How ’bout them zombie rabbits, George?

|

There’s this beaten-down weariness to Land of the Dead that’s unlike your typical gore-and-shuffle zombie movie, and -- even though this is Romero’s Big Hollywood Film -- it’s unlike anything that the typical big-budget splatter flick has going for it, either (but you see it in Cinderella Man -- picture Russell Crowe boxing zombies, and you’ve got it).

Click on over to FlickFilosopher.com to read the rest of my review of George A. Romero’s Land of the Dead. The film -- and my review -- has lots of GenX significance. Of course, I’m seeing GenX significance in a lot of stuff these days: I’ve got geek philosophy on the brain.

Mmmm, brain...
