Review of Survival of the Dead (2010) by Daved — 10 Jun 2010
Being a life long George Romero Zombie movie fanatic (I Watched the original Night of the Living Dead in 1968 at the age of 9 and every Romero "...of the Dead" movie since), I was excited when I read that his latest movie was going to be released on May 28th 2010.
I was even more excited when I learned that Direct TV Channel HDNET Movies was going to show a free sneak preview of "Survival of the Dead" on Wednesday May 26th for (with subscription) 2 days before the movie opens in the theaters.
There I sat in my living room, watching George A. Romero's Survival of the Dead for free and after the movie finished I wanted my money back. What a horrible movie it is. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY IN THE THEATERS WATCHING THIS STINK BOMB OF A MOVIE.
My exciteness evaporated within the first 15 mintues of this movie. This turned out to be the WORST George Romero movie ever. It was not scary. the gore factor eventhough plentiful was phony looking. the acting HORRENDOUS, the zombies FX so cheesy(Dab some gray makeup on your cheeks and face and there you have the zombie f/x for this movie).
The script so lame that I wished I was somewhere else but I had to watch it to the end to see if it was going to get better, well guess what IT DIDN'T. The last scene was so stupid, I am at a loss for words.
George A. Romero should retire. Well the only consolation I have is that I copied all his Great movies "Night, Dawn, Day of the Dead"onto my Zune player to enjoy, For certain Survival of the Dead will not be added to my Zune collection.
