I believe Zombie films have been played BUT if it's a Romero film then it's worth seeing. Strictly my opinion.
Was there ever an explanation as to why they're cannibals?

I hate running zombies. But that’s an argument neither of us will win since it’s entirely opinion.

Yes he created the genre but he isn't adding anything else to it except what he originally created. Would rather another 28 days later sequel then this. @ Izombie

The Amish guy was silly and out of place, but he WAS bada$$ and I whooped when he made his appearance. My initial gripe, as I was walking out of the theater wasn't with the shady grasp of physics that has an arrow send a fifty pound kid flying through the air like he was shot out of a cannon -- and this is so funny and picayune and specific that one could easily ignore or dismiss it -- but my initial gripe was with BATTERY POWER. :) I've been shooting with Panasonic and Canon DVs for years now and I've never run across one with the kind of battery life on display in <i>Diary</i>. The camera guys would have had to have been racing about with battery belts or vests to get that kind of reliable, long-term power. Yeah, yeah, and there's no sound in space and nothing travels faster than the speed of light and there's no such thing as The Force AND we're dealing with a movie about the reanimated dead. But the entire setup of the film, the way it was shot and the whole reason it was shot the way it was shot, was it was a wandering documentary -- live, baby. So it's quite a legitimate gripe that these guys never seemed to run out of juice. I can honestly admit to liking some parts of Diary.

The guy is too busy "filming" to at least alert his friend that the zombie right behind him? Erroneous!) does not mean that they are haters or being overly negative. Nor does it warrant the use of CAPS. It was a crappy film by any standard and survived ONLY because of Romero's legacy.

Between Day of the dead and Land of the dead it was freakin' years! And I for one, was beside myself when Land came out, FINALLY Romero was back! And now he's made Diary, and now Survival... keep them comin' Georgie baby! After Romero makes a zombie movie, everyone waits with baited breath to see what social commentary will be attached, and all the copycats follow his lead. We've had Cold War paranoia, super commercialism, the 80's nuclear threat, the Rumsfeld-bush era neo-conservativism, voyeuristic society... what is to come? I don't know but I always wanted to know what happened on that island. (referred to in "Dawn") As long as Romero is alive and kicking, he should be making zombie movies.

I love Mr. Romero. I think he's a fantastic guy, but... He's done enough. Retreading the same material ain't winning him any points. <i>Blankity-blank of the Dead</i> every three years. Damn, man, I don't think I have it in me to care anymore; especially not after the ham-handed morality of <i>Diary</i>: "Are we worth saving? You tell me." Ummm... No. Not if you're gonna throw that in my face, kitten. I know Romero was writing dialog for a pretentious art house poseur college filmmaker bint, but it doesn't make the preaching any less odious, just more clumsy and overt. :) @ Vic:
