Amazon.co.uk Review
George A Romero continues his revival of his iconic zombie franchise with Diary Of The Dead, the fifth film in a series that kicked off back in 1968 with Night Of The Living Dead. And while his latest doesnt manage to match the heights of the earlier films, theres still something refreshing about watching a genuine master of the genre at work.

This one has heart
After the sterility of LAND OF THE DEAD, how heartening it is to see Romero give us something so much fun at such a late stage in his career.

Romero, the Godfather of the Zombie Movie, Does it again…
After hearing that this was crap compared to Cloverfield (2007) I had originally thought to leave this and wait till it was on terrestrial Television.
