Summary: Good remake.
Review: I found this movie to be pretty good, but not as gripping as the original. The special effects are better, the movie is well acted and keeps up the pace, however I tend to still like the original one better, but I cannot put my finger on why I feel so. Overall: GOOD.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: ...
Review: ...This movie is horror,what is not scary about corpses rising to eat the living?If you have never seen it or have never seen this version the remake it is worth your time.Not as good as the original version but the zombies do look quite frightening in it.I highly doubt this was made to be a comedy...Yes Dawn of the Dead did have some humour to it but George Romero created these movies to have both a comment on our society but also to be scary as he has said himself in so many words...

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Ok ok, so it's in color...
Review: I've been a fan of George A. Romero from a long time, and when I saw the remake of NOTLD by Tom Savini... WOW! Tom is good!

OK, the camera angles, and the attitude of all characters are a little bit different, but this version gave me the creeps!

The ending is excellent!Watch it!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The scariest movie of this century!!
Review: This is the scariest movie I have ever seen. And I am a horror movie fanatic! I've seen the Halloween's, the Friday 13th's and the Scream's and none of them compare to this. What makes the movie scary is the fact that it plays on your fears. You can put yourself in the shoes of the people in the movie, traped in a house with who knows how many zombies outside! Just the thought of being in the situation gives me the chills. And the make up of Romero in this movie is absolutly chilling. Heres a little challenge that neither me nor any of my friends have passed.....Try watching this movie all the way through, late at night with all the lights turned off.......by yourself in your house...ALL ALONE!! If you make it and can sleep soundly that night, your a bigger man than I!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Man, I was Really Impressed!
Review: Wow!
When I first heard about this remake, I thought the worst as the original "Night of The Living Dead" is a horror classic and as most "remakes" generally stink, I wasn't expecting much.
But it was great! A real horror treat!
In a time when really good horror films are few and far between, this film delivers!
Tom Savini's direction was fantastic, especially this being his first time. George A. Romero's rewrite of the original script was well-thought out and features a stronger 90's type woman and a great twist ending.
The zombie makeup and special effects are far superior and the acting is grade A.
I'm not knocking the original, but was more than pleasantly suprised at this trip back to the world of the dead.
Bravo!

Summary: Not Bad, but Not the Best.
Review: After seening this movie, I have to tell you that in my eyes, except for a few notable exceptions, It pales to the orgional 1968 version. Still a worth while venture though in any Horror fan's collection.

The story line is changed ever so slightly than the orginal (not for the btter either) and the fact they they let any of the cast survive the onslaught makes me ill. The Actor who playes Cooper is good... Ben was also as convincing.... Patricia Tallman trying to be the "ASH" of the femal world (Going through hell and becoming a tough guy) was retarded at best. I won't give the story away though.. Just watch and see.
The ending was not all that great either.... I thought the whole politcal ending that Romero made of the orginal was not only more pointed but also more powerful and disturbing. (Disturbung makes horror)

ON the Good notes however.... Leave the best for last.. The budget and special effects are far better than the original. Tom Savini who also Directs the film as well as the special effects had made the zombies creepier as well as more realistic to the ravages of rot and autopsy.
Color for film is always better than Black and white anyday....
Escpecially for Horror... Blood don't look right unless it's red.

I would still suggest renting this movie and watching it... Or buying it for you collection.... Not to bad....
But Not Geroge Romero either.

Bon Appetite. :)Enjoy the Zombie flesh and pus.

Summary: A FINE COMEDY
Review: *** MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS ***

I'm a fan of The Three Stooges. So I had to enjoy this movie. Night of the Living Dead has big similarities between acting, directing, and plot. The most powerful, is the way the movie plays gags so bad and over-the-top, they're laugh-out-loud funny.

Night of the Living Dead is a brilliant satire. Not of horror, but of human nature. How easily scared humans are, and how idiotic they act when they get afraid.

The creators of this film must have had a lot of fun. At several points, the actors were having a very hard time trying to keep from laughing their heads off. They almost ruined the film! For example, the redhead was almost in tears over how stupid the zombies looked. The zombies themselves were roaring their heads off, groaning and slouching like teenagers, who really, really needed to go to the bathroom. Everything in Night of the Living Dead is funny.

There's nothing so cute as a movie that makes fools out of the gullible part of the audience, getting them to take the plot seriously, then making a joke out of it. It's a childlike mischief that gives you a warm feeling inside.

This is a good movie for your kids to watch.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: a brilliant classic
Review: I just saw this movie and I did not think i would like it, but it truly is a classic, and it is not scary but it is still one of the best horror movies I have seen in a long time. So you should rent it and I am going to buy it.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: POINTLESS REMAKE
Review: Virtual scene-for-scene color remake of the 1968 classic, directed by FX wizard Tom Savini. George A. Romero co-wrote the screenplay, but all in all; apart from being bloodier than the original it is all pretty pointless and boring. I'm just grateful that they haven't done the same thing to DAWN OF THE DEAD.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: "Theyre ... Barbara, theyve been dead a long time.."
Review: That line is part of the opening in this remake of the ole black n white Romero flick. I prefer this remake to the original. The make up is superb and there isnt a lot of gore. This is perfect flick for the entry level zombie or even horror fan. The character changes in the new are a welcome: Barbara bags a rifle, Ben, well, poor dude. The two zombies in the grave yard in the beginning are good enough to freak you out. This movie is better than the original. Its colorful and more convincing.
