Capote: B+ »
It's ironic that director George Romero's return to zombies will probably be the final staggering lurch of this genre's recent revival. If Romero's movies actually share the same continuity, Land of the Dead seems to take place much later on during the zombie apocalypse. The survivors have learned to live with their zombie peers by safely cordoning themselves off within a well-guarded city and the zombies themselves have begun to evolve into creatures that think and make decisions. Though an interesting concept it's not very exciting. By setting itself too far into the aftermath it sucks out all of the terrifying chaos that comes along with a good zombie outbreak.
