First, they missed the party boat; second, they are being taken to a remote island by a boat called the Lazarus.
Third, you don't go walking around on a deserted island that looks spooky.
Unless you want some serious hurt when you get caught, you never run away from the coast guards.
"Never Leave You Ooh Oh! Ooh Oh!" by Lumidee would have been the perfect theme song for this movie.
In both "House of the Dead" and "Night of the Living Dead," the zombies have a serious case of the munchies and they prefer their humans raw.
The bottom line is to kill zombies in the most creative way possible.
It's the old good vs. evil, fight to live another day, battle-to-death Halloween film.
The difference is that in the 1968 thriller, the people are smarter and the movie is less predictable.
Save your $10 and rent the original "Night of the Living Dead" directed by George Romero.
("House of the Dead" is rated R. It recieves two out of five stars)
