The Crazies (2010 Romero remake)

i usually loathe horror remakes, the only 2 good ones i can recall were Dawn of the Dead and Texas Chainsaw Massacre. this one looks to be pretty decent in terms of budget and acting. Timothy Olyphant has hopefully left his ego behind now that he hasn't become a big star, and the original was a severely underrated effort from George Romero my brother and i loved as kids.

i gotta throw in the original trailer because it's too hilarious

the originals great. i dont hold much hope for this.. the storyline is good so maybe they did some interesting things with it but FFS GET YOUR OWN IDEAS. all these remakes are a little annoying.

I love infection-movies but god damnit! It's that kid from Dexter! I hate his fucking hair.

EDIT:

...Mad World.

Mad World is over used indeed but the movie looks like it might be good. It seems a lot like that other movie were people killed them selfs. Can't remember what its called.

i didn't get much hope from the trailer, do kinda like timothy olyphant though

no desire to see this at all

I haven't seen the original . I've been meaning to see it for YEARS .

me too. I also hated the original.

I HEARD THAT IN THE ORIGINAL (ME NO SEEN) THE INFECTED SHOWED NO PHYSICAL SIGNS BUT IN THE REMAKE YOU CAN SPOT THEM A MILE OFF. THAT SEEMS QUITE A CHANGE INIT

going to see this now, any good?

The original looks good.

The new one I'll skip.
