OK, so the last two Romero zombie films (Land Of The Dead, then Diary Of The Dead) were pretty terrible, but I’m still willing to give him another chance. Judging by this trailer, he’s not doing anything mind-blowing in the originality stakes, but the characteristic dark humour is there, alongside the almost slapstick level of gore and mutilation.
Survival… continues the saga of a world fallen prey to the risen dead. An island off the American coast has been established as a safe haven against the relentless zombie horde. The intention is for humanity to rebuild itself, to prepare to retake the mainland if the zombies won’t simply ‘die’ of their own accord.
Not sure how the ‘they can walk underwater’ factor introduced in Land… will affect the outcome, but it’s safe to assume that not everything will go according to plan. Remember we’re talking about a film series where, without fail, humankind proves to be its own worst enemy.
