Two remakes for the same film, each watering down the elements that made the original a master piece for a cheap knockoff.The original night of the living dead even plays on screen at certain points in the film to show how far along we are in each and adds humor by making a potheads believe a curse is upon them for watching this flick. I kid you not.Todd Farmer being the one dimensional character he portrayed as everyone else decided to do his own version and did nothing to improve on the other two in anyway.Bland atmosphere, dumb characters, an implausible reason for the dead to rise and an anticlimactic ending that doesn't leave any impact or make you think. Zoey sneaking out of the house to ease drop only to get attacked and the new Tom & Judy trying to drive away only to hit the has exploding when they easily could've avoided It.It doesn't follow any rhyme or reason like the characters having the same names from the movie, Johnny texting I'm coming to get you Barbara as a zombie or how the undertaker was able to keep his creations understand for so long.Even the special effects looks much worse with the zombies looking like regular humans with rabies.If you hadn't heard of it before there's a reason for that. It belongs buried in the five dollar bin at Wal- Mart.
When I saw John Russo's raping of Night of the Living dead, laughingly released as the 30th Anniversary edition, I sat back, shook my head, took the VHS out of my machine and tossed it in a corner thinking, "No one can possibly screw up what is a classic film ever again." Wow, was I wrong. I saw this horrendous abortion of a film in 2-D, since it was released to a movie theater within 500 miles of where I live. Luckily for any theater, since I would certainly have demanded my money back. This was a horrid, terrible, stupid movie. How can anyone sit around and go "Yeah, we made a winner here." This, along with Dawn of the Dead 2: Contagium and Day of the Dead (2008), should all be taken, piled up and burned, the better that no one ever remembers them ever. They should be erased from the collective memory of humanity, yes they are that bad. Acting, bad. Story (Laughable) Bad. SFX. Bad. Even the momentary nudity from an obviously enhanced woman was bad. Just do yourself a favor. Watch the original or the 1990 remake and avoid all this garbage. Your brain will thank you.
This movie was absolutely terrible. Bad acting, bad special effects, ridiculous uninspired writing, truly an insult to legacy of Romero in every way.Not much more to be said, an embarrassing effort not even worthy of scifi channel status.Do yourself a favor and pass this weak effort by. I diddn't even want to finish it, but I did and I can honestly say it never gets any better.The only way to make this enjoyable would be to give it the Mystery Science Theater treatment, then it would be tolerable. No one in this movie was even slightly believable and had the combined acting depth of a puddle, INCLUDING their poster boy.
Wow and I heard the movie was bad before I finally saw it. I remember back in 6th grade when I heard this movie was coming out I was so excited to see it! I thought it was gonna get a theatrical release. But I was wrong only a limited theatrical release. But on with my review. I finally saw this movie on demand and I thought it was horrible. I should have listened to all the fans who said this movie sucked. The acting was bad. No really I've seen better acting in a porn movie then this! And the special effects were god awful! No really I've seen better special effects in a home movie filmed by a 2 year old! I mean the special effects looked so fake! I was highly let down. And it hardly remakes the original! So whats the point to remake it then? the dialogue was unbelievably cheesy! No really I've heard better dialogue from a drunk guy then from this movie! This is one of the worst movies I have ever seen. What were you thinking Sid Haig? Why were you in this god awful mess of a movie?! This movie is just as bad as Halloween 3: Season of the witch and the sinfully bad Jaws: The Revenge!
