I didn't like this movie at all, I did see REC few days before seeing this movie and I loved REC, it was Scary and it had a lot of action in the movie. Jason Creed and a small crew of college filmmakers are in the Pennsylvania woods making a no-budget horror film when they hear the terrifying news t...

Diary of the Dead is the fifth installment of George A Romero's Dead series, and by far the best since Dawn of the Dead. Although it is a zombie film and has gore and violence as you would expect, the real heart of this movie is about the question "Are we too plugged into technology?" Not in...

George A. Romero has come a very long way in this horror community of ours. Building up a strong and high and mighty reign as the zombie movie god. But lately he has been on a down hill slide to nothingness. Romero is losing his touch and he is coming out with movies that are dissapointing fans. Dia...

Diary of the Dead is kind of like George Romero making the Blair Witch Project, but with Romero, you are always getting more than meets the eye. His movies always have a deeper context, give a social commentary, and leave you thinking. He makes you look inside yourself at a major flaw an...

I am going to start this review out a little differently, by telling you what I have learned, Through a course lesson I have taught today. I want to quote John Donne a Poet and clergyman who lived over 400 years ago. In Donne's time when someone died the great bell in the church tower was rung...

The world is (once again) coming to an end--and the dead are (once again) eating the living. Sheeze; ain't we beat this horse to death yet? Apparently not. George Romero's never-ending saga of the dead coming back to life and eating the living has gotten ANOTHER twist. This t...

A group of film students making a horror film find themselves in a real horror situation when the world goes into chaos as the dead return to life to devour the living.The master of zombie horror returns to the well again, and still comes up with the goods.Looking at this on paper it looks unappetis...

George A Romero does it again, this time the right way. Land of the Dead was amazing but lacked the feeling of realism. This movie took place in the world that we currently are in, the Internet world. The movie picks up kind of where Night of the Living Dead leaves off. I know it's not directly ...

George A. Romero's fifth entry in the "Living Dead" series works more as a satire of today's politics and technology than it does as a horror flick. I saw the first two "Dead" films (both of them great), but this latest one feels a bit off. Romero, a master of horror, has always placed social commen...

Unable to leave fans with the disappointing Land of the Dead, George Romero revives the flesh-eating deceased in Diary of the Dead. The Toronto International Film Festival hosted the film’s world premiere to a standing ovation and record attendance by the undead, which shambled across the red car...

I was thrilled when I first got wind of Romero doing another zombie film. His films are iconic for the horror genre and have helped to define zombies in Hollywood. But, when you make a movie every decade since the 60's (excluding the 90's), where...(read more) do yo...

George Romero long ago carved himself a niche in the horror genre as a maker of fantastically allegorical films which fork-fed viewers heaping helpings of social commentary. And this approach worked out very well for him.Diary of the Dead naturally has its fair share of social commentary, as w...

Romero gets 4 out of 5 hairy eyeballs from me for his latest “Dead”. I was afraid that the POV would be like that used in “Cloverfield” (which was a very good show despite the ceaseless wobbly camera) Romero used different camera mediums like the cell phone ...

College students making a Horror movie, find that the real Horror is a zombie outbreak. Trying to survive while traveling in a Winnabego, they continue to film a documentary to tell the truth of the situation. Fantastic premise to an outstanding movie. A zombie movie that literally packs a great hea...

Diary of the Dead is a return to the roots for George A. Romero as he brings the story back to an initial breakout of zombies and combines it with the technology and media of today. Anyone who says that Romero has fallen from the top couldn't be more wrong. Ever since the underrated Land of the Dead...

First let me say, I love Romero films. He casts the most awesome zombies around. But it hurts me to say, I was gravely disappointed in this film. I can only say that it was Romeroish. The acting quality was good, but I might have to blame The Blair Witch for all these people carrying around camco...

Okay, bear with me, I don't do reviews because I don't like to give away plots, etc. I'm going to try to give my opinion without ruining anything. First of all, I was really glad to see George back in his element with lower budget, unknown cast and running the show his way. The c...

George A. Romero is the inventive director of zombie movies. George did not invent zombies, but he did invent the modern zombie and the movie zombie. He created what I would consider a whole new genre to film. Most people are probably less enthusiastic about zombie films than I am, but it's my favor...

George A. Romero's return to the world of zombies he pioneered with the groundbreaking 1968 film Night of The Living Dead is a kind of 're-boot', as it ignores the events of the past films and begins anew in our current times. Re-boot is also apropos as one of the overriding themes of...

For the most part, the recent surge of zombie movies owe what they are putting on screen to the dead movies that Romero introduced us to from the late 60's to mid 80's. Some have been done well by sticking to Romero's guidelines, some have come up with their own rules ...

Okay, let me start out by saying that some reviews i have read about this movie whom gave the movie low scores were all pretty much for the same reason. People became angry because the main character filming would not put down the camera to help anybody during the film weather they were being attack...

Okay you are going to have to bear with me on this one. I always hate having to give less than stellar reviews of directors that I love. Uncle George is very close to my shriveled heart. He practically raised me. Any time there is a new edition to his zombie films I get...

Whoa is me. Today is a sad day. It is with great sadness, and a heavy heart, that I report to you the latest film from George A. Romero, George A. Romero's Diary Of The Dead, is not a very good movie. Bear in mind that I love Dawn of the Dead beyond anything, and I also actually found Land of the De...
