Captain Rhodes
Captain Rhodes (Joseph Pilato) is a fictional character from George A. Romero's living dead films Day of the Dead. Rhodes was the commanding officer of the underground bunker that housed two factions of the living: a small group of scientists who were studying the living dead in hopes of stopping whatever is reanimating them, and a small group of soldiers who were growing despodent and volotile. He is verbally abusive and shows signs of being on the verge of a complete breakdown.

After the commanding officer is killed, Captain Rhodes becomes commanding officer. One of the chief scientists, Dr. Logan, has been conducting experiments on the undead collected from the corral. He has been working with a zombie he has named “Bub” to see how much of his human mind he may have retained. Amazingly, Bub seems to respond to common objects, and even reveals a docile nature instead of simply viewing Logan as "food".

Rhodes, who refers to Logan as "Dr. Frankenstein", is not impressed by his progress, and after he discovers that the doctor has been using his own deceased troops as food for the zombies, he shoots the doctor. Rhodes orders the pilot, John to prepare the helicopter for evacuation, telling him that only the army personnel will be evacuated, and the scientists will be left in the silo to die. John refuses and Rhodes responds by immediately murdering another doctor, by shooting him in the head. John realizes he must obey Rhodes. Two other people are taken to the holding corral and are forced inside with the undead.

Meanwhile, the compound’s main elevator to the surface, deliberately opens by Miguel Salazar and leading the zombies into the complex. The undead easily infiltrate the complex in overwhelming numbers and devour the remaining soldiers. Steel, Rhodes second in command, flees in the bunker along with Rhodes, and kills several zombies, but ends up being bitten, and kills himself. Meanwhile, Rhodes seeks refuge in another room, unaware that Bub has gotten free, and acquired an M1911 pistol. Rhodes flees from Bub, but is shot twice. Rhodes tries to escape via a door, but is ambushed by a group of zombies. Bub shoots Rhodes in the liver. Bub lumbers away, while Rhodes is torn in two at the waist. Using what's left of his oxygen, Rhodes Says "Choke on 'em!" (an adlibbed line by Joseph Pilato) and dies.

Doctor Logan
Doctor Logan (Richard Liberty) is a doctor in the compound, he does weird experiments on the zombies, such as severing all organs from a zombie's body, in which case the zombie's brain alone keeps it alive and active.

Doctor Logan seems to keep an unnaturally cool head despite the situation in the bunker. Early on Doctor Logan manages to keep a logical standpoint even next to the ill-tempered Rhodes. Late in the film Logan appears to be suffering from insanity, begging for acknowledgment from his deceased parents in his notebook.

When Rhodes finds out Logan is feeding the zombies his deceased troops' body parts, Rhodes murders him. Despite not being shot in the head he does not reanimate.

John
John (Terry Alexander) is a character from Georger A. Romero's living dead films. In Day of the Dead, he is a pilot who tries his best to separate himself from the military. Along with William McDermott he establishes a refuge inside a corral.

Miguel Salazar
Miguel Salazar (Antoine Dileo) is a fictional character from George A. Romero's living dead films Day of the Dead. Miguel was an officer of the underground bunker that housed two factions of the living: a small group of scientists who were studying the living dead in hopes of stopping whatever is reanimating them, and a small group of soldiers who were growing despodent and volotile. His lover is called Sarah who is a scientists.

One particular tunnel complex of the underground compound has been used to corral zombies for study by the scientists. During an operation to retrieve a few undead “specimens,” Miguel is bitten. Rhodes, the commanding officer, reluctantly allows Miguel to live after Sarah amputates his wounded arm with a machete, but Miguel lingers on in a feverish, unstable frame of mind.

After Rhodes discovers that one of the three doctors has been using his own deceased troops as food for the zombies, he starts to shoot the doctors and Sarah and another person are taken to the holding corral and are forced inside with the undead. Meanwhile, the wounded and delirious Miguel has become completely unhinged and has made his way to the compound’s main elevator to the surface, deliberately opening the gates and leading the zombies into the complex. The dead advance immediately and kill Miguel. The distraction allows the good to escape.

Rickles
Pvt. Rickles is a fictional character from George A. Romero's Living Dead films. In 'Day of the Dead' he appears to be a raunchily jovial character (His name may even be a reference to insult comic Don Rickles). He also appears to have a friendship with Pvt. Steel.

During the climax of Day of the Dead, Rickles is one of four soldiers still alive to fight through the zombie-infested bunker. He dies wildly laughing while being eaten by zombies.

Sarah
Sarah (Lori Cardille) is a fictional character from George A. Romero's living dead films Day of the Dead. Sarah is a scientist working in underground bunker that housed two factions of the living: a small group of scientists who were studying the living dead in hopes of stopping whatever is reanimating them, and a small group of soldiers who were growing despondent and volotile. Her lover is Miguel Salazar.

Sarah suffers from nightmares and her relationship with Miguel is breaking down due to his stress. She is the only female in the increasingly hostile male environment. Sarah is also a voice of reason as the situation the survivors find them selves in grows increasingly desperate. It is becoming obvious that they could very well be the last survivors in the immediate area, if not the whole country.

