since the day remake blows chunks...

[Choas]

It wasn't even a remake.It had nothing to do with the original Day.

[Mike70]

nope it sure didn't. it was sheer and utter name rape from beginning to end. the arguement that if this wasn't called "day of the dead" we'd all be more kind to it, falls on deaf ears as far as i am concerned. this movie simply blows donkey dongs on a number of levels and a name change wouldn't make me detest it any less.

I agree.

[MinionZombie]

I agree. Same here. Ghey08 by any other name is just as sh*te. Plain and simply, it's flat out awful.

...especially when compared with 'Day of the Dead 2'. I still can't believe the same people made this one. Yes, I agree that they name raped the title and it SHOULD have been called something else and they are trying to make money off of the title, but when you put this movie up against other $hitfest zombie movies out there, it was actually quite entertaining. I mean really guys, what would it take, for no one else to make a zombie movie and only our 'Lord and Savior of the zombie genre', George Romero, to do so? Isn't that kind of selfish and one-sided? It had great pacing, great effects and wonderful gore. The story was decent as well, at least it didn't involve a military hospital and some damn magic vial of pixel dust! As for the dvd cover, that literally blew chunks and I don't see how that would make anyone want to rent it. And hello... Nick Cannon was the comedic relief, he had some of the best f**king lines in the whole movie! Geez....!

[Mike70]

well i completely disagree dawg. the movie sucked - period. gore and action aside, it sucked. nick cannon comedy relief? i saw nothing funny whatsoever in that idiot's character. best lines in the movie? i wasn't aware that there were any good lines in the film at all. why must you fall back on this inane banter about a "lord and saviour?" that is simply untrue (at least in my case). lots of other people have made good/decent zombie movies, not just romero and many have been critical of romero's works.

i just watched this and i want a refund, it makes dawn 04 look like a oscar contender.

Well, as you are of a like-mind, perhaps you'll fancy reading my 127 reasons in 87 minutes why Ghey08 proper blows bitch list with a comedy twinge. (As found in this 'ere Dead Remakes forum, or on my blog where it be uncensored in all it's sweary blogginess).

In regards to those who think of Romero as the Alpha and Omega of zombie flicks, I didn't mean 'everyone' does and I know that many have complained about his work, especially the newer dead films he has made. But... there are many who do praise him as if nothing else matters. I simplify meant that it seems that everything seems to be $hit to most people, especially here. Tell me what was wrong with this film and I may agree with you a lot more than you may think. If you are merely stating it sucks because it was made by Taurus Entertainment and used the name, 'Day of the Dead', that would be a poor argument in my opinion. Yes, I love the man, Romero and his work. He does great work, great storytelling all around, even the newer ones. I did like the originals better, but he is still the greatest, but on the other hand I like other people's works as well, regardless if it was based off of his. I liked 'Day of the Dead' the remake, but not as much as the 'Dawn of the Dead' remake. I love the originals even better, ten-fold. If you want to see true $hit zombie films, there are many out there. It boils down to personal preference really. -Dawg

but he is still the greatest, He is?

[SRP76]

at least it didn't involve a military hospital and some damn magic vial of pixel dust! What movie had that crap in it?

[bd2999]

What movie had that crap in it? I believe he is referring to Day of the Dead 2: Contagium. Some vial in a thermus opened and alot of "virus" particles are seen flying through the air in such a way that they might as well be pixies from Peter Pan. They glow as I recall. Alot of strange stuff in that movie for sure. Lots of name rape going on.

[SRP76]

Thank you. If I hadn't known the name of the movie, I may have accidentally got the dvd and watched it. You may have saved my life. For some reason, I've never encountered it anywhere. I guess the distribution on that movie isn't all that widespread.

[MapMan]

I took a break to watch this pile. I knew when I saw the OVERSIZED military rank and the crappy military acting..I was going to waste precious moments in my life. I will say that it is a zombie movie and a crappy zombie flick is better than no zombie flick.

[MinionZombie]

There's crappy, and then there's plague-ridden sh*te ... Ghey08 is the latter. I'd rather have nothing in the area of space that Ghey08 has consumed.
