Review of Diary of the Dead (2007) by Matt C — 05 Dec 2014
Yes you need to suspend some disbelief and accept that in all these types of films you're going to have to just get over the idea that anyone would carry on filming. For a solid hour of this films it works, and actually pretty well.
It's not Romero's best but like the other entries in his zombie canon it's a film of it's time and it does examine some interesting ideas about the proliferation of media in society. Plus there's a laugh out loud gag with a deaf Amish farmer exploding some zombies.
..what's not to like? Update... Wow I was generous when I first watched this, found it dull beyond belief second time around!
