    Town of the Living Dead, though entertaining, does not feel at all real.

    Town of the Living Dead feels far too planned when it comes to its cast of characters and knowing one-liners.

    What this benign, not-all-that-colorful sojourn to Alabama unleashes feels a lot closer to a pastel drip than a crimson tide.
