Review: Diary Of The Dead

For those who had clicked on the trailer above and found it : Hmm, seems interesting to watch huh...YOU ARE FUCKING WRONG.

During the X'mas, my frens and I watched it in 1U. Among all the movies, we pointed to this, as 1)The show time is suitable for us. 2)The tickets are available. 3)The poster looks scary. 4)It is 18SG.

So, we watched this. And it turned out to be a disasterous movie : disaster to the history of the filem, disaster to our dizzy head, disaster to our empty wallet, and disaster to our precious time... I can tell that I'm a easy satisfier. For the life sentence of my 18 years time, I can easily get entertainment by whatever movie I watched. Though some maybe quite boring, but still, there's some part or maybe a particular actor/ actress that can make me feel that: At least XXX had humor me, ok la...

And this? So sorry to tell. Nothing. Let me start with the whole movie (it's a insult to other well made movie, to use the term "movie" on this 1 and 45 mins video clips. Anyway, try to bear with it.)

The movie started abruptly...or maybe is the intent of the director? Whatever. A stupid female reporter dead on the scene, because she couldn't put on her stupid leg and run from the stumbling zombie, which wake up suddenly and walk to her. She dead also because her working partner who are so devote his mind to his job as a cameraman, couldn't put down his stupid camera and help to fight the zombie. Then, the cameraman still have the mood to post the video clip on the internet, and the hero of this movie found this clip. So, the movie begins...SUCKS.

I couldn't understand why all the dead people can suddenly wake up, and I keep wait and wait, hoping that in the end, the stupid groups who are making their sudden escape can give me a clue on why such lame thing happened. For the period I've waited, I was so dizzy at the same time. The director reminds his audience again and again that the movie is uneditted, in its original shape...whatever he can say to make you feel that you are watching a real-time recording. So, he even explained what type of video camera used in this movie, how caring he was.

Yes, video camera. This is the annoying part. If you have problem with the shaking camera moving around from the beginning till the end, don't watch this. You will vomit BADLY. Even though this is a way to make it looks raw, but wonder why this director can make it looks so stupid. At the very beginning, I already feel irritated by watching the zombie and the people running here and there, wandering around and doing nothing. The hero still want to use his stupid and he-think-it's-intense voice to interview the people inside the stupid van to say their name out and why there are here. Okay. Final Destination style huh? It make me feel there must be something to do with the interviewing part: maybe in the end, it can be used to rescue someone or what. But obviously, the interview part just for fun. In the end, there's no ending.

YES. I mean it. No ending. WHAT THE FUCK??? The movie ended abruptly with a stupid movie clip downloaded by the hero on the internet, with no hidden meaning in it and nothing was explained at all. Though the heroin once say she want to continue her bf's bogus wish to continue with the movie, but with the zombie all over the country and no solution at all on how to rescue herself, how she got the fucking time to edit the fucking movie, add some utterly shit sound effects to it in order to scare us, as what she mentioned in the very beginning of the movie??? And with all the zombie running into the house and no one is going to survive later on, how is this grandness movie clip that her bf made by killing himself is going to sent to show on the big screen and cheat our time and money???

Anyway, I did learn something from this movie.

1. When people dead, you must break the corpse's head in order to prevent it from transform into a zombie.

2. Do not believe what you see in the news on tv. Things are worse than that being reported. (When they say one citizen in town is dead, means the whole city are dead.)

3.Beware of homo-sapiens-like creature who has slow locomotion ability, they may be ZOMBIE.

4. Do not watch movie that never get propagandize and only on the big screen on a few cinema. They are sure to be bad movies.

Rating: 1/10
