Trivia:
Cameo: [Guillermo del Toro]Director of films such as Blade II (2002), Hellboy (2004), and El laberinto del fauno (2006) (a.k.a. "Pan's Labyrinth") cameos in a voiceover role as a newsreader. moreGoofs:
Errors in geography: Scranton is 122 miles northeast of Harrisburg; it does not make sense traveling from Pittsburgh (in the western most part of Pennsylvania) to drop a character off in Scranton before swinging down to take another to Harrisburg. moreQuotes:
[first lines]Police Officer: 628 Tremont. 6-2-8. Three dead. No, just the usual. Fuck. Usual. It's no big deal these days, right?

George A Romero, in my opinion is without a doubt one of the finest directors of his time. His 'Dead' series is my favourite film franchise of all time. So, as you'd expect, I awaited eagerly for the DVD release of this title (I'm 16, so the cinema wasn't an option.) I sat down and watched. And what did I watch? Some of the WORST acting I have ever laid eyes upon on a film with this much hype. I don't know what it was, whether the despicable lead characters and their unrealistic behaviour or the 'comedy' elements that weren't funny but it just didn't work. It pains me to say it, it honestly does but this entry was by far the worst of them all. Romero's previous films in the series always display a subtle and effective message about the social/political or moral attitudes of our society, but 'Diary...'s message is clunky and uncomfortably obvious about the YouTube and MySpace phenomenon. Overall, a total let down, made even worse by the sheer awesomeness of the previous instalment's. I've tried to be constructive with my criticisms here, but even Romero's reputation is struggling to save this one here. I just hope there is another one, to save the reputation of the Series. 3/10 P:(
