      steve d Steeling a title from a classic does not help if your movie is as witless as this one. Makes the remake with the vegetarian zombie look like a classic. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review William S This is a joke and should not have the Day of the Dead George Romero name should have been called Zombie bomb Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/14/20 Full Review Audience Member This joke has no relation to the original Day of the Dead yet this slapped 2 behind it. How did they get away with this? Anyway, the movie is a giant heaping pile of rotting zombie guts and not in a good way. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review darin c Crapola! This film bares NO connection with any George Romero masterpiece and rips the name off a good movie. I've seen bad zombie movies that were still better than this as I'm usually a big zombie fan. These zombies can crawl on ceilings, but the movie should fall on the floor! Poor acting and a dumb plot. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member After watching this, I am in no doubt, that this film doesn't deserve a star rating. (ok, probably half a star at the very most) I was extremely disappointed with this film. Please if you are a fan of the first Day of The Dead film, keep it at that. Day of The Dead 2: Contagium has absolutely nothing to do with the first film and is just a cash-in because Taurus Entertainment Company hold the rights to the original 1985 film. So in their eyes, this is an official sequel, but the fans now this most definitely not to be the case. So the bottom line basically is, please save yourself the time and don't watch this film! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member It's frightening to think that horror neophytes will automatically assume that George A. Romero had something to do with Day of the Dead 2: Contagium, though it's a sequel in name only (that, and the fact that a brief prologue occurs in 1968 - the same year Romero's Night of the Living Dead was released).
