The 3rd in George A. Romero's Dead series, which sadly is the weakest of the first three.
The film has a fairly interesting (yet kind of unrealistic premise) of The Zombies out numbering humans 1 to 40,000. Which leads us to an underground bunker where we have a common war between Scientists and the Army.
The most interesting parts in the film would probably be a trademark gory sequence (even if it's nothing we haven't seen before in previous Dead films.) and the "Frankenstien" professor and Bub (which seems straight out of Bride of Frankenstien (1935), the Doctor even sounds like the Blind Man from BoF!) Sadly, the film at times is really way to talky, and drags. Some characters are under-written, and it's allegorical content seems a bit even more phoned in then it did with Dawn of the Dead, released years earlier.
Regardless of these facts, this is still more memorable then the average horror film, but most viewers will probably be hoping more from Romero's signature series.
If you love Zombie films, by all means check this out, but watch Night of the Living Dead and Dawn of the dead first.
