Not bad, actually. It was one of the more suspenseful movies I've seen, I liked that.

The best summary of that movie is "Marginably less terrible than I thought." Somebody said that on the front page and I totally agree.

Don't you mean "Zombie Jenga"?

That's a fair assessment, it wasn't good, but at least it wasn't terrible. Another good point was that it would make a better miniseries than film, which I also agree with.

Like if they made it exactly like the book. The South Park episode was perfect.

I wanted to have a witty response to this, but it didn't happen.

I just wish they had called it something else since it bares absolutely no resemblance to the book of that title.

Could of been better. I haven't read the book yet (looking forward to it though) but regardless I found the movie to be lackluster and not all that interesting.

Now watch south park season 17 episode 3. It is relevant.

I'm reading the book right now and I've never encountered a book —> movie translation that stays less true to the original.

The common elements of both are: zombies + death.

I think the best part of the book was how they told the story through so many different characters you had to piece together what happened. The problem doing that to a movie is it would be too much like District 9. Great movie but that comparison would instantly be made add in that the american public has a 1 minute attention span and would be panned by most 13-20 year olds the movies main intended audience.
