Return of the Living Dead Part II is an American zombie horror comedy film that was released in 1988. It was written and directed by Ken Wiederhorn. The film was released by Lorimar Motion Pictures on January 15, 1988, and was a minor box office success, making $9 million at the box office in the United States against its $6 million budget. It is the first of four sequels. Though this film and its predecessor shared the same rating ("R"), this film had a lighter tone; however the misleading trailer suggested it was darker.
The plot follows seven people as they attempt to escape their zombie-filled city. A large number of corpses are reanimated by a barrel of Trioxin gas that had fallen off of a truck transporting it to another location. The barrel is opened by one local teenager who finds the barrel infecting him in the process. In this film it's revealed that the only thing which truly stops the zombies, without the risk of reanimating more corpses, is powerful electric discharge. The electric discharge can stop the reanimating effect created by Trioxin without generating Trioxin fumes the way cremation can. The human leads of the film lure the zombies to an electrical station
