Review: Worth catching in a theater

Rating: Null/10 (22 March 2004)

First of all, before you spend your hard earned 8 bucks, if your looking for a film that will win any awards or touch you in a spiritual way, stay home. But if your looking to see a good zombie flick with plenty of thrills and gore, you should definately check it out.
As with any remake you will have the usual critics that will tear the movie down just because its a remake, wheither its good or not. Dont let them make up your mind for you.
The basic plot of DOTD remains the same though there are many changes to the storyline which are always welcome. The use of gore, I think was almost perfect. Not too much, and it was in very realistic ways. Also, the humor was kept to a minimum. There are a couple of one liners that could have been left out but not enough to pay attention to.
The ending was left wide open for a sequal, which I would welcome if done in the same style by the same director.
To sum it up this was the BEST zombie flick I have seen. If you enjoy a good horror flick, check it out. You wont be disappointed.
