I actually managed to sit through it twice! But honestly, I had to bail on the second attempt after just 20 minutes... It’s definitely a one-and-done kind of movie. You really have to stick to the first viewing if you want the full experience, otherwise, what's the point?
Haha, look, there are definitely some decent scenes in there, but man, the acting is just painful... absolute coma territory! They were actually supposed to follow it up with a third installment, but they pulled the plug entirely because the ratings for the second one were such a total disaster. 😬
There’s actually an original Romerov version out there—this one we’re discussing is just a remake—and then you have Day of the Dead 2. Personally? I think that movie is a total disaster. I’ve got it on my hard drive, and while it’s certainly worth a watch if you're bored, I wouldn't recommend sitting through it more than once! 🙂
Don't forget, there is also Candyman 3: Day of the Dead. There isn't any actual 3D involved in that one, though I know they did film Night of the Living Dead 3D
The movie actually wasn't bad at all! To be honest, seeing it on the big screen really caught me off guard—it ended up becoming one of my absolute favorites in the whole zombie genre.😬
crimsonmoose3 said:Yeah, they're telling you. But what happens if they decide against a remake? And how can there be a sequel if they're already filming a third installment? 🤔
Oh, I see 😬!
It’s a full-on remake, but word on the street is it might be more like how the original Dawn and its remake turned out—meaning it probably won't stick to the original script one bit.
But hey, that's just speculation from some forums I was browsing. At the end of the day, they should just do whatever they want, as long as the final product turns out great, right?
So, word on the street is that the "remake" of Creepshow isn't actually going to be a remake at all! If that's true, we might be looking at a release around 2008, right? What do you guys think?
It’s a solid film, honestly! I enjoyed it, though I can't help but feel like it's missing just a few key ingredients to truly earn that "cult classic" status. Don't you think? It almost gets there, but it just needs that extra bit of magic to become an all-time legend!
darksurfer26 said:They’re remaking a movie that’s already ten years old? What’s next, a remake of Hostel or 28 Days Later in a year? Everyone just wants to cash in on Romero's classics, doesn't it? Tsk, tsk, tsk. Honestly, I have a gut feeling this movie is going to suck big time, though deep down, I truly hope I'm wrong. We'll see...
Wait, isn't Day of the Dead from 1985? Or are you talking about NotLD 3 D?
I actually stumbled upon something online saying that Universal put Dawn of the Dead 2 into pre-production, and the director is supposedly Zack Snyder (DotD 2004). Apparently, Snyder was dying to make a sequel, even though Universal Pictures offered him a chance to do Day of the Dead instead—which he politely turned down! Because they were so impressed by his first hit and the massive box office numbers, Universal decided to move forward with a second installment that won't be a remake of any existing film. Zack says the scripts for both the second and third parts are already finished. There hasn't been anything posted on IMDb yet, though.
What are these fools thinking, doing a day remake AND Dawn 2 at the same time?
So, I was browsing around online, and apparently, the studio hasn't completely ruled out the possibility of Snyder coming on board as a co-director! Even though he mentioned he isn't exactly itching to jump into another remake, but rather wants to take a swing at making a brand new Dawn of the Dead 2.
Wouldn't it be absolutely incredible if they actually stuck to the original script? 😬
Charles White16 said:It should turn out to be a high-quality production. I was actually starting to worry there wouldn't be any more films in The Dead franchise!
No way, no way, they just keep coming!
I just saw that they even made NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD 3D
But hey, I'm right there with you—fingers crossed that D-Day turns out great!
