Diary of the Dead-Where will you be when the end begins?


A group of film students are filming a horror movie in the woods when they hear on the radio and news that the dead are coming back to life. Some don't believe this at first but they are all a little scared so they decide to go home to their families. But on the way the discover that everything they heard is true. Although they are all scared and worried about their families they decide to make a documentary about whats happening so that some people can use it to survive and so others will know what happened. But they must survive if they want their work to have meaning. But the question is can they hold together to survive or will the stress cause them to come to their end?

I found this movie alright. The special effects were alright. But to be honest i expect a lot more from one of the greatest directors of all time. But i found that what really brought this movie down was the quality of the acting. Half the time it was hard to believe they really felt fear. Also the storyline is pretty cheesy. Instead of trying to survive all this 20 year old guy wants to do is make a documentary. So i give this movie 4 out of 5 bloodstains (only because there is a real bad ass Amish farmer in it for a bit).
