    A horribly awful, wonderful classic re-visioning

    This movie is difficult to describe. It is best seen late at night (Very late) with a few drinks and many friends.

    It's a hilarious piece of movie ephemera. Be warned that there are multiple random 'interlude' scenes sliced into the movie, all of which are strange, only a few of which are funny. They add to the weird charm of the film, however.

    If you are easily offended or if you worship at the altar of the Night of the Living Dead as a masterpiece of film-making, it may not be the film for you.

    However, it's truly one of the silliest, most irreverent things I've ever seen.

    Basically, if you have the opportunity, you should watch this!

    "Good thing I caught that This Old House episode on zombie-proofing your home."

    Night of the Day of the Dawn of the Son of the Bride of the Return of the Revenge of the Terror of the Attack of the Evil, Mutant, Alien, Flesh Eating, Hellbound, Zombified Living Dead Part 2: In Shocking 2-D...geez, what a title. This is absolutely bizarre. That's all I have to say about this. George Romero's masterpiece of zombie horror, Night of the Living Dead, has never been seen quite like this. The filmmaker (if you can call him that) here has taken Romero's vision, wiped the soundtrack out, and re-dubbed the entire movie by himself...sound effects and all. But then, at random intervals, strange footage, songs, and jokes about former presidents and historical figures are placed in and I became completely stupefied. Some of the jokes work and some don't but it's still worth watching just to brag that you've seen it. As I understand it, this is one of the rarest videos ever. Good luck with the hunt.

    funny as hell

    i actually own this movie, and it is the funniest thing i have ever seen! it is kind of long, and monotonous towards the end, but Lowell Mason is hilarious throughout the entire movie. This movie was so popular at my high school, people were trying to rent it all the time. i know that in massachusetts a particular movie rental store has it....its definitely worth watching if you want a good laugh!

    Night of the Day of the Dawn of......: Really?!

    So the full title is Night of the Day of the Dawn of the Son of the Bride of the Return of the Revenge of the Terror of the Attack of the Evil, Mutant, Alien, Flesh Eating, Hellbound, Zombified Living Dead and is a particularly hard to get title.

    The reason for this, is it's extremely low budget, made by one chappy and is more than a little obscure.

    You ever noticed how Night Of The Living Dead seems to be on the TV in so many movies and TV shows? Thats because it's not copyrighted and therefore it's public domain, anyone can use it in their material without paying the creators (George Romero).

    This is just the movie with it's audio wiped clean and some guy doing his own audio complete with sound effects and music. This could have been funny, much like some comedy dubs you can find on Youtube but sadly this was made by someone with a childish purile and intellectually limited sense of humour.

    With the occasional intermissions which make absolutely no sense this is like presenting the Mona Lisa.................covered in monkey dung.

    Embarrassing, cringe inducing, not a laugh to be had and an insult to Romero's work.

    The Good:

    Its the Night Of The Living Dead

    The Bad:

    All the new audio is embarrassingly bad

    The intermissions are unfunny and pointless

    Things I learnt from this movie:

    Someone needs to copyright Night Of The Living Dead so hacks like this can't butcher it anymore

    Incredibly ridiculous, however it is funny

    Night of the Day of the Dawn of the Son of the Bride of the Return of the Revenge of the Terror of the Attack of the Evil, Mutant, Alien, Flesh Eating, Hellbound, Zombified Living Dead Part 2: In Shocking 2-D (that's the definite title) is quite the spoof. It looks like a cross between a Zombie movie, Naken Gun and something that would look like if me and my friends tried to make a spoof with a camcorder. It is sometimes confusing (where else are you going to see zombie action cut off by a documentary), however it is gleefully dumb and it works to it's advantage. The funniest thing of course is the new dialog placed in over the classic Night of the Living Dead action, however that isn't the only thing to look for. A-
