Day of the Dead (DVD) – A mysterious virus gets out in a small Colorado town and starts to change normal people into crazy flesh-eating zombies! And it’s up to a few survivors to stop the madness! Oh, where to start? Honestly, I tried giving this movie a chance. I read the articles on the internet, in the major horror mags, and listen to the podcasts all about the movie and how director Steve Miner and writer Jeffery Reddick tried to explain that this movie isn’t a remake of the original Romero film or it wasn’t a sequel to the remake of “Dawn” or they weren’t trying to have any resemblance to any characters of the original “Day” in the fact they are trying something different with the zombie genre with it being a virus. All I can say is save it and save your money folks, as I witness the carnage and wonder if there was a point to the film at all? Now first off, let’s take it from just being a zombie film… It’s not bad as it has its moments of gore and spurting blood but when did it happen that zombies can crawl up and down walls and ceilings, jump cars in a single bound, and seem to have super speed of the “Flash”. Are the zombies Superman, Spiderman, or they just trying out for the next X-men film? Personally, if they didn’t have a budget or any named actors in it I would be willing to go with it and give some space especially if it’s a ‘Sci-fi Channel movie of the week’. Next, it’s a virus that begins all of this… Miner and Reddick were you literally living under a rock the last few years with titles such as “Resident Evil” and “28 Days Later” being the main titles to name but that’s ok, I’ll give you that one. But if you are going to do something similar to something that has been played out recently give horror fans something different than the usual paint by numbers horror film? But I’m moving on, but what bothered me more than anything of not just being a horror fan but a Romero fan especially after reading about them defending the movie saying this is so much different than the original “Day”. If so, why is there a Capt. Rhodes character or Bud zombie that acts a lot like the Bub zombie from the original “Day” or that the movie has the military involved? The movie is not horrible by zombie film standards in my mind, but not great either because of its shitty CG effects. I would give the movie 2 or 2 ½ stars if it was called something else… But Steve… Jeffrey… you know and I know this was a remake. For the love of fucking god it says on the fucking cover of the god dam DVD, “Based on the motion picture ‘Day of the Dead’ by George A. Romero”. The least you could have done so there would not as much backlash from me or other critics is at least not to lie to our faces about it! What it’s not a remake because it has Hollywood types Mena Suvari, Ving Rhames, and Nick Cannon starring in it? That a horror fan like myself is suppose to forget past Romero films think this has nothing to do with it because this was by Hollywood and had a budget? Fuck that shit! When in the fuck are you stupid Hollywood fuckers gonna learn sometimes it’s not worth taking it just for the job? Ask James Gunn… Hell, if this was so different why didn’t this film go to theaters like the “Dawn” remake or did somebody know that the backlash would be bad and knew if you just throw it out there on DVD there be enough dumb asses (dumb horror fans) out there to buy the fucking DVD at Best Buy?! This “Day” can go suck my fucking white hairy cock because it is truly a piece of shit and again it’s a shame that Romero’s name was anywhere near this as I give it 0 stars. Now I know I said I would give it 2 stars but it’s a remake of a 4 star film that didn’t need to be remade, let alone have a half ass revision of the original so I give it 0! If the dumb asses out there are interested in the DVD there is a commentary and an alternate ending on the DVD.
