The remake of Dawn of the Dead was pretty boring in some parts, so Land of the dead made me happy in that respect.I would have to disagree with you about the main cast of 'good guys'. Although the older movies had memorable actors/characters (like Ken Foree's Peter) I thought that the cast in general sucked. That was really the only thing I never liked about the old movies, for the most part, the actors were pretty laughable. I think Land of the Dead was an improvement. I really liked a few of the characters, rather than just one or two.I do have to agree with you that either Bud or Blades would have been way better as a lead zombie than 'big daddy'. Every time he came on the screen I just sighed. BTW, Bud was in the movie, but it's only for a second. If you see the movie again, look closely during the scene at the messed up faire. I couldn't disagree more. The only reason Goblin fit with Dawn of the Dead was because of the time period that the film was set in. Put that music with Land of the Dead, and it would be insanely goofy and stupid. I thought the soundtrack to Land of the Dead was decent. There was little to no heavy metal, and there was a song by Mozart. You gotta love that.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /> Interesting point. I never thought about that, and it seems that nobody who worked on the movie thought of that either. Lol.I agree with you there. The movie really lacked that 'feeling' that was talked about earlier in this thread. Although, given the setting, I wasn't exptecting it to be there.As far as what the people lived on, I got the impression that Kaufman (Dennis Hopper) payed for all that. He supplied them with drugs, entertainment, and hookers; so I assumed a little food and drink would be included in the package.Yep, slow zombies will always be the best, and I'm glad Romero stuck to his guns with Land of the Dead. At any rate, if you haven't already done so, stop reading posts and go see the damn movie! It's good! My favorite is still the old Dawn of the Dead, but Land of the Dead won't dissapoint. I expected quite a bit from the movie with Romero's name on it, and I am (for the most part) quite satisfied.</blockquote>
