Land of the Dead (2005) (Blu-ray)
After zombies have taken over everything, a colorful group of "outlaws" hired by some post-apocalyptic entrepreneur must retrieve an expensive battle truck named Dead Reckoning.
Legendary Filmmaker George A. Romero's big shot at working for a major film studio (Universal) again, after the success of his Dawn of the Dead remake in 2004.
If anything, LOTD shines with excellent production values, a decent well-known cast, and expensive/gory/bloody CGI and practical effects. We also get to witness the evolution of the walking dead, but sadly Romero did not explored that any further in his follow up Diary of the Dead (2007) and Survival of the Dead (2009). Solid. 4/5
I was surprised how much I enjoyed LOTD because the idea of "modern" Romero doesn't sit well with me. A real classy effort in my book. The sight of Asia Argento is always a plus.
