The Crazies Long
before an unknown disease turned ordinary people into rage-filled zombies in
2002's 28 Days Later and created a
subgenre of its own in the process, there was George Romero’s The Crazies.
The Crazies is a little known Romero feature that was released in 1973 and
forgotten by most although it does have a small cult following. It will be
interesting to see if The Crazies retains one of the bleakest endings
ever, but Romero is involved in the remake so we should get to keep some of his
vision. It should be interesting to find out at the least.
