Ok... that might be a little harsh... that day wasn't nearly as bad as this movie.
George A. Romero should be taken to a public square, humiliated, called names and forced to listen to Celine Dion and George Michael records over and over and over again for forcing this atrocity of a movie on us. It BLEW!!! To say it sucked would somehow be giving it too much credit.
The premise is ok... film students making a movie get a front row seat on the horror express. Sounds good, right? But it was oh so wrong. First of all it was slow...if we wanted a movie full of blah, blah, blah and character back story we would have rented some lame movie like Atonement. But we didn't...we rented the latest from the "Master" of flesh eating, brain munching, stomach churning gore....George A. Romero.
It was so horrible that the one bright spot was an Amish character named Samuel that couldn't talk...and of course he only lasted for 5 minutes before becoming lunch. Tom had his finger on the fast forward button and we finally just started zooming through the movie to the actual good parts... which were woefully few and far between.
The only credit I can give this movie was that the few munching scenes were relatively bloody. That's it....that's all the good I can say about this piece of #$%&.
Maybe Tom would like to chime in... but I doubt it. I'll sum it up this way... the movie was so unbelievably lame that I put MYSELF on movie selection probation.
Do yourself a favor...enjoy the trailer and rent The Hills Have Eyes instead.
