Review of Diary of the Dead (2007) by Dirigiblepulp — 05 Jun 2018
I don't remember thinking this was especially novel when it came out, although I did have cheap fun with it. Watching it now I had almost the complete opposite experience. Romero was clearly on to something here, and somehow even ahead of the time (to think the iPhone wasn't even out yet and Facebook nowhere near popular) but instead of the subtle social satire lying under the surface a great zombie movie, Diary is a one-note in your face social commentary movie with fine zombie action, basic plotting and mostly boring characters and dialogue.
