Nick Schager Lessons of Darkness Incompetent in every respect. Rated: D- Jul 2, 2010 Full Review Jordan Snowden Pittsburgh City Paper The plot is all over the place. The special effects are pulsing, nausea-inducing, amateurish, and laughable, and they tried too hard to make the zombies different from those who came before. Oct 16, 2019 Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews A chaotic mess of violence and gore... Rated: 1/4 Mar 7, 2009 Full Review Walter Chaw Film Freak Central The only possible response to the benighted thing is pity. Rated: 0/4 Jan 13, 2009 Full Review Lucius Gore ESplatter It's such a fun zombie movie, I'm amazed it didn't get a full theatrical release. Rated: 3/4 Jun 17, 2008 Full Review Brian Orndorf DVDTalk.com It's a pageant of stupidity that hopes gushing wounds and deliberate fanboy-catnip slices of ultraviolent cheese will mask the reality that it's a worthless offering in an increasingly abused genre.

Tim M A remake in name only, Day of the Dead takes an already threadbare zombie storyline and zaps it of any life or originality. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/02/24 Full Review Fleegle B A really enjoyable Zombie movie Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/14/24 Full Review Tony M This is an ok remake of a zombie classic. I preferred the Night & Dawn remakes but this is still worth a watch. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 09/14/23 Full Review Jack W Fairly enjoyable movie. Movie sure did scare me, especially with that radio station scene! I haven't seen the original, but I might one day- and I really hope it manages to be as good as this one. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/16/23 Full Review Pete P Bionic zombies that crawl on ceilings are just what's needed in the genre. I watched it and it passed the time but inferior to the original on every level. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Obiwan K Where to start with this one? Perhaps the terrible acting, casting and effect work? Also most of the shots were either too bright or too dark. Blurry, shaky camera during action. Overall its the worst zombie flick to be based off Ramero's work. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 09/03/22 Full Review Read all reviews
