Here is the trailer for this movie. I think it looks good but doubt I will see it in theaters. Also Mad World by Gary Jules is perfect for the trailer.

Not sure about this one. I will probably wait till I hear some reviews before dropping 1000 dollars on a trip to the movies.

Does the $1000 included the food that you buy there? That is why I try and wait until they are on dvd.

Didn't know what to think when I saw the trailer either, will probably wait for reviews.

I don't think it'll be that good, but I'll be happy if I'm wrong.

And everytime I hear Mad World, I think of Donnie Darko since that song was in that movie and in its trailer.

The hot doctor looks like the only redeeming quality.

I saw the preview on tv a little while ago. I thought it looked decent and then I heard the title. "The Crazies"...I'm not going to lie, it made me laugh because it sounds stupid.

That's a remake of a 70s (or so) Wes Craven movie, isn't it?

Not sure if I have interest. There's been a ton of remakes of old horror/slasher movies recently and the success rate seems really spotty.

I didn't know it was a remake, but yeah, they are pretty hit and miss on these flux of remakes. I loved the Dawn of the Dead remake, but Halloween 2 was god awful.

Next up.....Nightmare on Elm Street...featuring Michael Bay.

I'll probably check it out..

But yeah, Michael Bay needs to step away from the horror flicks.

I was interested as soon as I saw the trailor with the zombie walking in from center field of the baseball game. Will certainly give it a look.

Looks like a combo of The Happening, Halloween, and Dawn of the Dead

I don't know if I'll like it or not. Other than his zombie movies idk if I've ever like any of the other work done by Romero.
