More fun than scary

Rating: 9/10 (18 February 2009)

Okay, so I'm not exactly a pro and this is my first "review" of a movie - really, how entertaining I as the average amateur found the movie.
I'll start out with saying that I never saw the original movie (though I'd heard of it) so I didn't know what to expect - the gist of my reaction: Surprise. This movie was actually really entertaining in the funny sense - I don't think I've laughed quite this much during any other movie.
Now, I don't know much about direction or lighting (I'm not even that good at spotting bad acting - if I can see people are bad actors then they are BAD) so I don't have much to say. Overall, the lighting is pretty light most of the time especially for a horror flick but I think that helped add to the "realism" - "What would really happen and how would people really react if zombies were suddenly real?".
The - though meager - extra material was neat too - pretty entertaining. Overall a fun movie and recommendable for a night in - only 8 out of 10 though seeing as it wasn't as scary as it was funny.
