Diary of the Dead

Has anyone seen Romero's "Diary of the Dead"? I'm getting ready to order it but would like opinions. I can't imagine a Romero movie being not worth owning. Just curious.

*laughing* I found a copy at Columbia House for $11 and some change. I get discounts for being a member. (Also not compensated endorsement for Columbia House-lol)

I finally got a chance to watch it. I loved it. I loved that the radio broadcast (when they were in that big garage thing with the black guys) was taken from the original Night of the Living Dead. I loved that Tucker from Dawn of the Dead (remake) had a cameo and someone else told me that the Amish guy was Glen from Dawn of the Dead, the g** guy who was trying on shoes. I've got to watch it again.....

I love Romero (even "Bruiser" one of his best non zom films) but "Diary" seemed too polished to me. Bad one liners, while sometimes fine in a regular movie seemed horribly out of place in a "real documentry". It also seemed like it was trying to hard to be socially relevant, unlike his past films that just were. It is worth a rent but I dont think it is really worth owning in my opinion.

Ok, thanks for your opinion. I collect Romero films (one of my favs) so I will probably buy it just for the hell of it.

Romero is scrapping the bottom of the barrel. im getting sick of his mass produced movies. i expect crap like that out of low budget indi flicks but not romero

Really? That's disappointing. He is getting old ya know. I would like to see him come out with something a little more modern (i.e. the Dawn of the Dead remake) which I know was not his. Awesome flick though. I kinda like Land of the Dead though. Big name actors, more gruesome....

i agree, the new dawn of the dead was amazing, most zombie flicks dont scare the shit out of me like that did

Dairy WAS a low-budget movie.

Diary of the Dead was okay...Could have been better though. I was a little disappointed since it was a George Romero movie and it wasn't too great.
