Audience Member A movie so bad it's good! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member I bought this from my local dvd shop thinking that it would be a badly shot, terribly written, appallingly acted, gory, cult indie zombie film and thats exactly what it was, just plain awful.

Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Another failed attempt by John Russo to destroy Romero's legacy. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member There are some interesting ideas contained in Children of the Living Dead, but its sluggish pace, poor production values and atrocious acting resulted in one of the worst zombie films ever made. Full review at <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank"target="_blank" href="http://hotdogsinthedark.com/?p=5218">Hot Dogs in the Dark</a> Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Apparently a sequel to Night of the Living Dead by the guy who added new scenes to it, yet only the first few minutes actually seem like a sequel. After everybody killed the zombies in one county (besides one) the world seemed to have forgot it ever happened. For some reason the zombie that was left never did anything for years then started a small outbreak again. Even worst is that this zombie makes a horrible screeching sound. This film is no where like the orignal NOTLD and isn't a very good zombie film on it's own. The characters are bad, the time ellipses come out of nowhere, and the dialog was plain awful. It's a disgraceful sequel that takes Romero's zombies into the wrong direction. Plus, who thought it was a good idea that a murderer turned zombie would be more powerful than a regular zombie? There are so many things wrong with this film, but it has it's entertaining moments. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Read all reviews
