Day of the Dead (1985)
What people think it is: A very talky, gory and not-very-scary take on the zombie genre. Plus, no one really understood Bub.
What it is: This is actually a pretty accurate look at how humans would behave, if we were the last ones on Earth. It’s not meant to be a scary horror film, but a pessimistic and brooking look at mankind’s futility.
With an IMDb Score of 8.8 I wouldn´t call it underrated.
Marvellous Soundtrack by the Dust Brothers btw
H.R.Giger desingning the Harkonnen chairs and table adds to the unique atmosphere. Great cast including Juergen Prochnow, Virginia Madsen, Kyle McLachlan, Max v. Sydow, Dean Stockwell, Patrick Stewart and Sting(!)
Looking forward to see the new iteration!
