Well it isn’t if you are reading this… Maybe you shouldn’t

Here we go again, I think half the time they’re trying to make people sick in the theatres with the shaky camera. No, wait, I’m not complaining, I liked this. A lot. It really works very well, and for this type of film, the characters are pretty good too. And thank God there aren’t any big names there either. Not that I know of anyway. Exciting marketing, boring posters. The whole secrecy thing was interesting. I didn’t know anything at all when I went to see this one, I don’t think I’d even really seen the poster. That’s the best way to see a film I think. So you should stop reading and go and watch this now. But as usual, I’m not really going to tell much of the film. Well acted, good cast, I like the genre as well and I think it was well done, which can’t be said of most similar attempts lately. Scary? Yes, I guess. I’m not surre I’d watch it again. And cinema always beats dvd (or blu-ray which I don’t have). I wonder if there’ll be a sequel?

If this is as good as it gets, then maybe its time for George to find a nice cosy (zombi) island where to retire. I had high hopes of Diary of the Dead.

Or is it just me? Go and have a look and see what you think. Oh wait – This is how interesting I found the film: I’m writing this about a year after I watched it in the cinema – for you its same as me reviewing a straight to DVD release. I’m not sure its good enough to even rent. All Romero fans, stop reading and just go and watch it. You might even like it. I’m just saying its nowhere near as good as Day of the Dead or Dawn of the Dead. or obviously Night of the Living Dead. Or the new versions of Dawn of the Dead or Night of the Living Dead. This one is mostly annoying and misses almost all chances of being properly scary, funny or otherwise good. There is a second or two that are very very funny, but it’s not really enough to carry the whole film.
