damn thats a big bump, i hope they dont sacrafice alot of story for this, and forgive my ignorance but i take it this is the sequel to the dawn of the dead remake?

gls
no. not a sequel to the remake. that was a diff director. this is the sequel to the original films (dawn day and night of the (living) dead

MildPossession
This is the fourth ROMERO film!!!! the remake helped it get somewhere to getting made.

loserib
hells yeah my Pantys are all kinds of wet over this

gls
ummm ok... ~looks around~ ... What the f**k?

Zilverz
well if you read the other Land of the dead post .. you would have learned that romero stormed off set when he wanted to reshoot a few scenes to make them even better than they already were and he got static with financing .. but then they were like alright... and gave him more money ..


Day of the Dead was my absolute favorite. I think each installment got better and better... Day had a lot going for it .. because it had the absolute best Character developement including a zombie and tons of gore..

my hopes are high for Land of the Dead ...like ever other romero fan... btw .. i got a copy of the script in a word document if anyone wants to spoil the movie and read it ? i read a little of the intro and stopped because i didnt want to spoil the movie (:

send me a pm and ill email it

SithSpy
OHHH i see, I just assumed that it went with the remake bc in the end they were on what i saw as basically the land of the dead, could be cool though, am i the only one that thought dawn of the dead was the best when it comes to horror movie remakes?

WindDancer
Well, we gonna have to wait a little longer. This movie keeps getting better and better with the updates. Last I heard that guy from Shaun of the Dead was going to be a zombie. Looking forward to it.

Hey looser, don't you know that George A Romero has create more than 4 film???

By the way, i like George a romero, but i think with the stupid law we have in canada and USA, we will have a movie with a lot of CUT inside..

i hope it will not sucks live horror movie of today!

MildPossession
Excuse me, it was pretty obvious I meant the fourth in the DEAD trilogy. Not his actual fourth film overall.

If that looser was to me.

what stupid law?

BackFire
Supposedly they are going to have the trailer for LOTD attached to XXX: State of the Union, which is released this friday. So, if you want to see the trailer, be prepared to sit through a shitty movie.

Zilverz
Backfire i hope your reading this ... they went ahead and put the trailor online ... you can now watch it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the fawkin horde of zombies in the water looks tight as hell


http://movies.yahoo.com/feature/georgearomeroslandofthedead.html


dennis hopper is funny haha

BackFire
Holy shit, thanks so much for posting that Zilverz.

Damn, the zombies look ****ing awesome as hell, I can't wait for this one. I'm so excited about this movie, it's very possibly the most excited I've ever been for a theatrical release of a film.

And you're right on about the horde of zombies in the water, looks hella awesome.

BlackC@t
The movie looks awsome.

Would it be the most excited I've been for a theatrical release? Nope, that goes to Spider-Man 2 yes

MildPossession
Urgh, why did they have to use the music from Resident Evil movie in the trailer, apart from that, trailer looks great! can't wait.

zombiesnake7
Wow so much to see this summer. It might be the best summer movie season of my life. Star Wars, Batman Begins Fantastic Four, Undead and now this. Movie looks awesome. I love that Dennis Hopper is in it. also Asia Argeto looks cute as always. Weird to see a Romero movie with modern technology though. Sorta looks more like the Resident Evil films. This is okay though because I did like the Resident Evil films

Land of the Dead will be no where near craptastic as the RE films. I just hope it can atleast run parallel to Day of the Dead.. its a tough feat really..

gls
bad move to use the Residnet evil music...it just reminds me the other films.(which i enjoyed as well)
i will most likely see this film though. i hope its good.

TheRing
Does that mean that Australians still have to wait until the 1st of November? Because that is a massive Gap.

MildPossession
Think so, there has been no date change for Australia. I can't even find one of the UK, anyone?

TheRing
It says Here when its going be released in the UK but not sure how reliable it is though.

They must movie all the dates forward, it wouldn't make sense to bring forward one release date by that much and just leave the others half a year later.

Zilverz
This movie needs to hurry up and be released .. . i have had a nonstop 24hr erection since viewing the trailer

Zilverz
be sure to check out the new land of the dead pics that have just been released from romeros website

WindDancer
I was checking out some movie posters and found this kick ass one from LOTD:

papabeard
released in britain on July 29th 2005.

Factoid : Greg Nicotero who does the Zombie make up and special effects in this film got his break assisting Tom Savini on Day of the Dead in 1985.

Zilverz
1 Month and counting down

papabeard
Release dates should be synchronised around the world so everyone can see it at the same time, its shit when everyone on here is talking about a film and we in britain have to wait another month or possibly longer to see it.

