Wonderful character development!

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

Return of the Living Dead: The Dead Have Risen (2007) *** (out of 4)Clu Gulager, James Karen, Thom Matthews, Linnea Quigley, Allan Trautman, Brian Peck, Beverly Randolph and Don Calfa are all interviewed in this 20-minute featurette that can be found on THE RETURN OF THE LIVING DEAD Blu-ray. The featurette was originally on the second release of the film and watching it today, there's no question that it's fun but it's also been replaced with a much longer documentary on the film and series. With that said, all of the actors appear to be having fun talking about the film and each other. We get some nice stories about the casting and there are plenty of stories dealing with how rough the shoot was and especially during the night scenes, which were cold and the cast was wet. The actors all talk about director Dan O'Bannon and what he brought to the picture. It's clear that all of them have a great love for the film as they know they were in something special. Fans will enjoy seeing all the cast members and hearing these stories.

This neat little twenty minute retrospective documentary interviews several cast members from the horror comedy cult classic "The Return of the Living Dead." James Karen reveals that he came up with the idea for his character to kill himself and two weeks were spent on rehearsal prior to the shooting of the picture. Beverly Randolph didn't see Allan Trautman as the Tarman zombie until he was in his full make-up and literally ran herself dry from crying so much throughout the shoot. Linnea Quigley points out that she had a special make-up appliance covering her groin and got strep throat from the exceptionally icky conditions the picture was filmed under. Don Calfa talked about weapons with writer/director Dan O'Bannon and listened to certain types of music in order to get the right emotion for a particular scene. Brian Peck previously only portrayed nerds prior to be cast as a punk in this movie and happily reminisces about his gruesome death scene. Everyone admits that they enjoyed working with each other. Loaded with choice clips and cool behind the scenes stills, this one is well worth a watch for fans of the film.
