Notes	This is the official sequel to Night of the Living Dead. The zombie plague has gotten out of control and most major cities are overrun with not only zombies but looters and militia as well. There are 3 versions of this film with the Italian version being the shortest but most gory. To get the full effect of this great classic you must see the directors cut which is a gore packed 139 minutes. This has to be hands down one of the best zombie films ever made for many reasons. There is a special edition 3 disk set which has all 3 copies of the film plus interviews and commentaries.
