Night of the Living Dead

Night of the Living Dead: Directed by George A. Romero. With Duane Jones, Judith O’Dea, Karl Hardman, Marilyn Eastman. A ragtag group of Pennsylvanians barricade themselves in an old farmhouse to remain safe from a horde of flesh-eating ghouls that are ravaging the East Coast of the United States.

The movie opens with a couple going out to a cemetery 200 miles away from home to put a wreath on a grave. Maybe it’s a brother and sister? Maybe! But my main focus is that this is a surprisingly fantastic transfer, I had heard the copyright on the film had expired, but this is fantastic on Kanopy, so I can only imagine that this is an official hd transfer from the original film, and boy howdy am I here for it. The story and action are all prime ’60’s shlock, but it works for what it is, and I’m impressed at how well it works. I’m pretty shocked that Romero went hard on the “alien radiation” origin of the zombie virus, because to my knowledge this isn’t mentioned again in the subsequent films.

“They’re coming to get you Barbra.”

I didn’t know this was from this movie, happy to find out it’s origin.

Day of the Dead

Day of the Dead: Directed by George A. Romero. With Lori Cardille, Terry Alexander, Joseph Pilato, Jarlath Conroy. As the world is overrun by zombies, a small group of scientists and military personnel dwelling in an underground bunker in Florida must determine whether they should educate, eliminate or escape the undead horde.

Some casual racism that’s hard to get past, but this movie (and the franchise) came up in a discussion about zombie films in which the various characters had the RIGHT idea about what to do. In this case, at the beginning of the film one of the helicoptor operators suggested they take off for an island off the Florida coast and just wait the zombie infection out.

Lucky for us, but bad for them, they didn’t do that until at least 9/10 of their party was dead and turned into zombies. There’s a ton of fantastic practical work done in the film, most of it much more gory than anything you’ll see on screens in modern zombie films. I think since it’s officially spooky season, this is going to be my first franchise to watch through, though I’m apparently starting with the third movie of the series, the first of which is the classic 1968 film “Night of the Living Dead”, then followed by “dawn of the dead”. I’ve seen the second one a few times and it has a remake directed by Zac Snyder and written by Romero and James Gunn, but they were both so good I’ll watch them again.

Confess, Fletch

Confess, Fletch: Directed by Greg Mottola. With Lorenza Izzo, Jon Hamm, Anna Osceola, Marcia Gay Harden. After becoming the prime suspect in multiple murders, Fletch strives to prove his innocence while simultaneously searching for his fiancé’s stolen art collection.

I had some minor misgivings of this movie about the same character that Chevy Chase played nearly 30 years ago, which is based on a series of books, which means it’s a different story and Jon Hamm can do whatever he wants with the character without really being beholden to what Chase did with him. In many ways it’s a situation that’s much like the Bond franchise!

It’s a good movie, it’s a good mystery and it’s well acted by everyone involved. In fact, I think I’d like to see another story with Hamm as Fletch, he’s the perfect amount of swarmy, sexy, intelligent, and devious that currently does well for mysteries.
