Since we got kicked in the nuts last time we posted the video, we'd like to send you over to the Fantastic Fest page for George A. Romero's Survival of the Dead as they are once again hosting the promo trailer for Romero's latest that involves inhabitants of an isolated island off the North American coast who find their relatives rising from the dead to eat their kin. The leaders of the island feud over whether or not to kill their reanimated relatives or preserve them in hopes of finding a cure. The film will have its world premiere at the "Midnight Madness" portion of TIFF before highlighting Fantastic Fest.

Yeah, that doesn't look very promising. Actually, it looks just as bad as Diary of the Dead. Diary was really, really bad. And this comes from a big Romero fan.

Wow that looked mediocre. I'll give it a try, but I think these films have run their course.

time to bust out dawn of the dead first thing when i wake up tomorrow to go back to when he was good at what he did.

Well, I like all of Romero's zombie movies but I'm sure that 5 zombie flicks are enough. It's gettin' boring.

Looks like the worst acting we have seen in any Romero Dead movie. Ugh. Quit please. Please Geroge, just quit.

Have to say I really liked the name the banded about briefly - Island of the Dead (had an Italian/Fulci feel about it), although I guess Land/Island ain't all that different, hence the change. However even '...of the Dead' is better than Survival! I didn't think Diary was great but it's not as bad as many would suggest, as a Romero apologist I'll be watching this one when it arrives in the UK.

AWESOME!!! I cant wait. I love ALL of the Romero zombie movies. I hate the remakes though, No one can do zombies like Romero, he is the best and it would'nt bother me to see him do five more.

Looks marginally better than 'Diary'. That's not saying much.

We horror fans need to make an intervention to Stop George from making more zombie movies. For me he lost his little spark back in the 80's.

blah blah blahhh blahhh. Halloween the best horror movie ever people say........ why? And why down Romero? If you were him youd be making movies still to the best of your ability and so what if he cant make one better than NOTLD or DOTD, you cant beat movies in the past doesnt mean you have to compare and destroy!

Can't wait, I loved diary. he's not just the starter of the whole zombi deal, but his movies are still always way better then the other zombi stuff. but I have to agree that maybe we've had enough zombi movies (not just from romero). I watched Creepshow again last weekend, and it would be great if Romero did something like that again.

I'm actually okay with this. Please don't give us another Land of the Dead though. God, I will never let that terrible movie in my house again.

I like Almost all of Romero's films.(season of the witch)WTF. and I have high hopes for this one..hope he knocks it out of the park.

showtime1976 his newer ones SUCK, and HE is killing the franchise, Dawn of the Dead beats em all. hell even the crappy Day of the Dead with nick cannon was better then what this is looking to be

Dawn of the Dead was his best outing, I think. But hell, I'll watch this one. At least it's something new, and not a shitty remake/reboot/sequal/prequal/etc etc.

Looking good.... I for one Liked Diary of the Dead...so this looks promising to.

You people love to whine dont you? George Romero pretty much invented the zombie genre as we know it today, what right does some prepubesent turd have to tell him to stop making movies? lets rember oen other thing hes a VERY old man now... Nature will stop him making movies soon enough...but until then how about you haters all shut the hell up and let the man do what he does best!

agreed...not looking promising

That movie looks like crap. Horrible acting and cinematography. It looks worse than Diary of the Dead. I don't see why people dislike Land of the Dead though. I liked it. It had good acting, blood, cinematography, as well as a good plot. It alluded to bourgeoisie and proletariats of our society just as Romero originally intended when creating the franchise.

I hope that Romero keeps pumping out zombie movies. I waited literally half my life between "Day" and "Land". Romero is not going to live forever - each one of these is a bonus that I thought would never happen. I wish that Carpenter would follow suit and return to what he does best as well.

i'll give it a chance. the only romero zombie that sucked in my opinion was Diary, and this looks better than that. this is a poorly made promo trailer, so hopefully the actual movie will be better
