There's a WMV-HD 720P trailer up at the official site. Unfortunately they had to take out the Dawn/Day images and audio (licensing?). But it looks gorgeous.

Consider the so called "condescension" killed.

Even if this trailer does turn out to be the final I think it's a good thing they're holding scenes back, anymore I feel like I've seen the whole movie already after watching some of these trailers. I'm dying to see the movie too but I can wait a month and a half.

I'm also curious to see what the poster is going to like for this one. I can't imagine this being a "big head" poster. The Dawn remake had a great poster so here's hoping it gets the right attention.

I'm with you on that..both the Dawn AND the Day posters were pretty damned cool.

I'd be surprised if the poster doesn't appear next week. The trailer seems to be getting good responses, I was downstairs checking on Amityville Horror (I put the trailer on there too) and after it ran through I heard a few people and they sounded pretty excited about it. Interestingly enough, I heard a few of the teens say it was a sequel to Dawn of the Dead, but they might have been talking about the remake.

 

[Robert Anthony]

They probably were. I honestly think that's why the trailer was cut as it was--to sort of play off Universal's earlier success with the Dawn remake.

To tell the truth, the trailer made me want to put in that remake and maybe Day of the Dead

Oh Yeah!
I'm a sucker for zombie flicks. Something about the dead mindlessly wandering towards people for the taste.

I just downloaded the HD trailer. I am excited. I was not too sure how his work would look today and I was very pleased with the look of the movie.

I have no problem with the use of his name and the history of the series in the trailer because most young audiences, sadly, don't know who he is. There have been several zombie movies the past few years and letting the youth know that the man who created the genre is putting out a new movie is fine with me.

Romero had no choice. Although he wanted to film in Pittsburgh, it was the studio's decision to film in Canada since they're bankrolling the film. Supposedly the cost was considerably cheaper there. But the funny thing is (I forgot where I read this), it ended up costing them more anyway. lol.

 

[Adam Portrais]

Maybe for you but it seems to have worked for the rest of us. And you can't deny that just a few posts later you started talking about how this trailer made you want to see the others on DVD again. Ah-ha! So the teaser DID work!

 

[Joe Karlosi]

I've been waiting for Romero to do this film for 20 years, but now that it's taken so long I've got to wonder whether it can still be potent? After all, we've been through so many repetitive imitations and knock-off's...

 

[Garrett Lundy]

Wow, Beautiful people, Marilyn Manson music, a tank, and lots of machine guns. I think I already saw this trailer when it was for the movie Resident Evil: Apocalypse. The movie had better be nothing like that, or else I might be forced to slit my wrists so I can come back as a zombie and eat George Romero.

 

[Matthew_Def]

Yea I mean trailers have always been indicative of exactly how the movie is.

PS there is new media out there, which gives is a glimpse of Savini as a familiar character.

 

[Shawn_KE]

Romero and Zombies.

What more do you need to know to go?

 

[Garrett Lundy]

I wonder if Goblin does the music?

 

[Matthew_Def]

No Goblin, Reinhold Heil & Johnny Klimek, are doing the music and apparantly Romero is really liking it.

 

[Travis W.]

Poster's out.



A month and a half to go...

 

[Travis_S]

That's one kick-ass poster
