Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaDirector Jeff Broadstreet wrote the Gerald Tovar, Jr. part specifically for Sid Haig. He didn't let him in on this fact until after filming wrapped.
- GoofsWhen Sid Haig's character enters Henry's house, Henry appears to be fine, despite just being bitten by his daughter. In the very next shot he has bandages over his neck which were not in the shot before.
- Quotes
Henry Cooper: This is not happening. These are not fucking walking corpses.
Ben: Hey man, this is fucking happening.
Barb: Call the freaking cops.
Hellie Cooper: We have to baby.
Henry Cooper: Yeah, call the cops. When the dead walk, you gotta call the cops.
- Crazy creditsThe background for the end credits is the same b&w version of the road from the original Night of the Living Dead that is shown at the beginning. Except that as the credits are rolling to an end, what seems to be the first zombie from the original appears, getting closer and closer to the foreground. At the very last instant, an image of the present film's heroine, looking scared, flashes on screen in the foreground.

This movie IS a "remake" true, but the effects were so ill done, that except for times the actors were using something like a cellphone in a scene, you could have sworn this was made at the same time as the original. Which, seriously is not necessarily THAT bad, but really, come on... The "3D" could have been way more effectively utilized as well. Truly, if you KNOW you are making it 3D, you could do way cooler, and way more terrifying things than, "Ooh look! A Doobie!". *sigh*
But the "horrifying" zombies were the absolute least of this thing's problems. Oh yes, I AM speaking of the acting. Let me just first say, I think I lost about one IQ point per minute (maybe second) of watching these people try to act. Now, that's not that I'm saying that I thought this was supposed to be an Oscar worthy film. When I walked in, I knew I wasn't going to be enlightened. But dang! The crappy delivery of the "witty" lines that the script offered was the only thing in the whole movie that was worthy enough to make me gasp in horror. COME ON PEOPLE!! Absolutely everyone watching has fairly low expectations of you and yet you decide your mission in life is to lower them even further?!?! There was not ONE person in the entire cast (including the lead actress) that you could EVER feel for enough to root for THEM against the zombies. I myself, was cheering for the zombies. If they could have eaten everyone in the first 15 minutes, THAT would have been worthwhile.
I'm not going to say more because no more is needed. It was bad and that is it.
You can hate the review, or agree with everything. I don't truly care. I just wrote this because I needed somewhere to vent. I had already used up my boyfriend, who by the way agrees with me.
