Ich persönlich bin ja schon sehr gespannt auf den Film, auch wenn ich diese "Blair Witch Perspektive" jetzt nicht unbedingt so toll finde, trotzdem könnte der Streifen sehr spannend werden. Dass es eine Low-Budget-Produktion sein wird ist bei einem Romero-Film auch nicht so schlimm, wenn man mal bedenkt dass Teil 1 1968 nur rund 114.000 $ gekostet hat und Teil 2 von 1978 ebenfalls mit 1.000.000 $ ein geringes Budget hatte. Beide Filme sind Heute kult.
Hier noch die Originalaussage von George A. Romero:
Es ist übrigens noch unklar ob der Film ins Kino kommt oder gleich direkt auf DVD erscheint.Well, I’m sort of going back to the roots, basically. I’m going back to the first night, when things started. You know, I’ve done the four films in the series… can’t call it a trilogy anymore, cause there’s four of them… but I wanted to… you know there’s a lot of sort of unanswered questions. People keep saying, “Well, you know, like, can animals come back from the dead?” and a million unanswered questions… So I wanted to go back to the very first night, the first night that it started, and I wanted do it from like a different, completely different perspective… and have characters that learn about it the way… in the original Night, you know the people in the farmhouse learn about it on the news and, you know, not so much from first-hand experience because they’re just locked up in this house. So I wanted a new set of characters… and sort of like, I don’t know, Skip and Spector did those books called Book of the Dead, and so it’s basically going back to the beginning with a different set of character and taking the whole phenomenon as it comes. And it’s all subjective camera. It’s a bunch of kids that are out making a movie… college kids that are making their own little horror flick and they have a camera… and they get the news and they take off in a van and it’s all then, it’s all from this guy’s camera. I guess, in a way I guess it’s like Blair Witch… but it’s not… you know, I’m not trying to imitate Blair Witch…. I’m just trying to do it from a subjective point of view with no music and no… just really do it raw. It’s kind of a stylistic experiment, under the radar, low budget thing. It’s just sort of from the heart, you know.
