memories "back to life" For me this movie has been the pinnacle for the b rated zombie flick " By the way can you tell me who the president of united states is?......... UMMMMM Hary Truman" |
| User ReviewAnthony JWhat a great movie. If you want an entertaining zombie night, see part 1 and 2 together. These two are definitely my favorites. |
