To the extent that you, the potential Amazon.com customer, only reads the first couple of reviews before spending your hard-earned dollars, let me tell you something about this movie (at least until I am sent to the back of the reviewing line).
This is NOT Night of the Living Dead.
George Romero had nothing to do with this version. Instead, some of the folks who were involved with the original NoTLD (primarily John Russo) decided that it would be a fine idea to remove key footage -- whole chunks -- from the original, because there was a lot of talking and talking is kind of boring, right? They decided to jettison the ending and add some ridiculous subplot about a crazy preacher, because hey, shouldn't the original NoTLD have had a crazy preacher?
Then, with all of these freed-up minutes at their disposal, John and Company decided to shoot some new footage, add some new plotlines, and completely deviate from the original. Never mind that the acting is bad, the writing is bad and that the new scenes are incomprehensible.
Then, because they were on quite a roll, they decided to add a new goth score to the movie. You know, to jazz it up. Make it hip for the kids today.
This would all be very funny if those involved were not so serious and deluded. This is a money-grubbing act, pure and simple, and shows no respect for the artistry in Romero's film. If you must have it (for laughs, for curiosity), try to find it used.
If you can find the Elite DVD Special Edition of NoTLD -- buy it. Elite knows how to do these things and the version contains a pristine transfer of the original NoTLD. It is well worth your money.
Russo's concoction is simply unacceptable and he should be sentenced to a life of watching "Patch Adams" for his crimes against the moviegoing public.
