It wopuld be a pity... but I will manage to get a copy as soon as posible. Pure survival horror, decisions, what we gonna eat tomorrow, reinforcing barricades, another survivors, danger at every corner...

Que tal Peter?
Hola amigos del foro!
Vi tu artículo en Zombi.Blogia y me ha parecido espectacular la probada que nos diste!!!
Coincido que en el género ya se está llegando al hartazgo de balazos, exceso de tripas y trepidantes escenas cámara en hombro (por mí no hay ningún problema pues adoro el gore jejeje ) Pero si cabe, en mi más agria crítica hacia esos filmes, podría considerarlos como "Fanfics" o alusiones (la mayoría de las veces mal ejecutadas) del universo Romeriano, pero bueno, ya hacía falta una peli que nos arroje una visión diferente de la supervivencia apocalíptica zombi, o por ponerlo en otras palabras: el "how to" post-zombi-apocalíptico.
Bien, pues esperaremos con ansias la salida a las salas (o al mercado) de este filme, que ya le estamos depositando todas las expectativas posibles.
Un abrazo y seguimos en contacto.
P.D. El único detalle en contra que puedo divisar es el del cartel. El símbolo del "biohazard" ya fue explotado por la franquicia 28 days/weeks later. Parece que la tendencia sigue siendo un agente patógeno creado por el hombre lo que levanta a los cadáveres... en fin. _________________ It ain´t over ´til it´s OVER! |

Tienes razón en lo del símbolo. Es muy 28 días... _________________ Peter: Just rest, man. Save your strength.

I love a lot of my horror to be grounded in science the idea that the dead come back because hell is full is great symbolism, but I always like it being human made as we are the greatest horror inflicted upon earth. Alien diseases, parasites, chemical spills, giant genetically altered plants, nuclear faults, comet dust, solar flares, pesticides, gamma radiation, magnetic forces etc are some of my favourites  _________________ http://zombi-blogia.blogspot.co.uk/

Hell on Earth is allready done, of course. You only need to take the subway to go to work early in the morning...

Right on Pete!
Yeah father! The theory of the plot back in Night of... was a satellite or probe that orbited Venus atmosphere, for some reason, it was exposed to a strange "radiation" and when the probe re-entered to our planet, the radiation simply do its work... Cool! radiation always do the nasty work on sci-fi or horror comic/movies, isn´t it? jejeje

It is nearly always the trendy new science thing we don't understand in that time that causes the problem, Frankenstein - electricity, later radiation, and now genetics - this way we know a little of the science but not enough to blow holes in the story  _________________ http://zombi-blogia.blogspot.co.uk/

What if the internet, in special the emoticons, could turned you into a zombie flesh eater?  _________________ Peter: Just rest, man. Save your strength.

Internet plus the radiation of your monitor and voilá!! you turn into an Internet generated Zombie!!
I agree with you Father and in fact Peter got it right too. Before we knew exactly how a computer worked, they were considered "instruments of the devil" on movies (or something like that jaja) . Came to my memory the movie about a boy who can enter "misteriously" on a military net and "play" with real life nuclear missiles putting at risk the entire world peace.
All that back in the 80´s, when primal versions of the Internet were only military and University internal nets. I don´t remember exactly the model of the PC used by the boy but appears to me like an old good Atari console or a simple "Commodore" computer jajaja
Pong and Atari ruled the earth!

Due for release on 27/08/2007
Quote: |
In the early part of the 21st Century, an unknown virus began spreading among the populous. Within weeks it had engulfed the entire planet, from the smallest rural communities to the greatest cities. Upon the death of its host, the virus would reanimate the corpse until it was no longer able to support itself. Soon, the planet was infested with a new threat - the undead. So begins our journey into the dystopian world of The Zombie Diaries.
Three compelling video diaries chart the early days of the plague, right through to the last days of the apocalypse:
A documentary film crew travel to the countryside to make a movie about the virus. Unaware of what is happening around the country, the team is accidentally caught up in the outbreak. They later take shelter in a nearby wood, where a much more sinister fate awaits them.
A husband and wife escape London and pick up a mysterious hitchhiker as they scavenge the remnants of dead towns, unaware of the dangers that wait for them in the shadows.
A group of survivors flee to an old farm to seek refuge, only to find themselves under siege from creatures that attack in the dead of night.
Watch the devastation unfold through the eyes of those who were there... |

I love that film. InSpain was entitled "Juegos de guerra". The boy begins the film changing his academic expedient... or am I remembering "Save Ferris Bueller"...?

War Games
A young computer whizz kid accidentally connects into a top secret super-computer which has complete control over the U.S. nuclear arsenal. It challenges him to a game between America and Russia, and he innocently starts the countdown to World War 3. Can he convince the computer he wanted to play a game and not the real thing ?
and stars the same person as Ferris Bueller _________________ http://zombi-blogia.blogspot.co.uk/
