The intense loneliness of Day of The Dead. A film with a few but very stereotypical cast. The cast consists of an independent female leader‚ a crazy doctor‚ a lazy happy Jamaican‚ a drunk Irish‚ and a group of angry gung ho soldiers looking for an excuse to kill the scientists.

This goes on for about nine

In my opinion Land of the Dead is the last of good Dead films‚ as I’m not a fan of the next two installments. Land of the Dead is last film where the undertones of what zombies represent‚ in the first film disease most notably AIDS‚ Dawn commercialism... here it’s about the wealth gap between the rich and the poor.

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead A tragic hero is a person of a higher class that experiences a fall from greatness. Tom Stoppard’s play‚ Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead‚ displays two characters‚ R and G‚ who are clearly not tragic heroes.
