I saw this on my girlfriend's dentist's dog groomers blog like 3 hours ago. Ain't it OLD NEWS!! DERRRRR....."

some of us don't spend hours a day perusing every nerdy fucking fansite looking for every up to the minute exclusive. some of us don't even go to Chud, since looking at the website (which I believe was designed by a blind, drunk teenager) makes us physically sick.

some of us just come here. because if something is important enough that I should care, it will be here. and if it's (pause for a huge gasp) 3 days after it was available on imhardforzombies.com well, I couldn't possibly care less.

people like you offering their 2 cents over and over and over and over anytime AICN is perceived as being behind by a day, it's so fucking boring.

stay in the Lost talkbacks, please...

I think he's a good director who still has it. LAND OF THE DEAD was quite good in its own way (having nothing whatever to do with zombies - as always). so I'm hoping he has some angle here besides the whole BLAIR CLOVERFIELD PROJECT thing he's obviously got going on there.

Contrary to popular belief, Spinal Tap is a relatively new work, and one of the only successes that came out of the VH1 tv movies.

That, and the fact that there's a healthy contingent of Zack Snyder's attention-deficit asslickers lurking on here waiting to rip on anything that doesn't have Korn or Slipknot in the soundtrack.

You immature little puppies.

One because it's excellent and has an ending that kicks you right in the gut, and 3 because it's got Bub. Land can fuck off because it took the subtlety of Bub and shat all over it with an untalented asshole who goes "AAAARGGHHHARRGHHH" and nods his head in the direction he wants other zombies to go - he was shit!!

Plus, Land was slow paced and had some dick going on about how the zombies were "just trying to find their place". Fuck you buddy, they're place is eating your face off. And what the fuck are sky flowers?? Does the word 'firework' not exist in Romero's universe or something?

As for Dawn, fuck it. It's badly acted, horribly paced and edited, has shitty music, shitty effects and a 'first-year-sociology-student' stab at social commentary. Fuck that movie, I wouldn't watch it on a bet. I'm glad so many were inspired by that movie or remember it fondly, but I'd rather watch Howard the Duck on continuous loop - at least it has duck tits and Lea Thompson in her undies.

In the case of Hostel, and I'm not denying that there isn't a smarter film struggling to emerge from Roth's immense hackitude, as soon as the decision was made to turn the film into torture porn the focus was shifted and the smarter film was smothered.

BTW in no sense of the word could it be called satire. It isn't.

Whoever said it above was spot on. If Roth intended the social commentary (and I'm very far from allowing this), there were more subtle, and frankly more frightening ways it could have been done. But he didn't- instead he chose to dive into a torture scene. Torture is not intrinsically frightening- it is squirm inducing, and gross, but not scary. It is this difference that hacks like Roth and Zombie don't understand. They think that if you make the audience go "yuck" you have created an effective horror film. This is simply not true.

When you add this to massively unlikeable characters, a script as subtle as a fucking sledgehammer, and an ending that exists just to justify the revenge idea and you have one piss poor excuse for a film.

BTW 28 days later= 2/3 of a classic and 1/3 of a bag of shit. You know this to be true.

And Geek- I like most of 28 days ater, but it is the sequence with the army guys that is weak. It is simply tonally wrong- as if someone cut and pasted day of the dead into dawn.
