    This movie is garbage, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing.

    This movie is a bad movie. But it was made to be a bad movie. Lowell Mason, who produced this film, clearly has too much time on his hands. The music, when there is music, is cheesy, The plot is completely ridiculous, and to be honest, its a mockery of the original. Over all, this movie is a nonsensical waste of time. HOWEVER, for those of you who can see past this, who are into cult films, who enjoy bad obscure films, or simply if you have an hour to kill (the movie is longer than an hour, but it gets kinda old) this movie pretty hilarious. This movie definitely has its moments of pure random irrational comedy. For example, if you choose to see it, look for the duck, that kept me laughing for a very long time. Be warned though, you won't be able to sit through the whole thing. So if you liked Plan Nine From Outerspace, you'll love this. It sucks, and that's why we love it.

    Not quite worth sitting through, but almost.

    I'd been hearing about this movie for years and finally got the chance to see it recently. The idea is fantastic- take a classic horror movie, rip out the soundtrack and make your own parodying it. Unfortunately, the majority of the jokes made fall into one of two categories: racist or bowel-movement related, neither of which I find particularly funny. I wasn't expecting anything extraordinary, and certainly not anything classy, but there were much better jokes that could have been made given the opportunities available. They made what could have been awesome boring and mildly off-putting instead. That being said, there were several moments that were funny if not hilarious interspersed throughout, keeping me just entertained enough to keep watching.

    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
    9serenity5

    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.
