What do we think?.

I quite enjoyed it. GSOH, reasonable characters, script was decent, not a particularly frightening film, but they rarely are. Ending wasn't to my liking. One of the better recent zombie flicks imo..

9.9/10 - best film evar??11.

Irony?

The fact that he got the fact that you were being ironic with your final statement tells me that it didn't infact go over his head.

The same to you it would seem

Seems like a pretty silly thread though

In all seriousness though, I thought it was a decent picture.

I did straight away felt tempted to quote myself and say "Irony?"

Probably one of the most dire zombie flicks i have ever had the misfortune of watching...id give it 4/10 and thats me being generous...it was quite simply a pile of steaming dog poo and i feel sorry for anyone who goes to watch it...honestly save yourself the money and then anguish of watching it...wait for it to come out on dvd lol.

I went last weekend and there were like 5 people other than me and my gf and this was a fri nite as well...so go figure, guess its not going to be any sort of box office smash hit

This is what's wrong with critics and reviewers of all types in all areas of media, if the film was that bad how the hell can you still be giving it a 4?

Edit: although numerical scoring systems are always stupid anyway so

It's a Zombie flick?

It's the best modern Horror remake I've ever watched, superb film. Some parts were quite ridiculous but so what, thats to be expected, it was just a wholly enjoyable experience. It wasn't that gory but it didn't need to be, it had a lot of suspense and tension and the direction was great with some nice shots and camera work.

9/10 for me, based on the fact that its a remake and pretty much all remakes are dire. This is the exception.

Sorry if it sounded like I was attacking your post, I really wasn't, it's just having to give numerical scores to stuff is a pet hate of mine. I mean what really differentiates a 4 from a 5? Or a 7 from an 8? It's all arbitrary.
