As for this release, it is pretty bad.

4/3/9



The (original) movie is entertaining in parts, it's astoundingly dull in other parts. I think the reason a lot of people like it is due to the whole running round an abandoned shopping mall doing stuff everyone's always wanted to do and shooting zombies in the process.

Anyway, nice release by FTF. Ok their stuff might not always be the best quality but the speed is good. Definitely a watchable release if you're desperate to see it.

Romero helped make this one so I dobt he is laughing

My honest opinion, it's effort, but I believe more in quality than speed. I honestly would prefer waiting a month and seeing a decient watchable release than this. Leecher? Don't give me that crap. I never have (and probably never will) download one of ftf's releases, but I'm honestly tired of seeing their releases. The fact that I can see people release dupes of their movies (other ts's) and they aren't nuked as dupes (when techinically they are) That's pathetic that ftf has made a name for itself that is synonomous with crap. Am I bitching? Yes. Do I have every right? Sure. You see a lot of nfos with stuff at the bottom like "We do this for the old skool people in the scene, not lame xdcc kiddies (blah blah blah)" Honestly, ftf, who do you do this for? I really am curious....

Now that my rant is over (for now) I'll give my rating:

bad/well, people laughing, etc. normal cam sound/can't really tell from the sample.

gonna wait for a better release before i watch this one. it is watchable but i wanna see this one proper, so il wait for now.

Video - pretty grainy and dark. More than watchable. The cameraman takes a while to settle.

Audio - heres where the real problems lie. This is such a CAM, audience is present through the whole film, the camera squeaks and scrathes too. Also its really quiet so u have to turn the volume up real loud.

6/3/x

Not a big fan of FTF, but hey they are the only ones with a release. I definitely wanna go see in theatres. Nice try, Vid is grainy and dark, Audio is horrible (Laugh Track), oh ya and ppl stand up during the ending.Looks good but please another release


5/4/8 (Dunno got see in theatre, my kinda movie though

Thumbs up

Loved this film, went to see it on friday, i loved the original too :P well done to ftf for the release even though its shite lol but its better than nothing.

I finally got time to watch this release. You usually expect a cam this bad a week or two before the show opens in theaters. When a cammer is at a preview and conditions for taping are less than optimal one expects all the zooming and jiggling and audience chatter. On opening night+ is when a really nice TS should be released. I hope a decent one comes out. I have friends who want to see this and I'd be embarassed to show this to people even if they were really drunk. I have my rep to consider :P
4/4/eh

I just saw the original the other night. It was a pile of goat shit. I am tired of all these old movies getting labeled as masterpieces just because they are old. Who cares?? Movies like The Godfather, The Exorcist. They stand the test of time. Dawn of the Dead 1978? Please. I laughed the entire time. I thought it was supposed to be a horror movie?? Spray painted zombies crawling at bad actors? Who in the hell would ever be scared watching this?? And my favorite part, the biker gang slapping the zombies with whip cream pies? Was this a bad episode of the three stooges?? I guess you had to have been 5 years old and past your bedtime back in 1978 to think that was good movie.

I could care less what standards the old movies set back way back when. The bottom line is where are talking about the year 2004 and watching a real horror movie. Let's get back to reality and give these new movies their due respect without having to compare them to 25 year old garbage that in todays day and age is totally irrelevant.



I guess you didnt see the social significance in the movie and the whole sub-story...guess some people are just ignorant to those things.

Saw the remake...not bad. Not as good as the original thought.

Shitty release.

4/4/5

ahh, first post after browsing for months.
My brother has been waiting to see this movie ever since it was announced and on the weekend it opened up, he got the flu.
I made his day when I brought over this copy!

The video is not so bad, a bit dark and blurry with the occasional person getting up from their seat (especially near the end!). The audio is kinda low and you can hear the audience in the background.

How is the rating system? Audio/Video/Movie?

4/5/8

I thought there was too much comedy in it...especially if you are surrounded by thousands of living dead waiting to tear you from limb to limb. I dunno last thing I would want to do is makes some lame jokes if I was on the verge of death.

ok once again he dickheads have spoken with out even seeing the movie. Just Becaese it's FTF pepole automatically wanna wanna hate. movie is watchable, sound is hollow but you can hear what is being said. It's a bootleg so wtf do you expect, if your that much of a critic goto the movies and pay your 9.50, and hear the same pepole laughin and talking. Personally i never went to the movies so they arent missing my money. Ok enuff babbling 6.2 for picture a little dark same on the audio 6.2 a little hollow, and you can hear a little outside audio source i.e clapping, laughng
.

I saw this movie in the theater lastnight , Was a very good movie and I wouldn't ruin it by watching this horrible release.

Poor/Very Poor/9

The original was cheesy/comedic, this one is cheesy/comedic, so why not? good remake.

And about this release... FTF will always = CRAP... no matter how you spell it, how you add garnishings to make it look good, how you try to cover up the pugnant smell of it crap will always be crap and closely associated with FTF... It's not a diss to the group, I don't even know them, maybe it is more of a Dis to their supplier... or their encoder... but somewhere between the silver screen and the internet there is a major malfunction that is making their releases look like shit... simply put... learn to cam/rip/encode... Quality is a far better thing then speed... for example... get schwag now... or wait a couple hours for some nuggets... easy decision


Posted by aXs-SVCD on 03-22-2004 05:13 AM:

Thumbs up

This Release was a classic Theater CAM, with people laughing and people walking front of Camera, but still GREAT for first release Specially when i am Such a Big Fan of Horror Flix like this one!

and FTF did a good work explaing in the nfo for release of this

Vid5 Sound3 Film10

I was one of those 7 year old that shit my paints watching the first one in 1978. I never compare films with other films as I see there is no point. This is a awsome film even though i have only watched this FTF cam.

This cam would have been ok if there had not been so much audience noise.
If I had payed to watch a film at the cinema and there was people making such a noise i would be really pissed off.
Someone trying to make a joke, mobile phone ringing, constant chatter......Where do you find such people???????

We need a remake of Cannibal Holocaust...

Thanks FTF. Although the quality suffers, the speed of your release can not be shadowed.

FTF releases really help pass the time till another release is available.


Thanks again!


Posted by vinskidvd on 03-22-2004 08:10 AM:

I agree with you on comparison with the old filmmaking-wise (my own word..) as the thechnology just wasnt there back then.. but I got so into the movie I forgot to review the FTF cam.. Im not going to roast them on whether they should post it or not it doesnt matter to me because I aint going to download it.. there will be a better copy out soon anyhow but I give em 5 nutsacks for effort for even taking the risk.. but alas if your going to take that risk then one might want to consider the proper tools to produce a proper video.. FTF rating 4.0/4.0/10.0

love peace and bacon grease!
