Review: Impossible to improve upon! One of the best transfers ever done.. - Pls Note, this review is for the DIVIMAX edition... The BLU-RAY x-fer was a joke not even close to the dts DIVIMAX.........I've gone back and viewed some of my favorite old horror flicks on some of the newer dvd formats and in most cases came away with just so so impressions, very good, but didnt really add anything to my initial thoughts or final impressions. Be advised this not a cut on early dvd releases as they all look about same. Using Romero's work as an example, the dvd release of "Night" really didn't add much except maybe clearer audio(I realize it was a low budget film)in fact it didn't seem as scary as the film or tv versions. Scary is a bad word for Romero, his flicks are more "tense" than scary, when he's not in humour or zombie-party mode that is. It seemed to miss the sort grainy at times dark(outside at night) and home-movie-like light scenes(opening graveyard)scenes present in the film. Same thing with "Dawn" added some better coloring but thats about it. Both are good to own in case u don't have a 35 or 16mm copy handy in that order. "Day" on the other hand, explodes on a whole new level and on every front! First of all it's the best Romero film made... the acting ,screenplay, no-name cast etc. impart totally believable apocalyptic and zombie realism. The stylized swearing and 800 lb gorilla line delivery are simply spectacular in this release! I could write a book on the subtleties of this flick but ill stick to the dvd. The coloring in both light and dark is just about as good as u can get. Even on a junk tv u'll think its hi-def. The audio was simply stunning.... since this movie is heavy on acting and less on zombie visuals the DTS decoding is PRECISE! None of the soft, hard to hear lines, then an explosion of sound thats totally out of whack with the flow of the scene! No No ,not with this; the audio is perfectly evened out as the director would want u to hear it. I swear my whole living room was shaking and echoing with no masking , distortion or improper overlays of the sounds in particular scenes, as the newly in command and extremely annoyed ,incredulous and pissed off Capt Rhodes issues his Shakesperian like verbal tirade to the pathetically liberal, ineffective ,insane and impaired scientific team under his new-command ....."any questions on how things are gonna run around here from now on?". It contained perfectly bright vivid color and happily was missing all the annoying over saturation u get on remade films. Facial detail is on the mark, not the too vivid and fake looking nor the mushy mess you usually see on dvds. The closeups and special effects,by the undisputed master Tom Savini, work very well and are,thankfully devoid of the new CGA horror style. I wonder why more flicks arent remade ,transferred is probably more correct, with this level of studio expertise. It even comes with the actual files of Dr Logan! No doubt detailing how "close" he is to discovering the cause and subsequent mastery LOL...of the zombies. The special feature are just that. Totally full length informative documentaries. An awesome DVD! Maybe the best all around for sound and visual stimulation. I wonder what a blu ray will look like it may not be as good, as it could inadvertantly and potentially remove some of the film like color... we shall see; But for now this is must have for Romero Trolls out there! Immediately throw away every other copy of this movie u own as soon as u get this one and due to the inclusion of Dr Logan's files it's sure to a collectors item, " is that food enough for ya!!!!"
Review: I'm running this monkey farm now, Frankenstein! - This is my favorite zombie flick of all time. This movie differs from the other Dead films in that it isn't about a group of people trying to survive. Instead it's a movie about a team of scientists trying to find a cure to the epidemic, but the military group assigned to assist them is wondering what exactly is going on since they're slowly dying off trying to protect the scientific team and themselves. There's no outside communication and any effort to find civilization ends in failure. With no outside communication and being left to fend for themselves, we slowly watch as two sides succumb to insanity and eventually destroying each other. The one character I absolutely loved in this film is Captain Rhodes. I don't think I ever seen another film that can capture the spirit of the character. Captain Rhodes is the only character in this entire film who made actual sense. The head scientists, Dr Logan, also known as Frankenstein for slicing up the zombie specimens wanted to train zombies in a manner similar to how one might train kids. We slowly learn that Dr Logan has a serious mental problem and his experiment is delusional but by that time it was too late for everyone to realize. Captain Rhodes allowed Dr Logan a benefit of a doubt in his experiment. Throughout the film we see Captain Rhodes becoming increasing agitated but the Captain wanted the experiment to proceed since the scientists are so sure of a solution. Right from the get go Captain Rhodes appears arrogant, cocky, and hard headed in terms of trying to get him to see the scientist's side of the problem. However, after watching the film a few times over the years what I accepted is that Captain Rhodes is always asking the right question which is: exactly what are the scientists doing? Throughout the movie Captain Rhodes gave the science team enough shadow of a doubt to allow them to progress and come out with a possible solution even though his men are increasingly frustrated. We see various meetings between the military and the scientists and in each interaction the scientists don’t really explain any sort of progress or offer any type of solution. Each interaction with each other turns up more questions and doubts until eventually their anger and frustration turns them against each other. I too always questioned exactly what the scientists intentions were. Not once did any side actually came up with anything remotely possible and even Dr Logan's trained zombie concept seem flawed in many ways. We also see the military men putting themselves in great danger as they capture specimens for the scientists and then days later having to do it all over without any indication of success from the last one they got. I would totally understand the frustration. I also think Captain Rhodes was the last senior officer in the rank. His closest NCO is Private Steel who doesn’t seem to take his job seriously. We see Captain trying to invoke discipline in the ranks in the first big interaction with between Sarah and the military men. So I think Captain Rhodes is at a major disadvantage because he’s in charge of men who might die for something he doesn’t get yet no one seems to be taking their duties seriously including the scientists and the low ranking military men. He doesn’t have any sort of discipline structure since he lost 5 men that probably included the senior most enlisted sergeant NCO ranks and the senior officers rank that included Major Cooper that we know for sure. Meanwhile on the science team side we see them losing ranks between Logan and Sarah who seem to have conflicting ideas on where to take the research. Sarah is trying to be traditional while Logan is trying to be practical since he knows even with a cure they can’t defeat the millions of zombies out there since they’re out numbered 400,000 to 1. So every group is broke but no one wants to cooperate or work towards a common goal. The thing I most dislike about this film is that at the end Captain Rhodes not only turned into a murderous buffoon but also a traitor and coward to his own men. He died in the most horrendous manner possible in the entire film. Not only that, he died from the very experiment that he allowed to continue with a smart zombie known as Bub. Throughout the entire film, Captain Rhodes did not kill a single zombie. He only killed unarmed scientists and killed his own men by abandoning them. Whenever I watch this movie, I secretly wish that Captain Rhodes turned out to be the hero. I honestly wish the could remake this film but instead change the point of the movie where Captain Rhodes turned into a complete idiot and got everyone killed. Overall a great movie to see Captain Rhodes interaction. I bought the collectors Blu Ray edition and wow, it is a major upgrade from my old dvd copy of the film. Absolutely love it. Now I only wish they released the Ultimate Edition of Dawn of the Dead on Blu Ray.
