About the film
Taking the genre that George A. Romero invented and turning it on its (severed) head, Alien screenwriter Dan O'Bannon made his directorial debut with one of the most beloved horror-comedies of the 1980s: the instant zombie classic The Return of the Living Dead.
Freddy is on his first day of work at the Uneeda Medical Supply Warehouse when his co-worker Frank decides to show off the airtight canisters filled with human remains in the basement, lost by the military long ago. One of the canisters unexpectedly leaks a poison gas and sets into motion a full-scale uprising of the undead, against which warehouse boss Burt, mortician Ernie and Freddy's punker friends may be the last defence.
