Good old George, always mad about something. Usually it produces a good movie, but not this time. Looking at it strictly as a zombie movie, there are a few good gore scenes, but they're few and far between. This time, the zombies take more of a back seat to their human counterparts. Unfortunately, the characters are so uninteresting, they might as well be zombies themselves. The only one I found interesting and able to relate to was the drunk, British professor. This is funny, since I'm neither British nor drunk. I know the commentary present on the evils of Youtube, Myspace, etc, that's trying to be conveyed. Compared with the other dead films though, where the political subtext was present in the background, here it's force fed to you with a narrator almost literally saying, "You can't trust the mainstream media, but you can't trust the ****they put on Youtube either, ahhhh!" See Cloverfield if you want to see a handheld-style movie.

To be honest, I had to see this movie twice... the first time I left the theater unsure about what I had seen. This wasn't your typical Romero zombie flick... it had a different spin. Sure, the social commentary was there, the great zombie kill scenes, and the unknown actors struggling with dialogue were also present; however, there was something different about this one. While it has a great stroryline and the movie is able to keep your interest, Romero really set this up for a sequel... whether he will admit it or not. When looking back on the previous dead movies, they all came to a conclusion for the characters and the viewer, but not this time. This is what I think I was struggling with on my first viewing of the movie. The feeling of incompletion of no resolution sort of bothered me. In truth though, this is a great Zombie movie with some great side characters.... especially the mute amish guy (Samuel) who steals the movie in his all of 5 minutes on the screen... brilliant

I traveled out of my way to see the latest George Romero Diary and was very disappointed with the film. His last was not his best either but I love the genre so I gave him another chance. Do not waste your time. If you must see it, wait for the dvd. You are not missing anything. Boring and unbelievable, and this is a zombie film I am talking about.

it was an awesome movie i like how it was from the eyes of the people who where really in the midts of it all. it did make me motion sick but so did cloverfield and i saw that twice! if its a good movie its worth it and it was worth it for this one !

Let me start by saying that I am a huge Romero fan. I like EVERYTHING the man has made...except this dreadful waste of film. This move wasn't just bad, it was among the worst movies that I have ever seen. The story goes nowhere, like they wrote it as they were filming. The acting is horrible. I know that when you read "horrible" you may be thinking "really bad" or "very unpleasant", but watching those people act is closer to finding out that you have a brain parasite or that you just ran over you sister with the car. The only good acting in the entire movie was the performance by the Amish farmer...and he was deaf so he had no lines! My wife isn't as much of a Romero fan and only tolerates my love of zombie films because she loves me so damn much. How she sat through the entire thing is entirely beyond me. I was trying so hard to like it but she has the patience of a god. All copies of the movie should be buried and the ground salted so that nothing will ever grow.
