day of the dead remake [zombiecentric]

soapy [Edit] [Delete] 4 replies 18:28, 7 February '07

the trailer makes it look like utter shit
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ObYs3q4ix2o
the original is my favourite george romero film so i guess i was always gonna be a bit disappointed by this but it really does look bad. seems to suggest they've taken the plot of the crazies (another old romero film) and filled it with zombies. bleeugh. if it doesn't even have the same plot as the original then why even bother associating this with it?

in other news, romero himself has another zombie film out this year that sounds quite interesting

  • no idea whose directing the remake

    but it stars ving rhames as capt.rhodes. unfortunately i think they've made him into a good guy, rubbish. i bet he just ends up being almost the same as he was in the dawn remake, but in camo instead of black.

    the romero films called Diary Of The Dead. it might include a section of video blogging (possibly a rubbish thing) but otherwise sounds like a cross between blair witch and a zombie film (probably a good thing)

  • basically

    the rights to the title were bought really cheaply by a bunch of incompetents, and it'll be arse.

    • i think the rights have been on the go for awhile now

      hence that "sequel" that shitbug tried to pass off as watchable entertainment
