Diary of the Dead

Better than his last zombie movie.

It didn't have the deep look into personal ethics of some of the earlier films.

But I thought it still retained some incisive social commentary -- though at times it was a little conflicted.

For example, the idea that when CNN goes offline, it becomes too complicated (according to the narrator) to know what the truthis -- while alternately lauding having many points of view from all the
people online uploading their own "news reports" which help to
communicate about what's really going on, and how it's being "covered
up".
