646f9e108c A group of survivors trapped in a New York apartment fight to stay alive against legions of zombies. This would have been possibly impressive if it was fan made. A bunch of people, getting together and deciding to do yet another sequel/stand alone movie of the legendary series with what they could afford. <br/><br/>But it wasn&#39;t the case, the ones involved in the making of this production are important people and I would have expected more. The beginning of the movie is rather hard to swallow,the graphic switches from color to color, to a lot of flashes and the close ups on the characters reveal the weak graphics used. Some may praise it I guess, I for one was seriously irritated by it.<br/><br/>The plot is not bad, of course,commonpossibly, I do believe that the series gave away its last coup of milk, I was actually kept there, in front of the screen but when it all ended, I felt more frustrated than anything. I won&#39;t recommend it unless you are a die fan of the series. I don&#39;t know what they wanted to prove. Yet again.<br/><br/>Cheers! The dead have come back to life and a group of survivors take shelter in a city apartment building. <br/><br/>I must admit was was really looking forward to the retelling of a classic, Night of the Living Dead: Darkest Dawn, (formally Night of the Living Dead: Origins) especially given the horror talent involved. Directed by Krisztian Majdik, Zebediah De Soto their animated CGI effort echoes the likes of the Resident Evil Damnation and Resident Evil: Degeneration but visually doesn&#39;t meet their standard.<br/><br/>What it lacks with the video game like presentation it makes up for with its great voice characterisations. There&#39;s the talent and eerie animated likeness of horror favourites Tony Todd, Bill Moseley (both reprising their characters from the 1990 remake) , Danielle Harris (Halloween IV &amp; V), Joseph Pilato (Day of the Dead) and character actor Tom Sizemore (Saving Private Ryan).<br/><br/>Following the 1968&#39;s narrative there&#39;s a few interesting story tweaks that are welcomed on the refreshing contemporary city set backdrop. With countless rip offs and cash-ins already made, fans who like original may be pleased,this is arguably one of the better adaptations since Savini&#39;s 1990 remake. <br/><br/>While the visual graphic aesthetics aren&#39;t too hot, quite frankly a little disappointing (and another remake is debatably unnecessary) the voice work and story changes make it worth a viewing. For zombie completist fans.
