The Video says:

A national emergency grips the country. Corpses of the recently-dead are returning to life and attacking the living, devouring their victims. In the big cities, people panic and confusion reigns. Two members of a Philadelphia S.W.A.T. unit decide to escape the city. They are Roger and Peter. The two escape with their friends Francine and Stephen in a traffic helicopter taken from the television station where they work. The four manage to land on the roof of a huge out-of-town hypermarket. Sustained by the last word in supplies and armed with weapons from the sporting goods store, the four survivors manage to secure the shopping mall. They set up living quarters in a Civil Defense storage area, and so are able to live in the building for months. One day a band of Hell's Angels on motorcycles and in vans, raid the mall to loot the shops. The bandits manage to reopen the secured entrances and the zombies move back into the building. In an extraordinary battle sequence many of the raiders are killed. The fate of the besieged four is in the hands of the band of scavengers and the horde of zombies closing in from all sides. Can they escape? Will it be worth it even if they do...?

My Opinion:

This is the best zombie movie that has ever been made! If you don't have this in your collection then shame on you. George A. Romero brings to the screen the ultimate zombie movie. Even though some of the acting is wooden and the film is starting to age, there is no denying the fact that there is no other zombie movie to compare it to. The music and direction make the film a classic piece of horror and the director's cut (which this isn't) is even better.
