Yeah, and me. Good stuff with one of the best decapitations ever.

But it's perhaps one of the least faithful adaptations of a novel ever seen!
I would still like someone to actually adapt the novel properly as it would make a very interesting movie.

Nice review of "The Crazies".
Glad you liked it. I know what you mean about the film's technical shortcomings, but I actually find I like them. They add such a level of realism to the thing, almost documentary like and very, very Romero.

Rates up there with his first trilogy "Dead" films for me.
