The Walking Dead | 1995 | R | - 4.7.10
"The Walking Dead" details the African-American experience in the Vietnam War.
SEX/NUDITY 4 - A woman and man are shown in bed together, briefly; we see shoulders and upper chests, and there's thrusting and moaning. A man and woman slow dance together and kiss, and fall in bed together hugging and kissing. There is a great deal of graphic talk about sex and women.
VIOLENCE/GORE 7 - Many scenes of war violence with explosions and shootings, resulting in injured and dead soldiers. A man's throat is slit and a few men are killed by stabbing and some men are killed by many bullets ripping through their bodies. A man and woman are shot off screen. A bag of maggot covered ears is briefly shown. A man bites the head of his comrade and a bloody patch is later shown. A woman is stabbed in the eye.
LANGUAGE 10 - 83 F-words, many scatological terms and milder obscenities.
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Vietnam War, racism, adultery, premarital sex, friendship.
MESSAGE - Racism destroys lives as does war, your friends are what matters.
CAVEATS
Be aware that while we do our best to avoid spoilers it is impossible to disguise all details and some may reveal crucial plot elements.
We've gone through several editorial changes since we started covering films in 1992 and older reviews are not as complete & accurate as recent ones; we plan to revisit and correct older reviews as resources and time permits.
Our ratings and reviews are based on the theatrically-released versions of films; on video there are often Unrated, Special, Director's Cut or Extended versions, (usually accurately labelled but sometimes mislabeled) released that contain additional content, which we did not review.
The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare - 5.7.5
Abigail - 1.9.10
Sasquatch Sunset - 8.7.0
Sting - 1.7.7
