The gore is there from the start and if anything i'd say there's perhaps more gore than any of the other films. From arm and neck biting to entrails being ripped from bodies to shotgun blasts to the head. Maybe it's simply a case of there being better detail and colours in HD, i don't know, but this did seem an altogether more graphic affair than the directors cut dvd i have.
I still think Land of the Dead is Romero's most entertaining zombie film. |
TBH, even though that this got a theatrical release, I always thought that this felt like a bigger budget straight to DVD type sequel along with Diary Of The Dead and Survival Of The Dead.
It's like when a band would release a new Album after releasing a Greatest Hits Album.
Even though it's a good Film, I never really thought of it has a sequel to the original 3.
But that's my opinion
