a movie reaction: NIGHT OF THE DEAD (Leben Tod), 2006


SYPNOSIS: dr. gabriel schreklich had discovered a serum that can resurrect the dead. but such living, comes with a price. once resurrected, they turn into flesh-eating ghouls. his wife & daughter were resurrected too, after being killed in a car accident. and they are being kept in a specialized hospital, together with the other "mistakes", while he is trying to make the perfect serum for resurrecting a dead without leaving any "ghoulish" characteristics. at the same time, a pregnant anais is not allowed to leave dr. schreklich's specialized hospital, where her husband is having a medical internship with his doctor uncle. however, the night becomes deadly as the ghouls have been set free....and they wanted more than being kept alive.

WHAT I THINK: bloody hell! ive seen a lot of psycho killing type movies but this one's definitely a MUST-SEE! its all about gore! there's the daughter eating her mother's brains out after she got alive again, the doctor opening up a cadaver for a procedure, and there's the...ok ok...enough of that....i got queasy watching the movie (but hey, i was sick & i was already feeling nauseated, LOL!) but the writer, eric foresberg, is superb! the movie was gross from the start till end. though the casts were raw in their performances, well, you wouldnt really notice it....
the end in the movie is a twist, you'll see...
BUT IF YOU ARE THE FAINT HEARTED TYPE OF PERSON, THIS IS NOT DEFINITELY A MOVIE TO WATCH. just giving out my warnings, ok?

QUOTABLE QUOTES: yep, im serious! i got one quote despite its gore & being gross...LOL! this was when dr. schreklich wife was leading a group hungry ghouls attacking her husband...

"you know what doctor? how will you really know how it is to be alive again when you do not have a taste of death?"

good point...
