Stuck on an island off the U.S. east coast, two feuding families, the O'Flynn and Muldoon, survive against the rampant invasion zombies, despite some strategies somewhat different: to kill everything that looks like an undead or attempt to domesticate. After the umpteenth confrontation, O'Flynn was exiled on the continent. There he met a gang of mercenaries seeking peace (!) And now the merry band on the road to new adventures.
Romero endlessly pull the string zombie, for better (Night of the Living Dead, Zombie) or worse (Diary of the Dead) and unfortunately this new album leans dangerously towards stew. Resuce with a scenario more than an old Vichy pastille, characters without caricature and second degree and commissioning Directed desperately flat, Survival of the Dead boring. Few meters of intestine, brain exploded close up, eyes rolling and syncopated approach, as saying that Romero will revolutionize anything cinematically, substrate injects no political brief is the bare minimum (and even one day strike).
film that wants a theatrical release, Survival of the Dead hardly deserves a direct to DVD. Romero seems more and more like the shadow of the filmmaker that he was, in his own zombified filmography. We are still waiting the final burst.
