Survival of the Dead (2010)

Highly Overrated But Still Good

Crappy film

Absolutely the worst movie.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

I don't know what Romero was thinking when he did this piece of trash, but if this is the best he can do today, please retire. The entire plot is stupid. I was unaware that off the coast of the US there was a society of Irish refugees. How the hell did he come up with that bonehead idea? This is also full of useless humor, such as the zombie getting its head blown off and the top of the skull landing on it's neck stump. And no matter what George says, he stole the zombies eating a horse idea from The Walking Dead, showing he's running out of ideas. I thought Land, where the zombies are starting to think was bad, this was worse. At least Land had a coherent story and decent acting. This was bad enough to be made by the Asylum.

Worst zombie movie yet. The zombies are even less scary then the ones in night of the living dead. But not even that, there are barely any zombies in this movie. This wasn't even a zombie movie really. The story is awful. It was basically a really boring story about some army people going to an island with some dude who is in a feud with another guy on the island, the feud is over whether the zombies should be saved or not. The best parts of this movie happen in the last 15 minutes. My favorite part was when the girl gets bit by her twin zombie sister, I laughed pretty hard. But this is not suppose to be a comedy. I don't know what George Romero is thinking, I am in disbelief that this is his movie.

I think it amusing, half of you that are on here to bash films were probably not born when Romero first hit "Night". All you know is "CGI" these days. Yet, during you incubation, REAL films occurred. You Twighlight, Hunger Games idiots (which comprise a lot of you these days have no idea of cinema and it's purpose. Your purpose is to complain and nothing more simply because in "real life" no one give a crap on your opinions. You people are pathetic. How hard is it to actually enjoy a film for what it is? Just a friggin film. People pick apart films too much theses day. It's like they expect it to mirror life on a real scale. What ever happened to just pure fantasy and escape? This is whar movies are intended to be. All I say to you nerds that have to pick apart a film simply because YOU disagree .....well...eat it! Stay at home at 45. Don't try to attempt a life because life don't want you. Better yet....shoot yourself and save everyone the trould of having to take care of you after your mom gets murdered by your dad...'cause I would probably do the samre if I had a kid like you.

I'll keep this short for everyone who actually cares enough to read it: Shocking is how I'd describe finding out this movie was by THE George Romero. Why is that so surprising? Well, the movie is s***, you see. I gave it seven stars, sure. Because it's ENJOYABLE s***. It's one of those movies you hope to God wasn't supposed to be taken seriously. It's honestly got terribly hokey zombie scenes (not just fake, but just overall lousy scenes) throughout the movie. It's a movie about a post-apocalyptic world where hundreds of thousands of people die each day, and yet these characters often have time to look around, find an interesting weapon, and kill a zombie. Highlights include literally punching a zombie a couple times, then throwing it around without it doing anything, Upon throwing over that zombie, the character grabs a nearby flare gun, shoots it into the zombie's torso, and the zombie's head somehow spontaneously combusted. Another character kills a zombie by placing a fire extinguisher nozzle into a zombie's mouth, and using the extinguisher until the zombie's eyes explode out.Sorry, I dragged on. To sum up, sure. If you have 90 minutes to kill, watch it. Otherwise, exert the little amount of energy necessary to change the channel from whatever station is playing this (I assume) made-for-TV movie.
