Trivia

The first trailer for this film used clips not just from Night of the Living Dead (1968) but also from Dawn of the Dead (1978) and Day of the Dead (1985). Although Night is in the public domain, both Dawn and Day are owned by separate companies, neither of which had given permission for the use of footage in the trailer. To avoid legal troubles, this trailer was quickly pulled from distribution, and hasn't been officially shown since. See more »

George returns with another zombie masterpiece
23 June 2005 | by dessartblackcatSee all my reviews

George Romero returns to the genre he had perfected with his "dead" trilogy (Night of, Dawn of, and Day of), with a fourth installment, LAND OF THE DEAD. Fans of the first three films will no doubt be lining up in droves to see this film regardless of what the critics say. Regardless, die hard zombie fans and critics alike should be pleasantly surprised. The sneak peak I saw had fans hooting and hollering and received a standing ovation at the end of the film. The film, while not perfect, is still a achievement in bringing a once dead genre back to life. And who better to do it than the master himself, George A ROmero. Land of the Dead, most closely resembles the dark comedy of Day of the Dead than the other two films, and manages to blend the classic elements of Dawn of the Dead with the modern expectations of films like 28 days Later. Romero fans will love it, and modern horror seekers should hopefully be exposed to a great time. Great special effects, plenty of gore, and great performances all around especially from John Legiozomo, Dennis Hopper, and Asia Argento. Do yourself a favor, and GO SEE THIS MOVIE on the big screen!
