This is a very well done and very unnecessary remake of George Romero's 1968 classic. Other than a very few scenes, it is almost exactly the same as the original. Now, don't get me wrong, it was fun to watch and not a total waste of time but I feel if you're going to remake a film, you should at least change it up a bit.
A group of people barricade themselves inside a farmhouse to escape from a hoard of reanimated corpses hungry for human flesh. As tensions rise and arguments ensue, it becomes obvious that they have to worry about the potential harm they will cause each other. Everything begins to fall apart and leads to a stunning conclusion.
Every technical is good as far as acting and directing. The story is good but as I said, a little too similar too the 1968 version. All in all, you'll probably find plenty to enjoy here if you're a fan of the original but don't expect anything new.
7/10 stars. |
