Rebirth

Don't waste your time on this. I couldn't even stand the first few lines. Nauseating. Sorry.

HEY EVERBODY ITS ME, (4) and today we review ..... night of the living de ....???? Rebith of the living dead .....

SSOOOOO theres this whole thing about night of the living dead where its copyright is now up ...and its in public domain SO anyone can use the name and remake the movie etc .... so TONS of remakes and retellings and just out right films using the name etc have happened ...okay cool ...

SO this .....is one of those it seems .... only instead of barbara we have .....a gay dude ..... so i guess they are trying to bring the classic to a more modern PC era .... okay .... instead of becoming comatose however this guy just whines and cries and screams at everything ...so ....opositsies lol.... also ...annoying-isies ..... but its reall runs along the same basics as night of the living dead over all .... similar situations .... similar story .... similar characters ..... only some exagerations to them here or there ... like DR ANGRY BEARD lol..... taking the place of the angry dad from "night of" ....

being honest here i only watched about half way through before i started skipping around .... i realized .... "hey ive seen this before " and i just didnt want to waste another 45 minutes ....

from a technical standpoint ...everything seems pretty well done ... their lighting for a indie was on point ..the acting wasnt bad .... so good job ....

the FX were good EXCEPT the glowing eyes ?!?!?!!??!? Why ??????why did you feel that was needed ..... who was sitting there editing ....thinking ..and said " you knw what this needs .... REALLY terrible glowing eye FX , yea thats the ticket !!!" .... lol... NO shame on you ..and who ever greet lit it after seeing it ...slap your own hand ....shame on you as well .... the zombies would have been fine .....didnt need flashlight eyes .... like some kind of lo pan from big trouble in little china cos play tryhards ....

also the brothers in the beginning ...lol.. great omage to the original .... but jesus man ... casting the newest indie rapper "lil jonny" there ....lol.... bro ... your face got more tats than a biker rally ........ i hope your sound cloud career go good for you because man ..if it dont ..... jeez ...lol

so ...sorry gang but unoriginal gets you beat down ...underservingly though because you did a decent job BUT should have just called it for what it was ....rebirth of the living dead ....

3/10

EDIT: upon minor research ...... this is in fact a remake of the original night of the living dead and is also in fact being updated to a newer generation ... LOL ... wow ... i called it on accident .... so now how do i feel about my score is the question .....

It was too hard to take seriously when a guy keeps referring to another man his own age as "kid" and "child". This dude is at least 30 and everyone is treating him as if he is 10. Even consoling him when he sobs in fear, whining that he wants to go home. Not sure if he's supposed to be mentally handicapped and that's why? It was just funny to see and the zombies are hilariously bad with glowing eyes. The rev was a huge downer, not gonna lie, currently halfway through and can't wait for him to die. Didn't realize this was a remake, nor have I seen the original so not sure if it's supposed to be serious or funny. It's definitely funny and the acting isn't bad.

It's amazing just how clueless some people are and I say that with absolute derision because of all the nonsense in the reviews about groundbreaking commentary on government blah and racial and sexual prejudice. This movie is not new the themes in it aren't a daring and bold in any way because it's a shot for shot remake of 50 year old George Romero classic. Stupid stupid most likely millennials who believe the world began the moment they were born. This is the most famous Zombie movie of all time and the only thing that's different is the female lead is replaced by a man. Seriously what the hell is wrong with this group of humans that leads to such a huge gap in knowledge that they aren't aware of NOTLD. The age old "what's wrong with the youth of today" from the past is never been more true then right now. Stupid completely self centered spoiled brats. Movie if it was a completely new idea would be passable this is made a monstrosity by the lazy nature of ripping off the classic made worse by the morons who think this is a new idea.

I stumbled upon the 2020 movie "Rebirth" here in 2021, and with it being a zombie movie, of course I needed no persuasion to sit down and watch it. I should, however, perhaps have read the movie's synopsis prior to watching it.

Why? Well, "Rebirth" turned out to be a remake or reinvention of the classic George A. Romero's "Night of the Living Dead"; a movie that have been remade a couple of times already before. So this 2020 remake was fully and utterly unnecessary. Yet, I still sat through it.

I must say that "Rebirth" from writer and director Roger Conners was a bitter pill to swallow. First of all, the fact that it was a remake of a movie that had already been remade before was just pointless. And then Roger Conners went and opted to replace the Barbara character from the original movie with a gay guy named Adam. What? Seriously? Yeah, that was just utter rubbish. This whole political correctness that sweeps through Hollywood is just laughable.

Then there were the thing with the glowing eyes of the zombies. What was that all about? It just made no sense, and it just made the movie come off as being more rubbish and as a joke. It was so hard to take it serious with this. And the fact that the zombies were making growling noises that no human would be able to vocally produce just didn't help to sell the movie either.

The acting in the movie were sort of adequate, for the most parts. Mind you, you are not in for amazing performances here, nor will you see any Award winning performances in the midst of the performers here either.

Visually then the movie was sort of a swing and a miss. The majority of the zombie make-up and effects was just barely passable, so there wasn't much of any meat here for us gore fans, pardon the pun.

While I managed to sit through this ordeal, then "Rebirth" is a movie that came and went without as much as a groan or a bite. And it failed utterly to leave a lasting mark on the zombie genre at large. I am not going to be sitting down to watch "Rebirth" a second time, nor is it a movie that I would recommend any zombie fan to rush out and get their hands on.

My rating of "Rebirth" lands on a three out of ten stars. It was a completely unnecessary remake, and one that failed to deliver much of a bite at that.
