Rating: 2.0
Give me the original
My first real taste of "The Living Dead" series was with Dawn of The Dead which I absolutley loved. This sparked my intrest into zombie movies and horror movies in general so when I spotted the remake of Night of The Living Dead I decided to pick it up. At first watch I thought it was alright (it was partly in denial, and the fact I had never seen the original). So then a friend bought me the original and I watched that and I absolutley loved it. So then it brought me back to the remake and upon a second viewing I realized how crappy this remake is.I found it funny how much worse the acting was in the remake than in the original. I mean I figured that a movie made in 1990 could at least be at the same acting as a movie made in 1968 but the remake gets totally blown out of the water. I mean the characters in the remake are so blown out of proportion(Tony Todd does a good job but that's about it). They overdramatized the drama and the tension to such a ridiculous degree. I mean between Cooper spouting off overly angry stale dialogue(where did they get the term yo yo's and why did they have to use like five times in a row, I figured it might have been a term from the 60's but it's not even in the original), and Judy Rose going into hysterics every time a zombie hits a door I felt my head was about to explode.So I do not reccomend this movie at all, not just because I didn't enjoy that much but for the fact that if you want to watch a good version of this movie just pick up the original.
