Movie Reviews of Night of the Living Dead
Movie Review: One scene will disturb you
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this movie at a video store on VHS. I saw it along time ago on cable and i thought it was good. I searched for it at the video store Blockbuster but they had the original one. I wanted the remake with Tony Todd. Anyways this movie was a great remake, There was one part that was extremely disturbing.It was when barbara's brother johnny is wrestling with the zombie to save her. Johnny makes a mistake when The zombie puts him in a full nelson and trips him, johnny hits his face on one of the corners of a grave. Johnny landed so hard that he impaled and broke his face and neck simultaneously.(Now That has got to f*****G hurt). This was the most disturbing and realistic scene throughout the whole movie. Take my advice watch this scene in slow motion with your vcr, It is disturbing and nail-bitting. Great job savini!Movie Review: Remake better than the original a rarity
Summary: 5 Stars
I love the original "Night of the Living Dead," finding it one of the funniest films ever (considering when I saw it, it was the second feature of a double bill with the original horrific "Last House on the Left"). When Tom Savini announced he'd be directing the remake, we fans of the horror film community looked forward to it, and he delivered big time. Also written by George A. Romero, the storyline deliberately tweaks a number of story and character aspects from the original film, making having seen the original almost a prerequisite, but not completely. this version even comes across as far more "believable" regarding the group's situation. This remake stands alone well, but I must stress it does stand up Even Better when the viewer has full knowledge of the original, mostly to spot various homage nods.Movie Review: Move over, Ms. Weaver
Summary: 5 Stars
Although this movie is based on George Romero's Night of the Living Dead, it felt very different. Perhaps it is my failure to appreciate 1960s era characterization and pacing. Here, you have two strong characters, male and female. The transformation of the female character is a bit surprising (how does she turn into a crack shot?). I do feel that her emotional transformation is congruent. She's finally externalized her personal demons, and realized they can be overcome by shooting them in the head. What was she before the movie started? A nurse? Social worker? Secretary? Regardless, she overcomes a lifetime of waiting and enduring to come out with guns blazing against obstacles. "What I was is dead now". Go girl. If only she was in the sequel, much like the Aliens saga followed Ripley.Movie Review: The scariest movie of this century!!
Summary: 5 Stars
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!Movie Review: Night of the Living Dead.......
Summary: 5 Stars
Night of the Living Dead is a 1990 remake of George Romero's 1968 classic of the same name. Directed by Tom Savini; it stars Tony Todd, Patricia Tallman and Tom Towles. For this remake, Romero rewrote the original screenplay with John A. Russo(whom he had originally wrote it with). It tells the story of a group of humans who fend off hordes of the walking dead in a secluded farmhouse in Western Pennsylvania, only fueding between themselves proves to be just as deadly. The story follows the same core story of the original but with slight alterations & changes. It was made on a budget of $4,200,000 but proves that great movies can be made on low budgets. This is a worthy remake of an old classic that every zombie fan should have in their collection. I really enjoyed it.
