PLOT: In this 3-D chiller,
Barb and her brother John arrive late for the burial of their aunt and walk
straight into a nightmare. With zombies on her heels, Barb flees the cemetery
and is rescued by Ben, a local college student. The two seek refuge in the
nearby farmhouse of the Cooper family, where the laid-back aren’t remotely
prepared to have their lives turned into a horror movie. But Barb is destined
for an even grimmer confrontation – with the dark secret of the pyrophobic mortician, Gerald Tovar, Jr. THIS IS A NEW MOTION
PICTURE FILMED IN 3D THAT IS A RE-IMAGINING OF THE 1968 PUBLIC DOMAIN PICTURE
"NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD." GEORGE A. ROMERO IS NOT AFFILIATED IN ANY
WAY WITH THIS NEW FILM.
UGLY
MOLLY RATING:
Seven Brains
It is important to remember that this is NOT done by Romero and
try not to hold it to those standards when you watch this one. It must be
enjoyed for what it is. The Zombie effects of this movie are far better than
most of the low budget movies out there…At least this director has money to
spend and knew what to do with it. The zombies are well done and had a fairly
rotted look to them. While the overall acting could be cheesy, Sid Haig is
always fun to watch on the screen. The movie is taken indoors, so it gets that
scary claustrophobic feel, but it lost the opportunity to have some nice
background depth shots. If you do not try to compare it exactly to the
original, it is a very enjoyable movie. When you compare it to Swamp Zombies or
Dead Clowns, this is the zombie equivalent of the Mona Lisa.
Budget: $750,000
Gross: $215,300
