Looks like shit. Romero must stop making this crap.

Cool, I wanted to see another shaky cam zombie film, but not from Romero.

Agreed, but Romero's Land of the Dead was shitty.

Aye. So, so shitty :/

 

[Lucid]

Aw, Land of the Dead was a fun movie.
Cheesy as a ****-all but fun.

But as of this moment I am sick to death of zombie movies.

MAKE TWILIGHT ALREADY, GODDAMN IT!

*sigh*, I am sorry George, but you're such a one trick pony.

I've already read the diary of the dead, thanks.

Fever gone but itchy. Hungry and eat doggy food. Itchy. Itchy. Scott came. Ugly face so killed him. Tasty.

4. Itchy. Tasty.

Land of the Dead sucked, looks like this will too.

A shame, as I love zombie films and there hasn't been anything good out for the past 3 years.

28 Weeks Later.

 

[MJ12]

28 Weeks Later.

It was alright. The advertisement propaganda was better than the actual film.

 

[Narvi]

I would have liked 28 Weeks Later better if all the characters hadn't acted like complete retards in the second half of the film.

I love you for posting that.

I personally will never mind another zombie movie, because no matter how abominably shitty they are they still have zombies, zombies getting pwned, and people getting pwned by zombies.

I want a serious Giant Robot film.

It'd be like Cloverfield, with shaky cam and New York yuppies scared out of their wits, and we'd have shaky cam footage of the military trying to stop Voltron, but Voltron would from GIANT BRAZING SWORD and utterly moidorize them, in the name of GUTS and JUSTICE, as he tries to defeat the Moonions from Mars!

And it'd end with a poignant moment between the two yuppie survivors as they hold hands before they die from the shockwave of GIANT BRAZING SWORD impacting the Mooniogre's SHADOW HEART HAMMER.

And then those two bastards came out of that closet.

Bloody trap.

This looks like crap and considering how bad land of the dead was I probably won't see it.

 

[stemot]

I think it looks good, I enjoyed Land Of The Dead as well, so i`m up for this.

Also, I know IMDB reviews are not the be all and end all, but this has got a few positive reviews so far.

 

[Cavalry]

Watching some movie review show this morning, the people said it had "High School acting" and "zombies you see in millions of zombie films."

Seen this now, enjoyed it as I knew I would, this time George has kept the whole movie quite low key, from the set pieces to the release.
Some of the kills in this were brilliant, as well as the cgi, which was not overdone at all.

I guess most people will hate it though because again, like Land, it is a deviation from the tried and tested formula of the first 3 dead films, in that this one is seen in the style of an amateur documentary whereas Land had the evolution of the zombies. It seems everytime Goerge tries a different spin in one of his movies, it's instantly disliked.
