I tried to watch the movie some nights ago and had to turn it off, because it TOTALLY SUCKED!!!!!! I love Romero's work and this was by far my biggest disappointment this year. I don't understand how anyone could enjoy that piece of crap.
***spoilers***
That first part when the girl explains to us that she's added sound effects to the "documentary" to scare us is a damn bad excuse for what we're about to see. It's like "oh this is real footage, the sound effects are just to make it a bit better". PUHLEASE! Maybe I'm being silly, but that explanation got on my nerves.
Besides, the acting is terrible, for instance, that blonde girl was so in love with her Thorson in the beginning and when he dies she's like "ok, let's move on." And all the other actor's performances are also... arghhh! Annoying!
****end spoilers***
The deaths were funny, but far from believable. That's probably what ruined it for me: a movie that's supposed to depict real facts but is miles away from a believable experience. Oh well, I just hated the 40 minutes I saw of it and couldn't bring myself to watch the rest yet. You think I should?
