George A. Romero's ...of the Dead trailer
Zombie movie master George Romero is back with his....umpteenth zombie flick, this one titled "...of the Dead". I guess he ran out of segments of the day to set his films around(There's always Brunch of the Dead). I was a fan of Romero's early work, but his latest films have left much to be desired. They just don't have the social relevance of the previous stuff, and I feel he's been surpassed by some of the most recent zombie films by other creators(Danny Boyle, Zack Snyder). This one, however, is taking a different angle on the whole zombie situation. The inhabitants of this zombie infested island can't bring themselves to kill their loved ones and instead are living with them pretending all is normal. Obviously this won't last, but atleast it's something new for the series.
