Review

I am a huge zombie movie fan. Of course my favorites are Night of the Living Dead, Return of the Living Dead, Day of the Dead, Dead Alive, and the original Dawn of the Dead. The thing about old zombie movies is that they are so corny and fake, but they still gave me the chills every time I watched one.

I’m such a huge fan, though, that my family and I talk about what we would do if zombies invaded our community all the time. To me, the whole concept is just awesome. So, when I heard about a remake of the greatest zombie movie ever, I was excited but also a little skeptical. I wasn’t sure if they would deliver. They did cast Ving Rhames as the ultra bad black dude of the movie, which was pretty cool. So I thought, “Hey, I guess it won’t be that bad.” Well I was “Dead” wrong. (sorry, no pun intended). This movie wasn’t “that bad”… It was fucking incredible!!!11!1!. Not only was it a great zombie movie, it was filmed extremely well, it had great characters, and even though it was completely reworked, it was awesome.

The characters in the movie kicked so much ass. Of course Ving Rhames delivered as a bad ass, but they also had the character C.J., who had the baddest handle barred mustache ever invented. Then they had the character Steve who had more witty and sarcastic comments than Lame on one of his good days! With just those three characters alone this movie rocked. But they still had a bad ass girl, a hot teenager chick, a shotgun toting truck driver, an asskicking old lady, Mekhi Phifer dieing, fat zombie getting a rod through the eye, a sniper, gun shop, BOOBS, great kills, mass zombie explosions, chainsaw deaths, BOOBS, people getting hit by cars, akimbo pistol fire, and of course the zombie wrecking machines that the survivors built. This movie has it all… So go see it now.

P.S. Security guards pwn j00!!!
