Fun Stuff

Trivia:
At the end when the zombie soldiers coming out of their graves the tombstones have the names of veterans of the horror and zombie genre, easy to read are: Jacques Tourneur, G.A. Romero ( George A. Romero), Jean Yarbrough and Delbert Tenney ( 'Del Tenney (I)'), harder to read are: Lucio Fulci, Victor Halperin and Gordon Douglas. The (readable) graves have this order: Romero and Tenney in the first line, behind them Fulci and Halperin and in the last line behind Fulci is Tourneur, who is in the middle of Douglas and Yarbrough. more
Goofs:
Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): The first Marine to return from the dead tells the Air Force sentry, "At Ease, Soldier." Air Force personnel are properly addressed as "Airmen." more

Homecoming (2005)

*** (out of 4)

Joe Dante's Masters of Horror entry is about a bunch of dead soldiers who return from the grave so that they can vote. I'm not really into the political message the film had but other than that I really enjoyed the film. Some of the humor doesn't work but for the most part the jokes as well as the message come off very well.

I think this is still one of the better episodes, although I think Argento and Carpenter came off better with both of their films. I'm sure this one here will become a cult classic in the future.
