Review of The Crazies (1973) by Joshua B — 14 Dec 2009
The first movie from Romero I go to after his dead films. It's a little weaker effort, but his social commentary is on full force here. The only thing I can see people complain about is it's leisurely pacing.
I like it. Once again, the event taking place isn't the main focus. Sure there is a virus outbreak and people are crazy, but the military are just shooting people, and robbing them. They are just as bad.
It's a hard movie to explain, but if you know Romero, then you know how his films are.
