Night of the Living Dead: Darkest Dawn

Will it not has good has the original Night of living dead from 1968. This animated remake is pretty good. It is scary. It has a great story line. It also has great acting. This is scarier then A Nightmare on elm street. If you what to see a really scary movie. You should see this movie

This animation movie is very good, with good action and suspense; Tony Todd is the best and lead star role, the others roles are small whilst Tom Sizemore role is a cameo; in the cast also the Bollywood star Madhavan and Bill Moseley; Bill Moseley and Tony Todd reprises their roles as Johnny and Ben from the remake; nice to watch, the animation in very good and the action and also the suspense with action is good; if you like the films of this type it is a nice film; Running time is 60 minutes and the producer is the director of action movies high budget Simon West; Decent zombie movie, my vote for this animation flick is 8!

Honestly, if you're here reading reviews, your chances of actually liking this movie are probably going to drop... all I see is people bashing this movie left and right, and what's most frustrating is that it's all the same one or two superficial complaints so they give it a 3 star review...

Okay, yes the graphics look like a cut scene from a PlayStation 2 game. But so what? People played those games and didn't complain and turn them off because of it. For the last 20 years, video games have begun resembling long, interactive movies anyway, so just accept it and move on.. if you sit and dwell and focus on that the whole time, you're just going to make yourself hate it.

Chances are, those people complaining are fans of the Marvel movies or are going to see the new Mortal Kombat, and THOSE are the movies I just can't enjoy because of the CGI. Most of the movie, the heroes and villains on screen aren't the actor, it's some digital rendering of the character. And to me, that's literally one small step above having actual cartoons superimposed over real-life backgrounds. Like I just couldn't take the movie seriously anymore when I see Kano kicking and punching the air, trying to make it look realistic that he's fighting a computer generated 6 foot tall lizard creature that just doesn't look the least bit real.

The voice acting is way better than most of the serious animated movies/shows or video games I've seen bc these are actual actors rather than just voices actors. They just never sound natural to me... And the atmosphere was better than I expected. Even tho it's CG, it is still a film so the fact that they did well with tension, mood, scenery, "camera-angles", etc really added to it... it actually had me feeling tense and uneasy thru most of it.

And most importantly, what people tend to miss focusing on the superficial, is story. If all these scenes were translated exactly into a real life film, this would be an excellent "remake". I guess after getting accustomed to the movies released today, paying attention to story has kind of fallen into the background in favor of "action for the sake of action", mindless slapstick comedy, or simplistic jump scares... tropes without any actual thought behind them. Studios figure the best way to cater to everyone is to go as simple and shallow as possible so as not to "exclude" anyone... so we get our Wedding Crashers', John Wick's, and endless horror remakes without the original feeling and emotion behind them. George Romero had depth and meaning behind the story he told with the original NOTLD in 68, and thankfully, a lot of that is retained here.

Go into this focusing solely on the story being told, and use your imagination a bit like people had to do before the advent of computer special effects, I promise you will enjoy this.

After i read a couple of the reviews on this movie i decided to give it a try. Worst decision ever. Convinced those reviews were left by people that had a part of this horrible movie.

Had every horrible cliché of the zombie genre crammed into this short animated movie. Not joking, it literally had every cliché imaginable somehow jammed in.

You'd have more fun watching a "Let's Play" on YouTube of Left 4 Dead instead of this movie. The graphics would be 300x better if you did. If this was a class project of some college kids i'd give it a solid 8/10 but this had a budget of 800k?!?! Where was the money used!!? Avoid at all costs.

This would have been possibly impressive if it was fan made. A bunch of people, getting together and deciding to do yet another sequel/stand alone movie of the legendary series with what they could afford.

But it wasn't the case, the ones involved in the making of this production are important people and I would have expected more. The beginning of the movie is rather hard to swallow, as the graphic switches from color to color, to a lot of flashes and the close ups on the characters reveal the weak graphics used. Some may praise it I guess, I for one was seriously irritated by it.

The plot is not bad, of course, as common as possibly, I do believe that the series gave away its last coup of milk, I was actually kept there, in front of the screen but when it all ended, I felt more frustrated than anything. I won't recommend it unless you are a die fan of the series. I don't know what they wanted to prove. Yet again.

Cheers!
