Day Of The Dudd

Why is it with a budget of 8 million you cant make a better version than the original which cost a mere $3,000,000; its not rocket science but I guess you need a Romero at the helm.

Not very scary or claustrophobic like the original was, woeful acting, illogical situations. cheddar cheesy dialogue and blood shooting out like a hose made it comical - The Walking Dead has it spot on so why not just copy if you dont have a clue what you are doing. I wont mention the ending which had the entire audience laughing - Oh my what were they thinking? And to add insult to injury the thrash metal "nettle-rash" music as my old dad used to call it at the end credits really did aggravate an already aggravated viewing sesh!

Its not awful - the people who give 1 star are as bad as the shills who give 10/10 to every movie they review and havent a clue what the ratings systems means - 1 star means its the worst movie you have ever seen; watch "THE BAD BATCH" with Keanu Reeves then come back and tell me you would still give this a 1 star.

To be fair Johnathon Schaech did a pretty good attempt at the original Bubba-zombie (he was the best actor in the whole thing) and the effects were not bad. The Dawn Of The Dead remake has been one of the best Zombo remakes but sadly this one is not. How very disappointing I must say! We can only hope Peter Jackson gets his Zombie movie that he has been talking about for over a decade off the ground, until then I guess us die hard zombo fans will have to make do with The Walking Dead!

A fair 3/10 from me!