One particular tunnel complex of the underground compound has been used to corral zombies for study by the scientists. During an operation to retrieve a few undead “specimens,” Miguel is bitten. Rhodes, the commanding officer, reluctantly allows Miguel to live after Sarah amputates his wounded arm with a machete, but Miguel lingers on in a feverish, unstable frame of mind.

After Rhodes discovers that one of the three doctors has been using his own deceased troops as food for the zombies, he murders Dr. Logan. Taking Dr. Fisher and Sarah hostage, he confronts helicopter pilot John to fly only the soldiers out of the complex. John initially refuses, and Fisher is executed. Sarah and radio operator William McDermott are placed in the corral were they face almost certain death by the undead.

Meanwhile, the wounded and delirious Miguel has become completely unhinged and has made his way to the compound’s main elevator to the surface, deliberately opening the gates and leading the zombies into the complex. The dead advance immediately and kill Miguel. Rhodes has his second in command, the racist Steele, assault John. During their fight, the alarm signal is activated as the elevator brings hordes of zombies into the complex. Steele goes to investigate, and whilst momentarily losing concentration, Rhodes is knocked unconscious by John who then takes Rhodes weapons and goes into the corral where he rescues both William and Sarah.

As the zombies invade the complex, and devour all the soldiers, the 3 civilians climb up to the surface via a missile launch pad. They have very little time to board the helicopter, but they succeed. They land on an apparently deserted island. Their fate remains unknown, but it could be positive.

Steel
Pvt. Steel is a fictional character from George A. Romero's living dead films. In 'Day of the Dead', steel appears to be a friend of Rickles, often tasked with the same duties and laughing at the same things, and furiously threatening Miguel Salazar after a mistake on his part nearly gets Rickles killed. Steel is also a racist, and refers to Miguel Salazar as a "spick".

During the climax of 'Day of the Dead', Steel is one of 4 soldiers left alive to attempt to fight out of the underground bunker. After Rhodes, who abandoned Steel, he manages to get the farthest out of the compound. Steel however makes the mistake of halting in an attempt to kill Bub, and is himself snuck up on and bitten by a zombie. After madly counterattacking and being bitten further, Steel decides to kill himself.

Torrez
Pvt. Torrez is a fictional character from George A. Romero's Living Dead film 'Day of the Dead'. Despite Captain Rhodes' and Pvt. Steel's racist nature, he is seemingly not as affected as Miguel Salazar, obviously due to his being a minor character, and perhaps plot-wise due to his continued value to the military unit in contrast to the mentally degrading Miguel.

In the climax of 'Day of the Dead', Torrez is one of the four soldiers left in Rhodes' military unit to fight through the zombie-infested compound. He is the first to die, dismembered by zombies.

William McDermott
William McDermott (Jarlath Conroy) is a fictional character from George A. Romero’s living dead film Day of the Dead. He is an Irish born middle aged man who is in charge of communications in the underground bunker. He lives in a caravan with his friend John. William is a heavy drinker and enjoys smoking a pipe. He complains his equipment is inadequate, but the military people in charge don’t seem to care. They just want him to get on with his job, stop complaining and lay off the booze.

After Dr. Logan is shot dead, William and Sarah are held hostage by Rhodes and his men. When John refuses to fly the soldiers away, Rhodes has Sarah and William locked into the corral where many zombies lurk. With their situation seemingly hopeless, William takes Sarah further into the scary, dark catacombs.

William and Sarah are eventually joined by John, who has overpowered Rhodes thanks to a distraction that Miguel caused. The three make their way to a missile launch pad. They climb up to the outside world and narrowly escape into the helicopter.

They end up on a deserted island. Though their fate is unknown, it is suggested that maybe they will survive. William is last seen fishing with John while Sarah sits on the sandy dunes and completes a calendar entry.

Bub
Bub (played by Sherman Howard) is a zombie who is from George A. Romero's "Day of the Dead." He demonstrated the most advanced abilities of any zombie from the Romero series of zombie films. Dr. Logan gave him the name 'Bub' after his father's country club nickname. Bub became Dr. Logan's guinea pig and demonstrated several behaviors that other zombie test subjects did not.

He was capable of several emotions, including fear, friendliness, sadness, even empathy and vengeance. When Capt. Rhodes first entered Bub's cell, Bub recognized his army uniform and saluted him. When given an unloaded pistol, he demonstrated from memory that he could operate the slide and then pull the trigger. When prompted, he was able to make an extremely labored attempt at speech. He believed Dr. Logan to be his friend and was quite distraught upon finding his murdered corpse. He was responsible for the death of Capt. Rhodes.

It was proven that Bub was capable of seeing humans as more than just food. Dr. Logan presented Bub with ample opportunities to eat or attack him. Bub once even grabbed Dr. Logan's arm, but decided against biting him and released his hold. Even after shooting Capt. Rhodes he saluted him and walked away with out bothering to join in with the rest of the zombies who began feasting on the remains.

His current status is unknown.

