Survival of the Dead 2010 ½

Watched Jun 10, 2012

The latest in Romero's 'Living Dead' franchise tries to be a weird mix of zombie horror, family drama and western, but just ends up being kind of boring and unoriginal, with none of the social satire that made the previous films exceptional. Intelligent zombie plot goes back to being stupid. A zombie riding a horse? Really?

One thing that George Romero did get right, throughout the whole of the movies, was sticking to the slow zombies. They are so much more suspenseful and so much scarier than the fast zombies from REC, etc.
