Mini DVD Review: Land of the Dead

Amazon skinny: Twenty years after last addressing issues of the flesh in Day of the Dead -- not to mention countless imitations and a pair of remakes later -- the filmmaker who first brought the dead back to torment the living returns with a belated fourth entry into the legendary Dead Series. While for some die-hard fans this lean and fast-paced installment may not convey the epic sense of dread and desperation that elevated previous entries to classic status, George A. Romero's latest entry is a thinking man's gut-muncher that is clearly the work of a filmmaker with much on his mind -- and the courage to let his rotting flesh-eaters sink their teeth into larger issues often too tender to be approached in a straightforward manner.

My two cents: Zombie movies rule. I dunno why i've been into undead flicks lately... maybe it's all this time spend preparing training, i feel like a zombie myself. George Romero is back from the dead after many years away from films with a new post Apocalyptic Zombie flick: Land of the Dead. My undead appreciation of this Zombie flick: Very good chill. Not as cool as Dawn of the Dead but very dead nonetheless.

Uncle George has not lost it. he knows how to make these and you can tell he had lots of fun making this one. memorable dead moments: the cameo appearance from the two young film makers who made Shaun of The Dead, The rise of the dead from the river and all around performance y the black gas attendent zombie.

Final rating: 7/10
