...Night of the Living Dead 3D (2006)
Night of the Living Dead 3D is a badly lit Russian nesting doll reimagining that adds a reason for the zombie attacks as well as Sid Haig (the lead psycho from Rob Zombie's House of 1000 Corpses) in the type of creeper role at which he excels. Most of the other actors are terrible (excepting Brianna Brown as Barb) and the filmmakers cop out on the flesh eating scenes although they try hard to make it an homage by interspersing clips from the hallowed original in to the mix. But, unless they made ka-jillions of dollars (which would be hard to imagine much less reimagine), I can't understand why this was made; it certainly was not in three dimensions when I saw it.

...Creepshow (1982)
How do you rate a movie that is comprised of five different stories, directed by one George A. Romero and written by another Stephen King? If it's Creepshow with its vacillating quality, none too highly. The creepiest story is Something To Tide You Over with Ted Danson and Leslie Nielson and the showiest is The Crate with Hal Holbrook and Adrienne Barbeau so it would behoove you to fast-forward to these sections.
