An all-new chapter of horror is about to begin...

George A. Romero's Land of the Dead is the acclaimed director's long-awaited return to the genre he invented, beginning with the seminal Night of the Living Dead followed by Dawn of the Dead and Day of the Dead.

In Romero's harrowing newest vision, the world (as humankind has known it) is merely a memory. In its place is the never-ending nightmare existence of us-the living-versus them-the "walkers." What's left of mankind is cordoned off behind the walls of a fortified city while the walking dead roam the vast wasteland beyond. The few wealthy and powerful try to maintain an illusion of life as it was, dwelling high above the city in the exclusive towers of Fiddler's Green, the last bastion of the ruling class. On the streets below, however, the remaining, less fortunate of the city's inhabitants eke out a hard-scrabble life, seeking what little solace they can in the vices available-gambling, flesh trade, drugs-anything that offers even a fleeting respite from the hell their lives have become.

Both the lofty heights of Fiddler's Green and the demoralizing lows of the city below are lorded over by a handful of ruthless opportunists, led by Kaufman (Dennis Hopper), who keeps his hands in everything, from real estate to less above-board pursuits. To bring food and other essential supplies to the occupants of the city and to allow the Green's well-to-do to acquire the scarce luxury items to which they were once accustomed, a hardened group of mercenaries-headed by Riley (Simon Baker) and his second-in-command, Cholo (John Leguizamo)-run retrieval missions outside the city, protected by their massive armored vehicle, Dead Reckoning. Riley and Cholo, like Kaufman, are in it for the money, which they hope to use for their own escapes- Riley to the North, with promises of "a world without fences" and freedom, and Cholo to the luxury of Fiddler's Green, far away from the violent life he has known.

While Kaufman and his employees concern themselves with commerce, life is changing both within and beyond the walls of the city. Unrest and anarchy are on the rise among the city's disenfranchised and outside, the army of the dead is changing, evolving, learning to organize and communicate.

When Cholo commandeers Dead Reckoning, intent on extorting millions out of Kaufman and his cronies, Riley and his ragtag group-including Slack (Asia Argento) and Charlie (Robert Joy)-are called into action to stop Cholo and, in the process, protect the city and its population from the growing army of evolving zombies storming its weakening perimeter.

 George A Romero hasn't lost it!

This is once again a Brilliant Zombie film just how I like them as I am mad over Zombies and the Works of Romero.
There's even a Short Cameo from Simon Pegg and Edgar Wright in the "Photo Booth Zombie" bit where it shows that Simon Pegg wanted to be part of this Masterpiece of Horror.

 One of my Favourite Horror films.

George A. Romero 4th Installment in his Zombie Series.
About a City that is Protected by 2 rivers and An electric fence across the back so the Zombies can't get in & feed on Survivors in the city.The Survivors think their save but their in for a shock.The Zombies Manage to get smart and communicate each to find away 2 breach the barriers that block their path and get in to the city.This a action packed film with murder and mayhem .I recommend It to George A. Romero film fans.

nearly twenty years since george a romero released day of the dead, but he bounces back with this long awaited classic, not so atmospheric as the previous three films, but the special gore effects make up for that by the bucket loads. watch out for a special appearance by alltime gore effects maestro tom savini,as machete zombie, well worth a look, if its only for a minute.

Top 10  Reviewer Top 10 DVD Reviewer

When I saw this film in the cinema I was very unimpressed. But some how on DVD it works allot better.
The dead have taken over, The only survivors live in massive walled cities, the rich in the penthouse suits, the working class on the streets. But what nobody considered on was the dead to evolve and start to think for them selves and not to rely on there basic instinct's.
What happens then is a blood bath. As Romero thinks of as many grusome ways a human can die. It's this imagination that gives this slightly flawed film real life.
This was the weakest in the Legacy,until he made the very disappointing Diary's Of The Dead, but every now and then, you see the glimmer of why Romero was considered the master at his game.
Never can this film be held in the same light as the first three, but as a stand alone Zombie film, it's very good.
This fim is worth buying for any Zombie fan or hard core Romero lover.
