I preferred Diary much more than Land. I think Land was very anti-climatic; I mean you've waited 20 years for a new instalment in the Romero zombie saga, and what do you get?: mediocrity.

At least Diary did take the zombie series in a new and interesting direction: Yes, it did play on the shaky-cam craze with the success of Cloverfield, but is still an enjoyable film imo.

Arguably though if Land had been a stand alone zombie film from a director other than Romero, it would definitely be one of the better ones. I think we tend to get biased by the genius of the mans earlier work, and expect nothing but greatness all the time!

Still to see Survival though... ()
