1/5 Mena Suvari Shooting Zombies
  by Tsuyoshi (Kyoto, Japan)
The best thing about "Day of the Dead" (2008) is its short running time. It is only 86 minutes. The 86 minutes of your life will be wasted, though.

People living in a small Colorado town are infected with an unknown disease, which turn them into flesh-eating zombies. The generic story doesn't even bother to explain to us why certain characters are immune to the deadly airborne disease, but never mind. This is the town where a soldier named Sarah Bowman (Mena Suvari) is born and raised, and Sarah, sent there to quarantine the town, visits her home to discover that the situation is worse than she expected.

The story is nothing special, an average one. Strangely, though the new film uses the name of George A. Romero's film of the same name made in 1985 (his name is credited in the opening), the storyline is completely different, as you may have noticed, except some key elements. But the difference doesn't end there, as zombies in the new "DODD" can not only run; they are also capable of using weapons, jumping from upstairs window and crawling on the ceiling like a lizard. So, what is the point of using Romero's name?

The film is fast-paced, but it has no rhythm. Actions are weak and shoddily edited. Things don't get better with the wooden acting from the stars (including Nick Cannon and a short cameo by Ving Rhames) and the bland direction of Steve Miner ("Lake Placid") and his shaky camera. Even the character of "Bud, who could have been much more interesting, failed to impress us, as he is not given a chance to show what he can do.

Forget about this pointless "remake" of "Day of the Dead." Thankfully it is short, but is still a waste of your time.

4/5 This is not a remake, but a re-imagining and it's pretty entertaining

OK so I saw the new Day of the Dead movie and the first time I saw it, I really thought it sucked. I was like what does this movie have to do with the original??? Then I watched the original again and after that I watched the re-imagining another time and the second time I saw it I loved it! The original is a little too slow and boring for me now days, I use to like it when I was younger, but now when I see the old one I keep catching myself thinking "when the hell is something gonna happen"?
The new re-imagining of the movie is the total opposite and is filled with action and the newer "fast zombies" which can run, jump and all that good stuff and yeah it is intense... I read a few reviews about somebody said "Zombies can't shoot guns and they can't think at all" or something and that was one of their complaints about the movie.. Well if they really think that, I think they should take another look at George Romero's original Day of the Dead, because the zombie "Bub" actually is learning how to do things and he also does shoot a gun in that movie. The same thing happens once again in Land of the dead, so the argument that zombies can't do any of that is just stupid.
Anyway back to this movie... If you want to watch a zombie movie that is intense and has a lot of action and that really will keep you at the edge of your seat, then watch Day of the Dead. It's a good movie, but when you watch it you have to keep an open mind and not think too much about the original. Just take it for what it is and it will be very entertaining. It's not as good as the re imagining of Dawn of the dead, but it still does a great job on keeping you entertained!
I give this movie 4 out of 5 stars!

4/5 If You Like Fast Zombies...

I liked this video enough to pay $5 for it. I found it entertaining because I ignored the title and enjoyed it for what it was without comparing it to the Romero flick which wasn't very good anyway.
It is a self contained story that does not follow the Romero Trilogy in any way.
I love fast zombies so it was not hard for me to get in to this movie. Dont believe all the scathing reviews. If you like zombie horror, give it a chance. If you liked the yawn inducing "classic" from 1985, which shares its title, then you probably needn't bother.

3/5 Dead is right

This was disappointing in many ways, the whole "Super Zombie" thing was horrible, they tried to develop the characters but had so little back story it was poor. I really was hoeing that it would be a continuation of Dawn of the Dead, still in my opinion the best of my Zombie flick arsenal. The acting wasn't as bad as your typical Zombie flick and once you realize that this is not going to be as good as Dawn of the Dead, and just sit back and enjoy the ride. You can enjoy the film. I just don't like forcing myself to enjoy a movie. If you are a Zombie flick fan then yes this must be in your collection. If you are just starting to enjoy Zombie flicks, then wait till your already hooked.
