"**** THERE’S PLENTY TO DELIGHT IN ROMERO’S SIXTH ZOMBIE EAT-‘EM-UP. The film’s final image is a mythopoetic doozy, HILARIOUS AND HUMBLING ALL AT ONCE."
-Keith Uhlich, Time Out New York
"THE BEST HORROR-COMEDY-WESTERN YOU’LL EVER SEE."
-Time Out New York
"RABIDLY ENTERTAINING! One of the best looking of Romero’s films with sharp jabs of black humor, wild moments of intestine-chomping gore and surprising bursts of social commentary."
-Dennis Dermody, Paper
"Romero is a fount of inspiration. Scarcely a zombie dies in a boring way."
-Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun Times
"A ROLLICKING, RAMBUNCTIOUS, OFTEN HILARIOUS, FREQUENTLY REVOLTING INVERSION OF GENRES THAT COULD ONLY COME FROM ROMERO. A great, eccentric, tightly paced and unconventional film. Viewed as a piece of Romero’s ongoing cinematic puzzle, IT’S ESSENTIAL."
-Chris Alexander, Fangoria
"*** It mixes genres and milieus with absurdist glee."
-Stephen Rea, Philadelphia Inquirer
"Survival of the Dead is, hands down, the best Dead film since Day."
-Devin Faraci, CHUD
"Survival is the funniest Dead film."
-Devin Faraci, CHUD
"…it's a damn good, damn interesting, damn unique film from a filmmaker who isn't resting on his laurels but rather still earning our respect and loyalty."
-Devin Faraci, CHUD
"A WELCOME RETURN TO FORM FOR ROMERO. The most picturesque of his zombie film. There’s infectious humor, pathos and intensity and old-fashioned directorial mastery."
-Stuart Klawans, The Nation
"KUDOS TO THE GRAND OLD MAN OF THE DEAD FOR RECLAIMING WHAT’S HIS, ON HIS TERMS."
-Maitland McDonagh, Film Journal
"****1/2. Arguably one of the best in the ‘of the dead’ series."
-Scott A. Johnson, Dread Central
"Old school horrorheads will find enough here to rejoice."
-Jamie Graham, Total Film
