"Survival of Dead" is one dumb, cheap looking, and terrible B-zombie movie that looks like it was inspired from a video game. I'd suggest George A Romeo to stop directing silly zombie movies or get the **** out of Hollywood.

Wow! I'm a huge fan of romero's films. Plus a huge fan of any zombie films for that matter. But this, wow. What were they thinking? That's a serious question. From bad acting, (except the old guy) Cheap effects, ludicrous Wow! I'm a huge fan of romero's films. Plus a huge fan of any zombie films for that matter. But this, wow. What were they thinking? That's a serious question. From bad acting, (except the old guy) Cheap effects, ludicrous story, stupid characters. It's all mashes up to be one big mess. You could see they were going fro some comedic angle with this film, but it was so poorly done. You laugh at, but your laughing at how bad it is. You know so bad it's funny. The shootouts were horrible, they look like shots from some old cheap western, where the camera shows one guy fire, then stops, and you see the guy fall down. Honestly Romero's worst. As a Canadian, I'm disgusted this filth was filmed here.… Expand

Being a life long George Romero Zombie movie fanatic (I Watched the original Night of the Living Dead in 1968 at the age of 9 and every Romero "...of the Dead" movie since), I was excited when I read that his latest movie was going to be Being a life long George Romero Zombie movie fanatic (I Watched the original Night of the Living Dead in 1968 at the age of 9 and every Romero "...of the Dead" movie since), I was excited when I read that his latest movie was going to be released on May 28th 2010. I was even more excited when I learned that Direct TV Channel HDNET Movies was going to show a free sneak preview of "Survival of the Dead" on Wednesday May 26th for (with subscription) 2 days before the movie opens in the theaters. There I sat in my living room, watching George A. Romero's Survival of the Dead for free and after the movie finished I wanted my money back. What a horrible movie it is. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY IN THE THEATERS WATCHING THIS STINK BOMB OF A MOVIE. My exciteness evaporated within the first 15 mintues of this movie. This turned out to be the WORST George Romero movie ever. It was not scary. the gore factor eventhough plentiful was phony looking. the acting HORRENDOUS, the zombies FX so cheesy(Dab some gray makeup on your cheeks and face and there you have the zombie f/x for this movie). The script so lame that I wished I was somewhere else but I had to watch it to the end to see if it was going to get better, well guess what IT DIDN'T. The last scene was so stupid, I am at a loss for words. George A. Romero should retire. Well the only consolation I have is that I copied all his Great movies "Night, Dawn, Day of the Dead"onto my Zune player to enjoy, For certain Survival of the Dead will not be added to my Zune collection.… Expand

Really no purpose in this movie. George A. Romero has already secured his status as among the great horror directors. Is this movie necessary? Regurgitated ideas and just a boring plot line.

Romero's ignorance of Irish politics sinks his political metaphor horror and finally kills his franchise (which was already looking on shaky ground with the previous "Diary of the Dead").

The memories of "Night", "Dawn", Day" and even "Land" will live on, but "Survival of the Dead" is not the fitting zombie finale Romero deserves. Poorly made and cheap in look, it lacks a decent script, seemingly rushed out for the money. Sad.… Expand

Enjoyable little film by Romero. Although it has to be considered as a minor film in his career, that doesn't take itself very seriously, it's clever and funny, and offers some brilliant things to the audience. I think the best way Enjoyable little film by Romero. Although it has to be considered as a minor film in his career, that doesn't take itself very seriously, it's clever and funny, and offers some brilliant things to the audience. I think the best way to analyze it is not thinking about the movie as a horror flick, but as a gory 50s-style western, well crafted and well directed, with a little action and silly and cartoonesque gags. Kenneth Welsh is simply superb!… Expand

This has definitely mad it's way onto my favorite zombie movies of all time, it provides action and laughs, and is ultimately enjoyable and cheesy, it may not be as intense as other zombie movies but it will entertain zombie loving maniacs.

Much better than Diary Of The Dead (that POV angle thing was cliche even 10 years ago). Not scary but then how many zombie films are? Not really the point. Anyway, the main lead is likable and the overall effect is a fun popcorn movie. Just Much better than Diary Of The Dead (that POV angle thing was cliche even 10 years ago).

La Reencarnación de los Muertos (2009)

Sinopsis: Residentes de una isla luchan contra una epidemia de zombies y buscan la forma de revivir a su parientes muertos. Última entrega de la Saga Zombies de George A. Romero. Opinión:La Reencarnación de los Muertos (2009)

Sinopsis:

Residentes de una isla luchan contra una epidemia de zombies y buscan la forma de revivir a su parientes muertos.

Última entrega de la Saga Zombies de George A. Romero.

Opinión:

Parcialmente entretenida, pero es un completo desastre, decadencia total, es notorio que para esas alturas del partido Romero se quedó sin ideas e inspiración, pareciera que fue hecha a la rápida ya que carece de todo lo que tuvieron las demás, es una película de Zombies que ni a cine b llega, con toques forzados de comedia y pésimos efectos tanto especiales como de maquillaje y personajes completamente planos.

Valoración:

1.5 ⭐ de 5 ⭐… Expand

I'm a big Romero fan. It's hard to review his films without comparing them to the rest of his work anymore. That being said, this and "Dawn" are my two least favorite dead films. I'm never sure what to expect from a new Romero I'm a big Romero fan. It's hard to review his films without comparing them to the rest of his work anymore. That being said, this and "Dawn" are my two least favorite dead films. I'm never sure what to expect from a new Romero rehash, but this one is extremely over the top. It's about as close to an "Action hero" zombie flick as hes ever done. It's got more gore and slick kills than most, and there is so little continuity throughout the movie that I almost consider it a string of skits. Still, the gore is there, the thinly (and it's getting thinner) veiled social commentary, and, of course, it's funny. I was extremely happy with "Diary of the Dead" and consider it one of his better films. This does not compare. If you love Romero (and I do) you'll like this film. I just don't think you'll find it one of his best. And, taken on it's own merits, it's possible you won't like the film at all.… Expand

This feels like anyone could have made it. It was probably the only thing Romero could get funded, and he liked the idea, but the passion wasn't there. It's a bit cheap, slapdash and conventional -- a B-side.
