I think the Crazies is ok but it has aged badly.
Chainsaw 3, I have a softspot for Leatherface so a bit biased on this one. The film has some good characters in but the ending that got tagged on by the studio as they didn't like the original Jeff Burr ending sucks. If you get it get the unrated US version which at least has the original ending on as an extra. Also dig that shiny chainsaw!!
Night of the Living Dead remake not so impressive. It does have Bill Mosely in (Ottis from 1000 Corpses and Devils Rejects) and of course was directed by Mr Savini, but it is a bit of a let down.

I never did get a change to see "The Crazies". Sometimes that happens with older movies, it tends to be 'out dated'. Reminds me of the scene in "DC Cab" when Gary Busey was showing his 'beefed up car stereo'. lol@the lines:
His cab was shaking and he says "
200 watts! 6 speakers! With a power booster! Now watch this!" cranks the radio and the glass shatters. What makes it out dated is the fact that today's factory equipment comes standard with 6 and sometimes even 8 speakers with 400 to 500 watts. :)
Didn't care for "Strangeland". I liked "Return Of The Living Dead 3" for the fact they actually made it more of a serious movie, but some of the special effects went too over-the-top like 'River Man' and that gang banger with the crazy 'snake neck'. I did like the "Night Of The Living Dead" remake with the cool special effects, although it didn't have the dark, creepy, atmosphereic tones the original had.
