Default 'Day of the Dead' (2008) -- pre-release buzz

First Look has announced a Blu release for the 2008 direct-to-video remake:

http://bluray.highdefdigest.com/dayofthedead2008.html

Actually saw this and was better than I expected, so will look forward to the Blu-ray.

No specs yet, but street date is Dec 2, and MSRP only $24.95.

I hear it IS a truly atrocious film.


I'm not surprised that Peter enjoyed it. It was directed by Steve Miner who directed one of the Friday the 13th films...wink, wink.

The remake of Day of the Dead is god awful! Has nothing to do with George Romero or his version of Day of the Dead (which is a great movie).

This remake of Day of the Dead is without a doubt the worst remake I have ever seen. No redeeming qualities whatsoever.

I hope they don't have the cover like the DVD with the vomiting zombie. That was just too much.

I didn't think the original was all that special so I never bothered with the remake.

I didn't like this movie at all, it was just awful. I didn't even like Romero's latest zombie flick Diary of the Dead, that was even disappointing.

Then don't dude. Let people have their own opinion of the movies, you can't change their mind for them. If they like a movie then fine, if they don't then that's fine to. If they want to say they like or dislike it then they have the right to do so. I don't see why people criticize others because of movies they like.
