CULT MOVIE REVIEW: George A. Romero's Diary of the Dead (2007)

2008-06-08 09:05:00 by John Kenneth Muir in John Kenneth Muir's Reflections on Film/TV
 
...Dead with a note about my enduring fondness and critical admiration for George A. Romero, his impressive career, and his remarkable films. What else can be said or written of Romero's tour-de-force , Night of the Living Dead (1968), which hasn't already been said or written? In broad strokes, it forcefully re-arranged the face of modern...

...Dead took some time to get the love it deserved (and even then it has remained a black sheep amongst its brethren) a scenario not uncommon to works of art that tell people what they simultaneously need to know and want not to hear. The film was and to a large extent, remains a victim of its own implicit place in film history; like the...

...Dead when it premiered back in June of 05. With a shared fevered excitement, my friend David and I went to it opening night and we were both fairly blown away by it. In that first viewing with a packed house, Romeros film seemed to work as both a great zombie film and a concise social commentary on post 9/11 America After that initial viewing...

2008-03-26 03:20:24 by Editor in B-MOVIE NEWS, REVIEWS, AND OTHER ASSORTED WEIRDNESS FROM THE FOYWONDER
...DEAD . This is will be a short review. That's because there's simply little to say about this wretched film that only further reminded me how tiresome zombie flicks have become. Anyone who disliked Zach Snyder's DAWN OF THE DEAD remake ought to be forced to watch the asinine teeny bopper splatterfest Steve Miner cooked up for his DAY OF THE...

...Dead (1945) Director: Mark Robson By Roderick Heath Val Lewtons series of RKO Horror films concluded with a triptych of features starring Boris Karloff: Isle of the Dead, The Body Snatcher , and Bedlam . Lewton was initially far from happy about having Karloff, the top star of the goosebump genre, forced upon him by studio executives, who...

...DEAD was released in 2000 to a few empty theaters and a mixed critical reception. The film, taken from Scott Spencers novel from the early eighties, has touched many people since including myself and is turning out to be one of the slow burning great films of the decade. Several things make this film valuable, not the least is Gordons...

2008-02-18 20:06:19 by Sam in Slice of SciFi
...Dead is awesome There are just some flavors you never tire of, and the savory combination of George Romero and the rotting flesh of zombies is one of them. Expanding upon the genre he created, Romeros latest zombie epic, Diary of the Dead, takes a more personal look at the widespread outbreak of the undead, but fails to capture the viewers...

2006-02-07 04:20:00 by Brent in Movies For Breakfast
...dead two is a remake of evil dead one, a sequel, or a remake and sequel in one There are many arguments for each of these ideas but Im going to throw my opinion in and say that while it is different than the first movie it does not reference it in any way, in other words you do not have to see The Evil Dead one before Evil Dead II Ok now that...

...Dead series. Yup, instead of staying at home and feeling like Ive had my heart ripped out, I opted to go the movies to hopefully see characters get their hearts ripped out.literally. Since the film was filmed in Toronto, the audience was lucky to see some of the main actors of the film who came out to support it. Ive been very excited to see...
