Land of the Dead / USA / 2005
What a welcome film this is, in what is becoming an era in which Hollywood is committed to reproducing horror films from the ’70s and ’80s. I’ll also say – with little hesitance – that this is George Romero’s best directed film—a near-flawless succession in his Dead series, and one of the best horror films in about as many years as it’s been since Day of the Dead.
My praise may be rushed and stifled by more viewings, but Land of the Dead is objectively a rare treat in cinema—a return-to-form (or re-emergence) of a genre master. If only the same could be said for Dario Argento.
