Day of the Dead (2008)
Had not seen this remake before. Whereas I enjoyed the remake of Dawn of the Dead, this felt much lower budget. Again it made the zombies more rage virus-style, ie fast (and able to jump out of third storey windows in ridiculously sped-up footage), but the effects were so weak it looked lame.
Ving Rhames had a cameo- maybe a nod to Dawn- but there is a reason this film was less feted. Easy to guess who dies and overall pretty dull.
4/10.
