Well folks, there you have it. The entire \u201cDead Series” review<\/h3>\n

It\u2019s been awesome looking back over this franchise.<\/h3>\n

It’s well known the original trilogy has been remade with “Dawn Of The Dead” being the most popular with fans, even I admit that it wasn’t too bad. However “Night Of The Living Dead” has been remade countless times and continues to do so, I highly suggest you stay away from them and instead read the\u00a0“Night Of The Living Dead” comics, they’re fantastic.<\/h3>\n

Romero actually stated that “Diary Of The Dead” was a modern “Night Of The Living Dead” with it even starting on the same day just updated, it was supposed to be a “Living Dead” tv series directed by him but instead was made into a film. This would’ve been interesting to see, especially with the likes of “The Walking Dead” being released (a series he turned down).<\/h3>\n

You can’t talk about these films without mentioning the social commentary that’s abundantly evident in each film, it’s the driving point of each of the releases and if you have no idea what I’m talking about then go back and watch them again.\u00a0The satire on mass consumerism from “Dawn Of The Dead” is still relevant now, if not more than ever.<\/h3>\n

The big question is – is Romero done? I mean he hasn’t directed a film since 2009.\u00a0Romero has stated he has plans to direct two more sequels to “Survival Of The Dead”, I’d like to see this happen as I feel he still has some magic left in him but he needs to hurry \u00a0as he is 75 and time’s running out.<\/h3>\n

Romero’s “Dead Series” is legendary, iconic and for very good reasons, do yourself a favour and have a marathon and relive those amazing and shocking moments.<\/h3>\n
