[QUOTE="IcyCool, post: 2668329, member: 20308"] I saw these with a buddy of mine. I've never really been a fan of the Return of the Living Dead series, as I don't like intelligent, well-spoken zombies. "Brainssss" is fine dialogue, but anything beyond that just doesn't do it for me. That said, Return of the Living Dead: Necropolis was surprisingly zombie-lite for a zombie movie. It wasn't until the last bit of the movie that we really got some zombie action. The characters were kind of entertaining, and the plot wasn't a complete waste of time. And hey, zombie bio-weapons with tablesaw and minigun attachments, who doesn't like that? :) Return of the Living Dead: Rave to the Grave was different, however. If they weren't continuing the same storyline as Necropolis and using the same characters, I might have actually sat through this one. But we had to turn it off around halfway through, as we were convinced that the movie itself was trying to eat our brains. Honestly, why use the same characters and storyline, and then have all the characters pretend to have no idea what a zombie is? And the crowing bit that really got to me was the whole, "I found this U.S. army barrel of something (you know, that Trioxin stuff that makes zombies?) in my uncles attic (you know, the guy who tried to kill us with zombies that he created) - we tested it and it has components similar to x - DUDE let's get high on it and be drug dealers!!!!11one1!". What. The. Hell. *Shudders* Maybe, [i]maybe[/i] it wouldn't have been so bad if I hadn't watched Necropolis first. Bleh. [/QUOTE]
