It seems like they aren't even going for scary. If it's all like this, I expect it to be a viewing experience further from the original then even most unrelated zombie films.
It all reminds me of that scene from 'Batman' where the Joker and his gang are painting clown faces on all the art in the museum. At first you are taken back, 'my god they defiled the artwork'... but after you see it done to every single piece of work... you almost have to appreciate the deranged commitment of the Joker and his gang.
