Our take

A loosely connected sequel to Diary of the Dead, this fusion of zombie movie and western would be George A. Romero’s directorial swan song. Playing loving, widescreen tribute to William Wyler’s classic oater The Big Country, Survival of the Dead is an ingenious mash-up of its respective genre lores.
