Day of the Dead (2008) is the worst zombie movie ever made.
Even worst than Redneck Zombies. There is nothing redeeming about it. Super human zombies that can climb walls, zombies that are highly flammable, heroes that shoot wildly and say corny ass action film lines, Nick Cannon acting like a bad-ass, etc. It's fucking horrible.

1. What the hell is the point of remaking a Romero flick anyway?

2. The original was easily the weakest of the trilogy...
... so I could see remaking it. But, this wasn't a remake. It was a giant shit put to film.

3. Yeah, I agree it was the weakest, but still...
If you're GOING to remake a movie, at the very least don't make a worse movie of it.

5. The other two had already been remade.
I don't think anyone is going to try to remake his other zombie movies. Especially, Land of the Dead. No one could polish that turd.

4. Has there ever been a good zombie movie?
I'm not aware of one.

6. Sir, you cut me to the quick. Perhaps a duel is in order.

10. Sorry, I had to ask.
The only zombie movie I found worth the two hours invested was the 2004 version of Dawn of the Dead.

8. The Sid Haig version of Night of the Living Dead (2006) is pretty awful
Not sure how it compares, exactly, but it's a super-stinker in its own right.
