Movie Reviews

House Next Door - 10/10 by Simon AbramsThe Return of the Living Dead is in fact the real deal.
Cinema Crazed - 10/10 by Felix Vasquez Jr.For pure eighties, punk rock, walking dead, brain eating mayhem, this is the film to watch.
Sarasota Herald-Tribune - 10/10 by Christopher LloydEd O'Bannon and John Russo may have intended The Return of the Living Dead as a comedy, but it's just too damn gory, too scary and too good to be dismissed as a zom com.
rec.arts.movies.reviews - 9/10 by Shane BurridgeThis isn't a sequel - it's a reinventing of how zombies had been seen on the screen
The Blu Spot - 9/10 by Jeff BeckDan O'Bannon's The Return of the Living Dead is a classic of the zombie genre that delivers a good laugh with its silly, over-the-top nature, while also giving you several thrills along the way.
Film Threat - 9/10 by Pete Vonder HaarA fresh and immensely entertaining take on the zombie genre
Slant Magazine - 8/10 by Jeremiah KippSuffice to say, this small offering from the horror genre is a hoot to watch, with never a dull moment.
ESplatter - 8/10 by Steve BiodrowskiAn amusing, punk variation on the familiar zombie theme.
Under the Radar - 8/10 by Austin Trunick[Return of the Living Dead] stood the test of time because it blended real scares and a few honest-to-goodness, heart-wrenching moments in with its humor.
Washington Post - 8/10 by Rita KempleyAny film which features a dead, bald and very hungry punk lurching towards the camera screaming 'More Brains!' gets my vote.
