George A. Romero’s …Of The Dead Trailer
There’s an early promo trailer for George A. Romero’s next zombie flick floating around the web this morning, and apparently the title they have decided upon is now simply …Of The Dead. Kinda lame if you ask me, but whatever. The movie is a direct sequel to Diary of the Dead, with various survivors isolating themselves on an island in order to escape the zombie hordes. When one rebel is ousted from the island for being too trigger-happy, he gathers a small band of wanderers and returns, only to find “that the locals have chained the dead inside their homes, pretending to live ‘normal’ lives”. Weird… sounds like maybe Romero’s been watching Andrew Currie’s zombie satire Fido.
Anyway, you’d think at this point any new Romero zombie movie would have an automatic seal of quality on it, but after Diary of the Dead I don’t know anymore. That movie was pretty painful, and although this looks equally as low budget, I’m hoping it will be easier to enjoy without being weighed down by the whole documentary-style gimmick. Check out the trailer below and see what you think (but keep in mind, it is still pretty tough). …Of The Dead is scheduled for release sometime in 2009.

Wow.
The title sucks…looks low budget as all hell. Still haven’t seen Diary yet and might never catch it.
Never thought I wouldn’t care about a new Romero dead flick. Makes me sad.

Posted by KuaMovie on January 6th, 2009This is a sales trailer and not for public consumption, that’s why there is no title yet for the film and it’s basically raw footage without any proper sound design and film grading. And …Of The Dead is not the final title.
I couldn’t hear a word what people were saying in the trailer, the audio was so low.
