Great movie!!!Romero's Still Got it!!!!!!!!, 13 December 2009
10/10
Author: megadethguy18 from United States

If you loved Day of the dead (the original) and Shawn of the dead.

I saw this at trinity of terrors in Las Vegas on Halloween weekend and it was preceded by a presentation by George A Romero himself.

It was an amazing movie glad to see Romero can still do it !!.

New zombie rules. zombies learn a few new things.

This movie is the most direct sequel to any of the Romero films taking off with the robbing soldiers from Diary of the dead.

now this movie is traditionally shot so its not first person perspective.

I don't wanna give too much away just go see the movie.
