Re: GEORGE A. ROMERO'S DIARY OF THE DEAD coming to DVD 20/5 by Weinstein, why no pres


I saw it in a theater here in Birmingham... you actually won't lose much by not seeing it in a theater this time around. The premise is that it's a student film shot with a handheld, and most of it looks like one. Not knocking it necessarily—it was a good concept the first two times I saw it done (Blair Witch and Cloverfield).

What's really unfortunate is that Cloverfield was released ahead of Diary. Conceptually they're so close—even Romero himself has said that.

Bottom line though is that this film will actually be native to your TV monitor.
