I love a good Romero ZOmbie flic, although Dawn and Night are far superior to Day, but its fun, none-the-less... Who else is a zombie fanatic?! (besides Hudson :P )
 
Re: Watching Day of the Dead

You rang? I love them all. I used to share your opinion of Day when compared to Night and Dawn, but now I find myself liking Day a great deal. Maybe even more than the other two at times. It depends what mood I'm in, I guess.

Now I want to watch Return of the Living Dead. I don't know why, I just do.
 
Re: Watching Day of the Dead

I love zombie movies, but for some reason I can't get into the Romero series. I haven't been able to sit through Dawn or Night, or even the Night 1990 remake, I just got bored with them. And it's annoying, because I WANT to like them :) I've only seen Return of the Living Dead 2, which I thought was really cool, but I'll buy RotLD in due time.

Anybody seen 'Undead', made by a couple of guys in my city. On IMDB it seems some like it, some hate it with a passion. Any opinions on this board?
 
Re: Watching Day of the Dead

I haven't seen Undead yet, but desperately want to. The trailer looks fantastic.
 
Re: Watching Day of the Dead

Have Lions Gate released it yet in the States? Yeah I really like it, although at like the half way mark it starts to blend sci-fi into it which some people might not like (I would have prefered it if it just stayed horror).
 
Re: Watching Day of the Dead

haven't seen. Any idea for links to a trailer? I know Hudson has mentioned it, but I'm totally stoked for making a indie zombie. It is my new years resolution. Anyone else want in? I have a great story idea that could encompass many people's work....
 
Re: Watching Day of the Dead

I'm all ears. I plan to get working on my own zombie stuff once the damn weather decides what it's gonna do. I swear, one day it's 15F the next... 50F. WTF?
 
Re: Watching Day of the Dead

I went to the premiere of it in Brisbane and got everyone's, except Felicity Mason (who plays the lead, René) autograph on the poster, then got it laminated and the ****ing place, ****ed it up! There was dry glue near the top corner and they said, "oh, just iron it under a tea towel and that will melt the glue". It made it WORSE! ARH, reliving painful old memories ;D

When I met the directors they seemed smug and egotistical like, "we edited it on Premiere, high-five guys! we're the best." That annoyed me
 
Re: Watching Day of the Dead

oh, the plot involves several groups of people dealing with the zombie situation. In different parts of the country/world and with varying circumstances.... I can give you more detail later...
 
Re: Watching Day of the Dead

Yeah, well they didn't actually say that Premiere stuff to me, they said it at the Toronto Premiere (it's on the DVD, Aust. Release anyway) but they seemed like they didn't want to talk to me, as if they were too good to.
 
Re: Watching Day of the Dead

Oh and Horse, were you called the Undead guys bastards or the Laminating guys. Because I would accept both as the correct answer ;D ;D
 
Re: Watching Day of the Dead

That's what I don't get. Without fans, they don't have a career. Don't treat your fans like ****.

You're correct. It was kinda aimed at both.
 
Re: Watching Day of the Dead

Weird that this would get brought up tonight. I was just brainstorming earlier about this idea I have for a zombie flick.

Oh man, it's such a great idea, I can't wait to get goin with it.
 
Re: Watching Day of the Dead

I always watch zombie films for:

Inspiration
background noise
to watch
on a friday night.
 
Re: Watching Day of the Dead

The problem with the zombie genre is that most of them are shite; yes. even mine. :-/

I love it though; love the end of the world apocalyptic vibe they create. The macabre of the dead walking the earth. Unfortunately, there just aren't that many good ones to watch which kind of gives the genre a bad name to those who havent seen the god ones.

My FAVS in order?

DAY OF THE DEAD
DAWN OF THE DEAD 04
DAWN OF THE DEAD
NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD
THE RETURN OF THE LIVING DEAD
28 DAYS LATER
ZOMBIE
 
Re: Watching Day of the Dead

I watched Living Dead at the Manchester Morgue (aka Let Sleeping Corpses Lie) again a couple nights ago. I really dig that flick. The cinematography really does it for me. Nothing like zombies roaming the English countryside, eh?
