Diane Ruth Director Jim Broadstreet has blown new life into the zombie film with this original and truly inspired horror film. Placing the original action in a mortuary is nothing less than brilliant and intensifies the terror exponentially. The special effects and make-up work are extraordinary and the technicians responsible have broken new ground for the genre. While the blood and gore can be overwhelming at times, it never is used gratuitously but is a legitimately shocking plot furtherance. At times, the breathtaking horror can be overwhelming and simply too much to endure but this remains one of the finest zombie films produced since Romero's original masterpiece.

nybor79 Honestly I'm a little surprised this movie has gotten so many negative reviews. It's not a blockbuster and I don't believe it was intended to be. If you are a watcher of B horror then I think there's a decent chance you might enjoy this flick. True, if you are expecting a lot of action, you may be disappointed, however, I have seen a lot worse in the way of zombie horror. The zombies are pretty repulsive as one would hope, and the characters are identifiable. The lead character is a creepy John Waters/Vincent Price type with whom you almost empathize between his affection for family yet you cautiously fear for his possible instability. There is a definite element of dark humor but more pervasive is the hope that the plot will build to something exciting which it sort of fails to do. Not all zombie movies are meant to satisfy in the same way. Personally, I do not regret the hour and a half I spent watching this story about a mysterious mortician and his experience with the living dead.

Allan Jensen I had heard much good about this movie; little was I aware that it was for the original. The new iteration of it is so poorly done; the acting is horrible, the story is drawn out way beyond reason, the special effects could have been done by elementary school children and overall it's 84 minutes of my life I could have spent better and far more enjoyable on painfully plucking my facial hair, DIY dental work or basically just about anything else. Matter of fact, I created an account on IMDb for one purpose - to write this review. You may ask why I gave the movie 2 stars? Well, the story in and of itself is good. It's just playing it out that just does not work. Steer clear!

trashgang With a title like this what could probably go wrong? And with two horror icons as main lead what can go wrong? What a great title, Night Of The Living Dead surely will attract horror and zombie geeks. And face it, Re-animator also is a big teaser. This is great.Sadly the title is the only thing that is great. The acting by Andrew Divoff (Wishmaster) and Jeffrey Combs (Re-animator) was for me okay but the script itself had nothing to offer. There are here and there a few killings that are nice to see like the bashing of a head but most of the effects are pure cheap CGI. Just see for example one zombie being hit with acid, how stupid that CGI effect was. But it is really the story itself, there's too much of talking and there isn't anything happening. The zombies itself did look great in the beginning and looked gory and nasty but once the horde comes alive in the cellar it's as stupid as it good be. No effects or make-up. They did add some funny notes towards the geeks with referring to the Pittsburg outbreak in 1968 and the Romero zombies in the cellar.On the other hand the scene were they are tripping do offers some necrophilia by Dyeanne (Robin Sydney) but again it is really a let down. I knew Robin from Wicked Lake (2008) and there she shows that she isn't afraid to show some flesh but here it's just a underwear girl sitting a top a zombie. Jeff Broadstreet, the director, should have known better with already one NOTLD remake on his list, the 3D flop with Sid Haig. It is really weird with those two icons that they couldn't save this terrible flick, even familiar faces like Sarah Lieving (Cristie Forest) and Robin Sydney couldn't add anything towards this turkey. Still, it will sell due the icons and due the title but be warned that when you see Jeff's name on the list to leave it as it is. This is a perfect example how a title can sell a bad flick.Gore 2/5 Nudity 0/5 Effects 2/5 Story 2/5 Comedy 0/5
