Red Dawn of the Dead

     In 1986, the Soviet Union and Cuba invade the United States of America; unfortunately, they brought something even deadlier with them... A plague created by the Chernobyl meltdown which causes the reanimation of the dead. Within a matter of days, the entire soviet invasion force succumbs to the virus and begins preying upon human flesh across the country.

      The story follows a small group of suburban Milwaukee survivors who are on the run from their undead would-be foreign conquerors. After running low on ammunition and supplies, they decide to barricade themselves in a downtown shopping mall and defend the facility until help arrives.... If they just wait long enough, help will surely arrive...

The fact that we have two Red Dawn Mashups on the board, surely elevates this film to classic status, no?

Red Dawn is comedy gold! Hilariously dated, featuring three things that disapeared by the early 1990's; Patrick Swayze, the Soviet Union and Lea Thompson.

I kind of wish Lea Thompson hung around. Remember "The Wild Life"?

Speaking of Lea Thompson, how about the "Back to the Future" franchise?  Or "Spacecamp"?
