The Crazies

[mclz]

This movie looks, dare I say, crazy.

But seriously, I'm probably gonna see it this weekend. RT.com has it at an 80% so far.

I'm interested in it. A friend was telling me about it, and how its about how people go crazy before they die from virus outbreak (aka before they become a zombie). If thats what it actually is (i've seen zero advertising here for it) i'll see it.

I'm really excited about this. I've heard it's kind of bland though. I hope that's not the case.

WE SHALL SEE.

[wakeupandlive]

taking the man-friend to see this. i don't do scary movies so well.

[adamlikesmusic]

From what I've heard of the plot, it's kind of "eh". But don't get me wrong, I'll be seeing it.

I loved the original, and was pretty curious when it was announced that a remake was happening. I like Timothy Olyphant, and I figure this will end up being a fun movie to watch at the least.

[Fartcat]

I doubt it will be as good as the original, but still pretty pumped for it.

Sheriff Bullock is in this? Damn...maybe I ought to check it out. But only if his character is in a near-constant state of seething fucking rage.

I am pretty stoked on this movie. I am truly hoping for a good Romero flick before he croaks.

[benchwarmer]

This movie looks pretty cool. I like the zombie/28 days later vibe. Didn't know this was a remake, will have to check out the original.

[swaty327]

The previews remind me of the Dawn of the Dead remake, so I'll be seeing it.

[Fartcat]

The original is a real campy 60's flick, but hella good

I remember seeing the trailer for this movie on rotten tomatoes like 4 months ago (if not longer) and it looked decent back then. I was a little hesitant after I discovered the director did the movie Sahara (w/ Matthew McConaughey, Penélope Cruz & Steve Zahn) but all seems to be well give that it's got a 70%+ rating on RT. I plan on seeing it this evening with the lady and her work friends.

[awesomemodeon]

it looks sweet. but is it wrong that i almost didn't want to go see it just because i thought the name was goofy? ha

[phantommaggot]

Saw this on Friday. I have never seen the original but it was pretty good. That pitchfork scene was intense.

[booyahachieved]

2.5/5.0

- Too many of the "scary" scenes were already ruined by the trailers they had released

- Not enough infected/zombies running a muck

- Required me to suspend my disbelief entirely too much

[nickj]

i really wanted to see this based on the teaser. once i tracked down the full trailer i decided i only wanted to see the original. the remake just doesnt seem memorable

[jurrobear]

I doubt it will be as good as the original, but still pretty pumped for it.

I saw it lastnite, good movie. the pitchfork scene was intense. the best part was the knife scene with the crazy mom and son.

[steventangent]

Agreed on the knife scene. Holy shit. That was awesome. I may have actually said "whoa" out loud.

Also agreed that the pitchfork scene was intense.

I thought it was a really good movie, for what it was. It's one of those things where, you either see the trailer and think, "that could be good," or you see it and think, "oh, another one of these." For the type of movie it is, I thought it was pretty good. Nothing mindblowing, but an interesting and entertaining 1:40.

[steventangent]

Also, when they were looking for the plane crash and the redneck dude made the crack about Bullock shooting him, who else was hoping he'd crack the dude in the fucking face and knock him in the water?

[steviex2shoes]

Saw this last night all the aforementioned scenes were pretty sweet. I thought overall the movie was pretty good, I'd recommend it to people who like this kind of movie.
