Diary Of The Dead (2007) 8/10

Starring : Joshua Close, Philip Riccio, Michelle Morgan, Shawn Roberts, Amy Lalonde, Joe Dinicol, Scott Wentworth
Director : George A Romero
Running Time : 92 mins

A group of young aspiring film makers find themselves all alone in the woods following the news of a zombie outbreak. As they travel into town to try to find out what's happening, they document the facts with their video equipment, in the hope of making names for themselves with their story.

Like the previous Dead movies, this instalment latches onto the current craze of blogging and home movie making to express the horror of it's zombie world. The acting isn't anything special, but once again Romero manages to stretch his zombie tale into another great little vignette that both capture the current feel of society and also comment on the inherent problems it encapsulates.
