This looks really good actually, it's been a long wait for a follow up to the holy trilogy, and I'm praying it delivers.

Yes! Can't wait! I love zombie films, I even had a dream i was out killing zombies once and had to do my dear old zombie mum in. with a shotgun. natch.

I wish George Romero had got more backing for his films over the years. His non zombie film Martin really shows what great stuff he can make even with no money and non-actors. That might even pip all the Dead trilogy to be my favourite Romero film

your right chrono, martin was really good, but some of his films stink, im sorry if your a romero fan, but zombies seems to be his niche nowadays.

case in point, bruiser. some famous faces, rubbish acting, ok script, fairly rubbish plot. all in all, the film just seemed... boring and unrealistic. im not saying films HAVE to be realistic, but they have to at least have some flow... this didnt.

the only reason i bought it was for the misfits who played in the background of one of the scenes. definitly one to avoid unless your REALLY keen on romero or misfits.

... umm sorry what was the new film again ?

Well I've only seen the Dead movies and Martin, but I've heard his others are... yeah... of a somewhat lesser quality. Martin is just so beautifully shot and has such an amazing feeling of lonliness and isolation that it shows that the guy does have talent and isn't just a one trick pony. Definitely one of my "pet" movies.

Simon Pegg (of Spaced and Shaun Of The Dead Fame) and Edgar Wright (of Directing Space and Shaun Of The Dead fame) got cameo's as zombies. Lucky buggers
