Oh man, I am excited right now. Like, twitching in my chair excited. Why is that, you might be asking? Well, it’s simple. The sales trailer for George A. Romero’s Survival of the Dead has been leaked online! I think the last time I was this excited was when I actually met George Romero.
The best part is that it looks good. Like, it looks like a legitimate zombie movie in the spirit of Night of the Living Dead, Dawn of the Dead, Day of the Dead, and Land of the Dead, rather than a mockumentary like Diary of the Dead. Whether or not it’s actually that is anyone’s guess, but the trailer certainly give me all I could want and more when it comes to zombie stabbings, zombie shootings, zombie brain-smashings, and general mangling and mayhem.
I may have been one of the only folks not disappointed by Land of the Dead, the last of Romero’s movie-style Dead series films. Yes, it was more an action movie than anything else, but it was a fun action movie! Dead Reckoning was a very cool vehicle, and Dennis Hopper was lots of fun. It’s great to see the zombie master back at work in the genre he created.
