Not worth the time
This was beyond awful. There is absolutely nothing worthwhile about this film. The tactic of including "Re-Animation" in the title—as if tying it to Re-Animator along with the inclusion of Jeffrey Combs—is nothing but a shameless money grab. The effects are so bad they can't even be considered "camp". Ridiculous green-screening, choppy transitions between live actor and gaudy special effects dummy take you completely out of what little "moment" they've built up. Combs is wooden and not at all his usual creepy self. Kinda digging the moustache, but that hardly carries the film. This is not destined for a cult following of any kind. It's not that kind of bad. Skip it entirely.
Night of the ... are you kidding me?
I must say that I was rather excited when I first saw the information about this movie being in the making and I was anxiously awaiting it. Why? Well first of all, I am a huge fan of zombies and "Night of the Living Dead" is the groundbreaking milestone within the genre. Plus it also have Jeffrey Combs on the list of cast, and I admire his work in the horror genre. Having seen the movie, I sit here somewhat baffled. I have a terrible sensation of having been disappointed and cheated out of something grand. Perhaps I just had way too high expectations for this movie, because it fell short of delivering anything that I was expecting. I wonder why the movie got the title that it did, because it really didn't have much to do with the original "Night of the Living Dead" movie, except for tossing the occasional reference that true zombie fans will pick up on. Sure, it was taking place at the same location, but in overall, this movie might as well just had been titled "Re-Animation", because it didn't really bring enough with it to be worthy of a place in the Romero series. Storywise, "Night of the Living Dead: Re-Animation" didn't really offer much of a solid story to hold on to. There was given a very vague explanation to the cause of the zombie outbreak, but it wasn't a very plausible one, and I didn't buy into it. Plus, I would have liked to seen a more thorough tie-in to the original "Night of the Living Dead" movie. But hey, I had perhaps just too high hopes and expectations for this particular movie. As for the cast. Well I was thrilled to see Jeffrey Combs in a zombie movie, although I have to say that his performance in this movie is far from his best. A second iconic horror actor, Andrew Divoff, has the lead role in the movie, and he actually does keep the movie afloat. Without him, the movie would have been less than the mediocre result it was. There wasn't really a lot of zombies in the movie, and the ones that was there had far from enough screen-time, and you hardly got to see any cool zombie make-up and special effects. Which was a major disappointment, especially in 2012 where effects and CGI should be almost a household item. And as for gore, well there was very little of that too in "Night of the Living Dead: Re-Animation". One of the better parts of this movie was the various hints and references to other zombie movies. Some were blunt and in your face, while others were more subtle, leaving it up to real zombie aficionados to locate and point them out. Oh, and you just got to love the scene where Gerald Tovar, Jr. is shooting zombies in the crematorium with the shotgun. Classic Hollywood moment there, as he doesn't reload, and the shotgun fires off way over 20 shots. Actually I counted 29 in total, so that was pretty awesome. Hooray for Hollywood firearms. For a 2012 zombie movie, "Night of the Living Dead: Re-Animation" was a rather dull and mediocre experience. My hopes and expectations for this movie was shut down pretty fast. Having seen it, I am fairly certain that this particular zombie movie is not one that I will be making a second watching of.
I Was Lured by the Name of Jeffrey Combs in the Cast
In Hinzmaville, the mortician Gerald Tovar Jr. (Andrew Divoff) has inherited the mortuary Tovar & Son after the death of his father. Gerald is not happy with the work of his assistant DyeAnne (Robin Sydney) and his Aunt Lou (Melissa Bailey) hires Cristie Forrest (Sarah Lieving) to be the substitute for DyeAnne. When Gerald's brother, Harold (Jeffrey Combs), visits him, Gerald discloses to Harold that the corpses delivered by the U.S. Army are reanimating and he shows the crematory to him full of bodies and body parts. The skeptical Gerald believes that his brother is insane and leaves the place. However, Aunt Lou opens the door and is bitten by a zombie, beginning an outbreak in the mortuary. "Night of the Living Dead 3D: Re-Animation" has just been released on straight on DVD in Brazil and I was excited with the expectations of a great zombie movie with Jeffrey Combs to entertain during the interruption of "The Walking Dead". Unfortunately, despite the reasonable special effects and make-up, the story is lame and stupid, with a shotgun that does not need to reload and a ridiculous conclusion. Therefore this Z-movie does not work. My vote is three. Title (Brazil): "A Noite dos Mortos Vivos: Re-Animação" ("Night of the Living Dead 3D: Re-Animation")
This is why Horror is going down these days...bad bad bad
Pure crap ! I'm a zombie fan and I remember Jeffrey combs in "From Beyond" and "Re-Animator" (that I actually saw in Avoriaz Horror Festival in France when released...that's a while back) but I would have preferred to keep this old memory of him ... intact ! This is nonsense horror ! The acting is not that bad but this is just pure boredom...the effects are way beyond average and there is no tension at all. I don't always look for scare but zombies can be really scary when well directed...this isn't the case ! I actually deleted the movie after watching it (something that I rarely do). I rated 3 because 1 is for garbage...this is only useless crap and the effort is worth a 3 ! The biggest question is: why make such movie ? I think it's only direct to DVD attempt to make a few bucks using a marketing title and the presence of the old actor of Re-Animator ! It's sad to see Horror taking such path these days.
The kind of film you would only watch once...
This movie was not too bad but in saying that it wasn't great either. The CGI effects in some parts was second rate and the acting was average too, although I did like Andrew Divoff and Jeffrey Combs in this. The story wasn't ground breaking either, but there were a few funny bits in the film. I have to say that some of the zombies looked pretty good for a B type movie, and some of the bloody gory parts were not that bad, but again they were out weighed by the average parts of the film. I did try to give it a chance, and like I said, it wasn't really bad, but it's the kind of movie that once you see you really don't need to see it again. So I give it a 4 out of 10.
