I saw this movie opening day with my girlfriend, and i learned something about George A. Romero in the movie's playing time.
1. Even directors who previously put out legendary films of greatness which i enjoy thuroughly can still make a piece of crap movie with the right cast and ideas.
2. Die Hard fans of the Dead series will praise Romero for pissing his name in the snow, let alone releasing a new zombie movie no matter how bad it is.
3. Die Hard fans will also deny any fault you point out in a movie no matter how serious or obvious it is.
I didn't think this movie was all bad, but com'mon now...
"I thought this was going to be a fight.... but this is a massacre..."
At this point i knew that i had paid too much to see this movie. The main guy, whatever his name was... he was a terrible actor. The fact that they were sympathizing with zombies was okay at first and then i thought:
"Hey... those things are trying to eat you... it's maybe okay to kill them. You know, so you don't end up food."
Terrible, terrible. I can't help but wonder what was going through Romero's mind when i made this.
One thing i did like though, was the Pourtorican guy comming back as a zombie on the (can't remember his name) older gentlemen that ran the big building in the center of the city. That was cool and it reminded me of Ninja Turtles for some reason. I don't know.
I really did try to like this movie. I want to like this movie, but i can't. It's got too many points against it. Maybe i'll see it again someday and really love it, but i doubt it. I give it a 5 out of 10.
