    Love that line, badass

    Ehh, I'll watch the film and enjoy it, but I really don't think it's all that special. It's an entertaining flick and it screams 1980's just like you said, but it's never been anything more to me than that.

    Bottom line - Funny, entertaining flick that is good for a few occasional viewings but is nothing to write home about.

    That's my opinion on it. Come to think of it....I probably haven't seen it in about 5 years. Maybe I should check it out now after all this time has passed by...

    I would give it...hmm...probably a 6 out of 10.

    they first two were good, but i think rave to the grave if thats what its called is a signifier that its time to give up on a franchise.

    like any run with a title after the first one it starts to go down hill then there is that fine master piece that screams please make this the last one.
    its all about the Party.

    this series pales in comparison to the romero series. the gore lacks, the storylines lack, the hokie cornball characters go beyond 80's cheese.....i have I and II, but they rarely leave the shelf.

    I am 99.9% certain that GAR is on the record as saying he liked the film.

    The weird thing is that we really do not see anything if you listen to the commentary. They had to do some "work" so it do not to appear as "full frontal nudity".

    one thing that put me off ROTLD was the fact that 1 and 2 both had the same actors, playing similar characters and saying exactly the same lines in both films!

    that annoyed me

    Well it was generaly one big joke. It were infact same actors yes, but they played different characters, Joey and Ed. "This whole thing, feels like an dream, like we've done this before, you..me..them." and Ed gets an suprise look on his face.

    I have a love/hate relationship with part 2. I hated it initially for its wasted potential. I love it now because it is just a big mind-F of a flick.

    Part 3 has grown on me as well. I really dig the River Man character

    Part 4 & 5 were suprisingly watchable. I might actually pick up the official DVDs once they come out. They were good fun, like part 2 but a tad more serious.

    Yeah I feel the same. I just really gives it a watch for more brains and good ol' performance by my favourites Thom Mathews and James Karen, its a pity Clu Gulager(Burt Wilson) never go the part of Doc Mandel. Clu was infact interested in that part.

    I don't know about watchable, they're the biggest disappointments I've faced. Now if they were Resident Evil 3 & 4, I might have accepted them
