Movie Trailer: George Romero’s Diary of the Dead

George Romero’s “Diary of the Dead” is apparently so good, and has gotten such great feedback, that Romero is already hard at work on a sequel. Mind you, this is before the movie has even been released, and this is only the first time we’ve seen the film’s trailer. Speaking of which, head on below to see the trailer for “Diary of the Dead”.
A group of young film students run into real-life zombies while filming a horror movie of their own.
I’m not sure how long the whole “shot from a camera’s POV” gag goes on in the film, but boy, it sure sounds a lot like the British zombie movie “The Zombie Diaries”. Then again, this is George Romero, the Godfather of zombie movies, so I’m going to give him the benefit of the doubt.

Well, I love Romero and love his dead movies, especially “Dawn of the Dead,” but where does this one belong? Is it apart of his “Living Dead” universe? In any event, it does look pretty good, although I’d love to see Romero take on vampires and/or werewolves for once.

I heard that it takes plac the same time as “Night of the Living Dead” but from a different point. But it doesnt look like it takes place in the 60’s. So im not really sure.

I can’t say one way or the other, but from what I can tell, it seems to be a kind of parallel telling of the same story.
