Return of the Living Dead was a horror movie franchise that could never seem to find itself an audience after the original.

It went from the classic Dan O'Bannon film in 1985 which was a surprise critical and commercial success, to a series that went right off the rails instantly.

If you need proof of this, then here it is. Any zombie movie with the word "Rave" in the title cannot be good. And I am not hoping for an Oscar winner here, but I was hoping for something that at least respects the original. But this is just an abortion of a film. It is poorly made and acted. The effects are better than expected but cannot save this and make it enjoyable.

But there is one way to enjoy it. Cue up this podcast and watch it with the Birdhands crew. We will keep you company while you drop some ecstasy and smear vapo-rub on your backs as we get down and dirty and...Rave to the Grave!
