Synopsis

Night of the Living Dead: REANIMATED features the work of various artists, animators, and filmmakers from around the globe. The mixed media featured include puppetry, CGI, hand-drawn animation, illustration, acrylics, claymation, and even 'animated' tattoos, just to name a few. This mass-collaboration approach is less about remaking Romero's film and more about viewing the classic through an experimental lens. Instead of trying to alter Image Ten's work, NOTLD:R seeks to showcase the responses that artists from around the world have had to this landmark film.

Intcatinfo A Masterpiece!
Nessieldwi Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.
Portia Hilton Blistering performances.
jacobjohntaylor1 Taking about making something scary look very ridiculous. They keeping go back and fourth with definite styles of animation. Play the soundtrack from the original. Cartoon mice are in this movie. So are puppets. There is ever footage from the original with weird images flying around there heads. Come on this is not a 4.6 it is just overrating it. I give this 4 out 10. Because it is pointless movie. Do not bother with it and just see the original. It is one of the scariest movies made in the 60's. And this does nothing for it. I wasted my time with this believe me. Do not wast your time with this. Do not send money on this. It is a rip off.
MoiN Anjum I will keep it very short.It's not the animation that an average joe like.. As the plot summary says"The mixed media featured include puppetry, CGI, hand-drawn animation, illustration, acrylics, claymation, and even 'animated' tattoos, just to name a few"To be honest, I had an headache after watching this one.. too much mixture of everything.. and now I can't sleep :(Do watch it's trailer if you're planning to see this, the "Artistic" people might like it.
udar55 I don't know what it is about George Romero's NOTLD, but I always feel compelled to watch any variation of it. I've seen the colorized version, the Savini remake, the 3-D Sid Haig remake, and even that 30th anniversary version with new footage by John "Paycheck" Russo. It is a film I am infinitely familiar with, so this new take on it sounded rather interesting. Basically, artists from all over the globe offered their (free) services to animate the original film beginning to end with tons of different styles. You end up with a final product that reminds me of the great early 90s MTV series LIQUID TELEVISION (anyone remember that?). Unfortunately, the end product is - like the contributors - all over the map. The animators utilize all kinds of styles from hand drawn to computer animation to live action usage of dolls. When it is on top of its game, the film's animations are fantastic, breaking down Romero's film into a variety of unique interpretations. For example, Andres Silva's take on the window attack is fantastic as he re-interprets it in the form of a Tom & Jerry style cartoon with cats (zombies) and mice (humans). When it is off, however, it is really rough with some downright embarrassing stuff that looks like it was slapped together in Microsoft Paint. Also, some points of the film just use live action footage with artistic filters over them to fill in the gaps. Project coordinator Mike Schneider should be commended for such a grand idea, but he should also be chastised for not exhibiting some level of quality control. I get it, this is just fans doing their work to honor Romero's masterpiece. But that should be no excuse for shoddy animation that sometimes even pixelates on screen. These sub-par efforts undermine the truly rewarding work on display here.
moralityextinct Having to sit through NOTLD: 3D was one of the worst experiences I have had in this age of taking a Romero classic and sequeling or pseudo-remaking the damn thing. That, the recent Day of the Dead "remake", and the worst of the bunch, Day of the Dead 2 – Contagium make me wish Romero was already dead so he wouldn't have to know about them. Actually, I almost wish he didn't have to see Survival of the Dead either.. Anyways, if you're a huge NOTLD fan like myself, you're going to find a lot to like with NOTLD: Reanimated. What they did here was take the original 1968 version and keep all of the audio intact, so the only changes come from the imagery, which, as the title hints to, are a few dozen interpretations of the story from various animators. The styles of animation vary from CGI, to hand-drawn animation, illustration, acrylics, claymation and even sock puppets. Each snippet could run from a few seconds to a few minutes of footage – enough for the viewer to become comfortable with the variation of the segment, but interested in what else is coming. Obviously, the film makers have a lot of respect for the classic and this version really works as an "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" type of experiment. The version I received has V3 on it, so there are a few different versions floating around with different scene variations. I may just put this on as often as the original, as it is a great companion piece and warrants repeated viewings.
