Return of the Living Dead Series Episode 4

It’s hard to kill a zombie in Return of the Living Dead. Shoot them, burn them, they keep coming back for more brains. But after 1993 it seemed the zombies had finally been killed for good by the most harrowing of enemies-intellectual property rights issues. Leave it to Hollywood to never leave money on the table, though, as the zombie resurgence of the early 21st century with 28 Days Later and Dawn of the Dead enabled Return of the Living Dead to crawl from the grave again with not one but two low-budget, direct-to-SyFy Channel sequels. This week on Now Playing Podcast’s bonus donation series Stuart, Arnie, and Jakob watch the first of these films: Return of the Living Dead-Necropolis. Is watching this film worse than eating cooked, zombified rat? If you donate to support Now Playing Podcast you can listen and find out!
