This week on the Everything Actioncast, Zach and Chris head into the zombie apocalypse and discuss George A. Romero's Day of the Dead, which just got a new 4-disc 4K release from Scream Factory. The third film in Romero's zombie franchise, Day of the Dead follows a group surviving in an underground facility in Florida. A group of scientists is studying the dead and trying to find a cure (at least one of them is), while a group of soldiers defends the facility. When the commanding officer, Major Cooper, dies, the sadistic Captain Rhodes (Joseph Pilato) takes over, and things in the shelter quickly go downhill. One of the scientists, Dr. Logan aka Frankenstein (Richard Liberty) has been experimenting on the zombies and has seemingly domesticated a zombie named Bub (Sherman Howard) who shows glimmers of remembering his old, human life. Zach and Chris discuss the clashing philosophies of the different factions, the incredible special effects from Tom Savini, the variety of wacky zombies in the horde, random alligators, and more. You can watch Day of the Dead in the new 4K release or on Peacock, Tubi, Shudder/AMC+, Pluto TV, and The Roku Channel.
