Barb (Brianna Brown) and her brother Johnny (Ken Ward) are late attending the burial of their Aunt as they argue along the way but suddenly Johnny is nearly attacking by people that are no longer alive. In fact they seem dead so he speeds away leaving Barb on her own as she tries to go to a mortuary in which she encounters zombies eating other people and the owner there named Gerald Tovar (Side Haig) tells her to flee as it's not safe while he himself tries to control these zombies.
Later on she is rescued by a guy in a motorbike named Ben (Joshua DesRoches) whom is a local college student and takes her a farmhouse by a family named the Coopers as they aren't prepared for the worst to come thinking that what they're talking about is a myth.
Suddenly they are attacked by zombie's and one of the residents named Owen (Adam Chambers) has his arm bitten and is suffering in pain while their little girl Karen (Alynia Phillips) is missing while being outside and when they found her she is not the same at all.
Gerald goes to the farmhouse to wanr the family on what is all happening but has an evil dark secret of his own.

 

Remakes looked so much alike as the first remake of this film was pretty much like the first one with a different twist during towards the end but this one however is totally different. Yes there's the graveyard with the siblings and then the zombie's start to attack and one of them hides out in a farmhouse but however the farmhouse isn't abandoned and one of the heroes takes her there for safety.
It's also cool we have someone who is insane that takes the corpses from the mortuary and resurrects them so yes folks, this is a completely different story alltogether. It's funny showing one of the people living at the farmhouse watching the original Romero flick.
Plus, the dvd comes with 3D glasses but they don't work perfectly well and it's not 3D all the way through.
I give this film the most original remake and the same with My Bloody Valentine. It's corny but in a fun way and well done too.

The acting is somewhat descent and somewhat bad too. Lead actress Brianna Brown looked like that she graduated from modelling and is now trying to pursue an acting career showing very little characteristics and emotions to her part in it which I'm sure Judith O'Dea would not be impressed either seeing the role she portrayed in this one.
Joshua DesRoches
was so so with his performance playing the young hero in the film as he can pull off his aggressions okay but he's not superb in any way.
Greg Travis
played a good family man and had the perfect looks to run a farm along with some of his good charming attitude in the film so I found him to be the best actor in the film.
Sid Haig
was another great character actor usually portraying these crazy type roles in films showing great expressions and an insane attitude too. He just pulls this off in a terrific way.
Adam Chambers
seems to put humor to his part but doesn't make his character believeable by portraying himself as a pothead. Sorry dude.

There's a full named male zombie eating a preacher n the street.
Cristin Michele
is bare breasted in a barn during many takes in a barn and later on exposes her full naude body from top to bottom (Excpet in her boots) while getting up and running away.

We see a half cut zombie along with other gruesome looking one's.
There's bloody bite marks
A side of a woman's face in a truck is scarred
A shovel is stabbed in a zombie's face
Bloody gunshots in the zombie's heads
A person is gutted

Jeff Broadstreet seemed to be a little off key like with the argument between Brianna Brown and Ken Ward as siblings driving in their car to a graveyard.
Then we have an attack scene that involved Brown against some featured extras including Alan Gorg as a mourning zombie and her running away and screaming which looked totally cheesy and low on energy too.
There's also another moment with a dialogue between her and Sid Haig telling her to get away along with him battling a zombie which looked quite sloppy.
She also looked phony when she is sobbing scared sitting under a tree and leaving a message to her brother on her cell phone. But there's also a good moment with more featured extras as zombie's trying to attack her and then a great shot on Joshua DesRoches riding his motorbike in the mist and punching out a zombie.
There's a good shot on certain actors like supporting child actress Alynia Phillips staring outside in her house window with bit part actor Bill Quinn as a zombie cut in half crawling along the ground towards her and then a good shot on him leaping at her which looked nice and horrifying. We also have a good shot on the farmhouse with the extra's as zombie's walking towards the house just like in the original Romero flick.
A good reaction on Adam Chambers after being bitten on the arm reacting in pain.
There's a corny dialogue between supporting actors Max Williams and Cristin Michele in a barn fornicating with one another but it really starts to get intense with the extra's as zombie's invading the barn with Williams trying to fight them off and Michele screaming running away naked and trying to keep herself safe in a vehicle along with good shots on the extra's trying to reach for her.
We have a nice surprised reaction by Johanna Black after spotting a bloodied floor which looked good with the camera shots on it.
We have a good shot on Black running down the stairs looking frightened along with Regan Michelle Ellis as a zombie of Karen walking down the stairs with a perfect close up on her turning her head and biting Greg Travis' neck.
There's a great camera shot on Haig sitting in a chair in a living room showing guilty reactions with Travis scolding him about what he is doing on keeping his corpses.
There's a perfect reaction on Chambers lying on the couch acting sick and starting to act like he's biting DesRoches acting desperate with Haig warning about him turning and then a good shot on Chambers rising up behind DesRoches and ready to attack.
There's a good argumentative scene between DesRouches and Brown when she tells him about his habit to earn money as it looked natural. The setting looked great and dark near a dirt road and then we have a good shot behind a tree on a hill with two actors which was by Ward and bit part actress Marcia Ann Burns as zombie's slowly walking towards them and DesRouches really does well by losing it and yelling at them and then pointing a gun at them and starts firing along with a good close up shot on Ward and a nice shot on Brown covering her hand over her mouth and looking upset after discovering her brother resurrected into a zombie.
We have a scene with Haig whacking DesRouches with a shovel which didn't look believeable.
There's a terrific scene that involved Haig and Brown with bit part actor Brian LaRosa as a zombie father of Haig's with Haig acting insane about resurrecting the dead and Brown getting vengeful by ligthing her lighter yet she could've acted better with her actions but a great camera shot on the zombie in flames.
A good shot on Haig outside throwing a punch towards Brown.
There's a real disturbing moment with Haig dragging Brown down to a garage to get her turned into a zombie and he acts cheerful about it with her freaking out.
A great shot on the extra's as zombie's attacking Haig with Haig convincing that he brought them back to life.
There's also another great shot on Haig at a windshield smashing the window with insane expressions.

Jason Brandt is marvellous with his music for this film. There's some good screechy sounds for certain moments when the zombies attack as well as hearing the odd thumping moments too. Plus there's some good low trombone music too usually occuring when there's a serious dialogue happening. There's also some interesting hissing sounds and low moaning synthesizer playing too.