= Land of the Dead =

Riley Denbo
Riley Denbo (Simon Baker) is a fictional character from George A. Romero’s “Land of the Dead”. Denbo is a quiet man, seemingly exhausted by the work he has to do which is scavenging for supplies. Not much is known of his life before the outbreak. He has revealed that his brother was bitten and that he had to shoot him when he revived. He has no known relatives or spouse and has only 1 trusted friend, Charlie.

Denbo works for Kaufman, the wealthy business man who through power and fear, runs “Fiddler’s Green” and the surrounding city in Pittsburgh. Denbo designed, built and was in charge of “Dead Reckoning” – a massive vehicle as long as two city buses that is heavily armed and protected by armour plating that ventures into the now wastelands of Pittsburgh to retrieve essential supplies. Denbo retired from work and was meant to collect a car that would enable him to realise his dream of escaping to Canada and a hopefully zombie free zone. However, Denbo is ripped off and after rescuing “Slack” from a certain death, is imprisoned. However, Denbo’s reckless side-kick Cholo Demora, disgruntled that Kaufman refused to let him live in the exclusive apartment building, steals “Dead Reckoning” and threatens to turn the guns onto the city. Kaufman has Denbo and his friend Charlie and the newly met Slack released so they can try to intercept and re-acquire the Dead Reckoning.

Denbo succeeds in retrieving the vehicle but not before a massive horde of zombies have infiltrated the city. In a desperate race against time, Denbo tries to rescue the wealthy who have poured onto the streets. But he is too late. The people have succumbed. He orders missiles to be fired to destroy the flesh eating zombies and to stop any infected people rising from the dead. However, the poor people of the area have survived. An uprising of the poor has now occurred. Denbo consults renegade leader Mulligan, who gives Denbo the impression that nothing much has really changed. Denbo reboards the Dead Reckoning and heads for Canada. He decides not to destroy any remaining zombies who are now retreating as they are “Looking for a place to go. Like us”. He and his friends fire the last of their “sky flowers” and heads to an uncertain future.

Cholo Demora
Cholo Demora is a fellow survivor and crew captain in Fiddler's Green. Like Riley, Cholo serves Kaufman and helps bring supplies into Fiddler's Green from nearby towns and cities. However, Cholo has shown himself to be self-centered and somewhat of a mercenary for hire. He serves Kauffman out of the false hope that he will pay him extra for performing certain tasks issued by Kauffman (i.e. killing and dumping the bodies of those Kauffman viewed as unfit to live in the Green) and allow him to live in one of the luxurious Fiddler's Green apartments. However, when Kauffman denies these privelages, Cholo becomes enraged. With the help of his crew, steals Dead Reckoning, an armored truck used in the protection of the troops and vows to use the trucks missiles to, "blow Kauffman out of his fuckin' castle!" if he does not pay Cholo's demands.

Kauffman dispatches Riley to do whatever is necessary to ensure the safety of the Green. After finding Cholo, Riley tries to negotiate Cholo's surrender, Cholo refuses. Cholo is then injured by a stray bullet fired by one of Riley's crew. He agrees to surrender Dead Reckoning to Riley but decides not to return to the Green. Instead he and a friend take Riley's car and begin to leave but as they do, Cholo is surprised by a zombie who bites him on the hand, infecting him. After this Cholo returns to the Green to confront Kauffman before he turns into a zombie. After his transformation is complete, the now zombified Cholo finds Kauffman attempting to leave Fiddler's Green in a Limosine. He repeatedly tries to bite Kauffman but Kaufman barely manages to hold Cholo at arms length. As this happens another zombie, uses a lit oil can to ignite spilled gasoline on the parking lot floor and causes Kaufman's limosine to explode killing both him and Cholo for good.

Big Daddy
Big Daddy was the "leader" of the zombie horde that attacked Fiddler's Green. He is a black man wearing coveralls, and appears to have died of natural causes, as there is no visible sign of injury. He is also rather intelligent, and views his fellow zombies with empathy, even going so far as to push them down out of the line of fire, and on separate occasions "killing" zombies who have been decapitated or set aflame, out of mercy. He carries an assault rifle he grabs off of a passing motorist during the raid at the beginning of the movie, which he gradually learns to use; he even teaches another zombie to use it as well. His actions over the course of the film show that the intelligence exhibited by Bub in Day of The Dead has begun to affect other zombies as well, from minor details such as more and more zombies carrying weapons, to Big Daddy's leading and directing the zombie horde to attack Fiddler's Green. Unlike other zombies, Big Daddy apparently has no desire to feed on flesh, probably having suppressed this impulse with his developing intelligence. During the climax of the film, he locates Kauffman attempting to escape via limo, and begins pouring gasoline into the smashed windshield of the limo. As Kauffman is attacked by a zombified Cholo, he rolls a flaming canister down towards the limo, killing Kauffman. During the final scenes of the film, Big Daddy is shown one final time, still leading his "family" of zombies to wherever they may wander.

Number 9 is a young female cheerleader, about in her 20's that was bitten, and reanimated as a Zombie. Her most outstanding feature is the terrible flesh wound on the side of her face.
