Day of the Dead

The latter won out!

Bad acting, higgledy-piggledy direction and the same old same old with not a lot new to bring to the table is a bit underwhelming.

I will say however that some of the zombie effects and gore are not too shabby for a Scifi Channel production so maybe there is hope?

Such a shame, as a big zombo fan this is rather disappointing!

Maybe it will get better as it goes along but I doubt it so can only give it 4 hatchets on the horror scale at present after the first episode but it is early days, however a pilot should grab the viewer and showcase its best values which this has done weakly -We shall see!

Painful to watch.

It's super slow, the actors are not convincing enough. Their reactions to things happening are not what you'd expect... Almost all men are dicks.

The producers of the show did not know if they want to make a zombie comedy or something with a "serious" tone - in the end we get a bad mix of both that does not work at all, on both levels. The dialogues are also all cliche in and too many times cringe worthy, same goes for the "humor". The only, a little redeeming feature of Day of the Dead are the masks and some little gore here and there. But that's simply not enough to spend my time on this show. Also, "Day of the Dead" has nothing to do with the story of Romero's Day of the Dead.

A bunch of young beautiful guys get saved by a some young beautiful women. From some zombies who look like the make up came from a dollar store. All the old people get killed by the zombies, so it just young peole for days. Yada yada yada.

When I started watching the opening scene, I thought to myself, 'this is so badly put together it must have been made in Toronto!' I was wrong though, it was made in Vancouver. Same difference.

Bad acting, bad direction, bad script writing, bad editing. Bad production values. This ones got it all folks. So if this follows the usual pattern it will run for four or five seasons of what at best can be called mediocrity.

Meanwhile, good shows which are engaging and well crafted get cancelled after a season or two.

Watched two episodes and gave up. Bad on so many levels. Cheaply produced, acted, wrote, and so is CGI/Make-up.

Weak and pointless. Feminists are the saviours once more.
