Old Skool Zombies.

I saw the remake of dotd at the cinema, so when i heard there was a unrated cut i could nt wait to see it. I enjoyed dotd but where was the gore? I was expecting to see limbs getting torn off & eaten & entrails flying across the screen. The unrated cut had nothing no bite scenes & very little extra glop. You can say you don't need gore to make a good horror film. Some of my favourite films Ringu & the Shining don't have any. But in a proper Zombie film the glop has to run in rivers.
Theres only two rules in a Zombie film, the Zombies eat the humans & you have to shoot them in the head to kill them. Why is every Zombie film ignoring rule number 1? I just want to see a film like Lucio or George used to make not skinny bitch super models kick boxing zombies. Does any one else?
I just hope that George gets to make the film he wants & a year or so later i can watch a kickass unrated cut of LOTD.

Gore isn't PC anymore......It might offend someone....There's no room for it in modern cinema, unless it's in a war movie........But you have to balance that out with a ludicrous love underplot......

i peronaly dont like the gore

its kinda like 6 flags. ok all kinds rides, sitting, stnading, legs dangling. some go in circles, some upside down, some swerve

but in the end, its all like the same shit just twirked. once u ride one uve ridden em all

at least to me that place was a bit boring. i prefer disneyland just cuz theres actual scenery and a story to follow in the rides

and is space mountain not KICK ASS like HOLY FUCKIN SHIT IM GONNA GET SUCKED IN BY THE NEBULA!!!!!!

anyway.. thats my take on gore. starts lookin the same after a while. do too much and its no longer shocking.

this is pretty much it ... its the times.
We're in a place in society now where too much is happening in the real world to make gore appealing in the theatres (to most people) unless like you said .. it serves a point to heighten the realism in a serious film.

Gratuitous explicit violence isnt in vogue right now.
Todays news has kind of let the wind out of that sail anyway.
you'll see worse online or on the news than in a horror movie these days.

but dont worry .. i guarentee it will return. all things happen in cycles. One daring filmmaker will eventually do it, and others will follow suit.
We may have to wait for Romero's Land of the Dead ... i cant see him going soft on the gore .. it made him who he is today.

Im not asking for japanese Guinea Pig style glop just a few chomping scenes. Did'nt George walk out on Resident Evil because he could see they were trying to make a kids film? Unfortunatly its the suits that rule Hollywood the soulless bastards.

Also its ok to see Jesus beaten to shit because its artistic
Passion of christ, the most violent mainstream film ive seen in years.

Entertainment isn't entertainment anymore....at least not in the classic sense......We are told to be entertained by what will make the big-wigs the most money......For example, "Reality" TV......I can stand it, but there's MILLIONS of people who do.........What's sad is you can watch some idiot on fear factor eat a pigs ass, but you can't show simulated gore/violence......It's a sad time that we live in.....People said the 80's sucked, but damn, there was some cool entertainment.....and it wasn't the music :D
