OMFG! Just saw it tonight and just about creamed myself (bizarre...what with it being a horror flick and all). The feel of the movie was perfect for a zombie flick and, although it's essentially just a remake of a damn near 20 year old movie, it brought a lot of new things to the original concept. Could've done without some of the characters...ironically the ones that waste each other. Here's why I love these type of movies: the computer effects, if any, are kept to a bare minimum. It's all about the talent of the special FX guy and in this case it was top notch (they even gave Savini a cameo as the cop on TV who says they've "got a twitcher"). Honestly one of the best horror flicks I've seen in years...possibly ever. I think it even tops the original...though not by much. I'm wondering (more like hoping) if they'll remake Day Of The Dead and if Romero will finally make his promised Twilight Of The Dead.
Sorry...more ramblings from a horror junkie.
