Land of the Dead

I don't know why I go and see horror films. Probably because I have friends that enjoy them. The genres are also predictable enough that the variations become the points of interest. I like Zombie films mostly because I like "Shawn of the Dead" which fits into the Zombie genre despite the humor throughout. "Land of the Dead" is no "Shawn of the Dead", but it certainly fills the requirements of the genre. The film is set after the epidemic has passed allowing for a vision of the future with zombies. The scary thing about this film is that the Zombies are learning, becoming more like us, which fits the ultimate moral of any zombie film- who are the real monsters, us or them. There are some great one liners throughout- "we don't negotiate with terrorists," or "zombies, the creep me out man," but we are not waiting for the awards to role in. Oh, and if you like resolutions, too bad. The best you will get here is driving North, where its fucking cold and nobody lives.
