GEORGE ROMERO REALLY HAD NOWHERE to take his zombie franchise after 2005's Land of the Dead -- but he made this year's Diary of the Dead anyway. Go to Full Review

[A] tad too self-conscious about the 'importance' of its 'message.' Go to Full Review

Social commentary is laid on so thick and often it becomes muddled. Go to Full Review

01/16/2016 A desperate man attempts to seize an opportunity to free himself from his overbearing and insufferable mother-in-law. Not only does he become a victim of his own inescapable cover up and deception but also discovers the torment of his mother in law extends from beyond the grave. Pretty good even if it lags at times with character actor Hector Elizondo showing well. See more 09/26/2011 What a piece of crap. The acting is so awful I couldn't even finish the movie.