Zilverz
well the reverse is also true sometimes ... movies like Shaun of the Dead or Undead are some recent examples were the US was like practically the last country to debut it

NadineCross
the new Date for the Land of the dead Australia release is the 4th of August. I have been writing to [email protected] to complain about this please do the same. Like the new Dawn movie if people email they might change it. EMAIL your hearts out.

There is also going to be a soundtrack!

MildPossession
If they release them all around the world at the same time it would cut down a % of film piracy also. The people who can't wait for it to be released in their country.

July 29th, not long to go then... be looking forwards to the date.

WindDancer

i read all the way up to "there is a few spoilers" i could not possibly go on from there ... sounds like an F'ng winner tho .. from the intro

BackFire
There aren't really any spoilers, just a few vague things, but nothing that gives away the plot or anything.

I hear at the end it turns out that Simon Baker is actually a ghost but he doesn't know it.

Seriously, I can't ****ing wait for this movie, I'm shitting myself for it, I've never been as excited for a film as I am for this one.

Jason_Krueger
I think is kick @ss that Romero kept this movie like his last three, slow moving zombies and buckets of gore. Thank god he didn't fall into mainstream modern zombie flicks and have crackhead runners, stupid humor, and little or less gore. And for that I tip my hat to him.

SithSpy
crackhead runners!!!! LMAO

i see what you mean tho' I think it adds to the scare factor that even tho the zombies move slow theyll still get you, you just cant get away. Plus thats a staple in most major horror, the killer moves slow as hell but still gets you

Neo_Version 7
Zombies are funny.

Simon for sure. Here's proof.

It would have been ****ing hilarious had he been wearing a white shirt with a tie.

SlipknoT
OMG! I want to see this movie so bad

MildPossession
Have to wait till 9th September here in the UK, you bastards!!!!

LousyBoy
Seen it already. U can read what i thought about it in thread titled, "Advance Screening of LoD"

papabeard
I heard it was to be released in the UK on July 29th, but another site says it is 05/08. anyone got a definitive answer?

MildPossession
IMDB says 9th Sept and the site is usually right when it comes to release dates.

There is no official rating yet for Land of the Dead yet either.

BackFire
I'm going to go see it tonight at the midnight showing! I can't wait!

papabeard
Baaaaaaaaaassssssssssssssstaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrr

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0418819/releaseinfo

Thats 3 different sources there so that pretty much confirms it 9th of September will be the release date in the UK, Why are we the last country to get it?

papabeard
We need to campaign, to get the release date in the UK brought forward, send e-mails to whoever is responsible, i dont know who is but i will find out, if any one has any info on how to do this post it here...............

gunsmiliegunsmiliegunsmilie

MildPossession
Yep 9th September is suppose to be the official date according to the BBFC. But they have yet to rate it, haven't seen it yet.

Jason_Krueger
I was all ready to see Land of the Dead tonight but because I took a vacation to Pennsylvania I am no longer able to see it......where I live in Florida our movie theater plays 16 movies but where I'm satying in PA there movie theater only plays 4 movies! all of which are not Land of the Dead!!!!! and the next nearest theater is 2 hrs away......talk about bum f**k nowhere. I didn't mind it when the theater didn't play High Tension on its opening weekend but now that they aren't playing Land of the Dead, we'll Im off to shoot up the town..........

papabeard
who is responsible for british release dates, we need to e-mail them to get them to bring the date forward, its 2.5 months after the us date, that is a f@cking outrage

Neo_Version 7
It just came out!!

How do you guys like it?!

papabeard
blowup

MildPossession
And it got a 15 certificate official here in the UK. Must be relaxing a lot in the gore department now here.

Luetchyboy
Is there a purpose to rating a movie a couple of months before its released, this leads me to believe they will move it forward a month or 2 hopefully.

Morning_Glory
has anyone seen this movie? how is it?

MildPossession
Well they rated Dark Water in June and that comes out here in July 22nd I think, and they have rated Land of the Dead in June too but the same people say it is probably released in September. So lets hope they are wrong...

Jason_Krueger
I'm going to drive 2 hrs today to see this movie......why you ask?......well why do Star War geeks flok by the thousands every time another movie comes out......

Deano
cine, backfire....you better be tellin the truth..cos if i watch this movie and i dont like it...then i'll have to hunt you down

BackFire
The movie's excellent IMO, it delivers on everything.

Also, the financial figures are out for the weekend box office, and the film made 10m. Seeing as the movie cost 15m to make, and it's only the the 3rd day of release, it looks like it will be a success.

Hopefully this means we can look forward to more Romero zombie films.

Zilverz
thats great to know ,.. and they dont even have sundays figures tied into that 10 million yet ... well you also have to consider marketing costs too. Altho LOTD didnt seem to get a lot of advertising so hopefully that figure is low. But reguardless its going to make a lot here in the US and Overseas ... then they will make a killing on the unrated dvd sales
