I'm reading the book 'The Making Of Day Of The Dead', and in it they mention the filming location of The Wampum Caves, later known as the Wampum Industrial Facility. Well, the facility is just like the film. A huge 2 million square feet underground storage area where everything and anything is stored. In the film it is mentioned that stored down there are "the negatives of all your favorite movies". Well, the book mentions that the negatives of the Star Wars films were stored down there. With so much stuff stored down there I wonder if the originals are still there !

I've read that book and wondered those thoughts myself.
But I remember reading somewhere that there was some kind of accident (Flood? Fire? I can't remember) sometime in the 1990's that destroyed most of what was stored down there. I did a quick Google and didn't find anything, so maybe I'm wrong.

I can't find anything either.The website FAQ talks about cave in checks but nothing in the history. http://wampumunderground.com/about-us/our-history/

[Page Avjet became the sole owner in 1980, rebranding the mine as the Wampum Industrial Facility. Through the years, space has been used in a variety of ways: from a storage facility for equipment, metal alloys, vehicles, and food products to a secure records storage facility with humidity and temperature controlled vaults for vital records, film (Star Wars Trilogy along with other classics), microfilm and computer tapes, to a film location for movies including the 1985 cult classic Day of the Dead by George Romero.]
