Product Description

Product Description

Imagine living in a small town where everything is safe and happy…until suddenly it isn’t. Imagine your friends and neighbors going quickly and horrifically insane. In a terrifying tale of the “American Dream” gone horribly wrong, four friends find themselves trapped in their hometown in The Crazies, a reinvention of the George Romero classic directed by Breck Eisner from a screenplay by Ray Wright (Pulse, Case 39) and Scott Kosar (The Amityville Horror, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre). David Dutten (Timothy Olyphant) is sheriff of Ogden Marsh, a picture-perfect American town with happy, law-abiding citizens. But one night, one of them comes to a school baseball game with a loaded shotgun, ready to kill. Another man burns down his own house…after locking his wife and young son in a closet inside. People who days ago lived quiet, unremarkable lives have now become depraved, blood-thirsty killers, hiding in the darkness with guns and knives. Sheriff Dutten tries to make sense of

Amazon.com

This 2010 remake of a somewhat obscure 1973 George Romero picture injects a mysterious virus into the water supply of a small Iowa town, and the consequences are… well, you didn't expect the consequences to be positive, did you? The movie is called The Crazies, after all. So when local folk begin acting a mite peculiar, it just means they've gone to the well too often--literally. Borrowing the structure of Invasion of the Body Snatchers, the remake gets off to a clumsy start, but as the noninfected rally around the sheriff (Timothy Olyphant) and his doctor wife (Radha Mitchell), the action becomes streamlined and reasonably inventive. Director Breck Eisner has a particular knack for finding ingenious ways of killing people (a knife through the hand becomes a useful tool for the sheriff in one turn-the-tables moment), and he's been wise enough to hire respectable actors for the top-lined duties; along with Olyphant and Mitchell, there's also Joe Anderson (Across the Universe) as a loyal, amped-up deputy. If the movie misses the tart social-context stuff that Romero does so well, it at least fills the bill when it comes to the chase-and-escape business of a contemporary horror picture. The spate of such 21st-century remakes of 1970s horror pictures misses the raw, raggedy unease of those low-budget projects, but if you're going to make a slick new update, The Crazies is the way to do it. --Robert Horton

Better than 28 Days Later!
George Romero was my favorite writer/director but even I find the original The Crazies to be a tough watch. It’s still enjoyable and still has a lot of charm and creativity (which predated Outbreak and 28 Days Later by a few decades) but the pace and dialogue are all over the place. This remake is overall better realized and more enjoyable. The effects are great and thrills are better executed.Like 28 Days Later, these are not zombies, they’re people infected with a virus which turns them into aggressive killers. But unlike 28 Days Later, this film is a lot more entertaining and unfortunately underrated and forgotten.

The zombie/infected genre is like an iceberg: a few really good, well-known ones at the top, but underneath the surface an enormous amount of junk. This is about my 80th such film, so I have seen a few. I make allowances for small budgets, indie attempts, etc. You have to. There are some decent small-budget films out there, though even these are sometimes trashed by people who expect basic Hollywood production standards every time. But the great number of these films are pretty bad to awful. Something about the genre draws the worst of filmmakers and of course a few just out to make a quick buck with a popular subject. it may be the simplicity of the concept. You have zombies: pick slow or fast (usually infected) - add a few survivors, you've got a movie. Except usually you don't. To find one this good is against all odds.

For one thing the film was given a decent budget. It looks like a professional film. It has professional actors, camera work, editing, soundtrack, special effects and direction. As popular as the genre is, you'd think something as basic as giving it a decent budget would be a no-brainer, but this is where most of them fall down. The Crazies was budgeted with a healthy 20 million and made 40 million. See Hollywood? if you make something good people will come to see it; make junk and it's direct to DVD, streaming or YouTube.

This was a remake of the early 70's George Romero film that practically no one saw. He was too ahead of his time and couldn't get proper financing. The resulting film was undone by its low budget, amateur acting and cheap production. Nevertheless, romero invented the fast, infected "zombie" thirty years before 28 Days Later (1972 vs 2002), though it was 28 Days that really put it before the public and popularized it because lots of people actually saw it. This film is pretty true to many of the concepts of the first film and is not just a title rip off. (In fact, George A. Romero is listed as an Executive Producer, which means he didn't really do anything, but gets a cut of the money).

I'm going to mention a few plot points here, but these are shown very near the beginning of the film, so I don't consider them Spoilers> However if you don't want to know anything, do not read on. Like the original film, the infection is local and not a worldwide epidemic. It is likewise spread in the same way. The "Crazies" themselves are not the howling monsters of the 28 Days type. The infection comes on gradually, so at first there are no physical symptoms, but instead an increasing anger which makes anyone who seems on edge suspect, and in this situation that's about everybody. These infected retain a certain amount of their human characteristics. They have basic logic, they can work together in groups, use tools and weapons and even talk somewhat. As the disease increases they show physical symptoms and are more like rabid animals. All of that follows the original.

A pastoral vision of small town America, cornfields and Baseball in rural Iowa nicely begins the film. The action commences pretty quickly. Timothy Olyphant, Radha Mitchell and Joe Anderson are the principal actors and all are convincing in their roles. This is an action film so there's no time for deep character development, but you do feel they know and care for each other. The minor characters are well acted, too. The plot is what you would expect - there's only so much you can do with the scenario - but things happen fast and there's one scare or tense scene after another and two truly memorable ones. There nicely is no big villain, just human incompetence behind it all. There are no lame attempts at humor or irony; it's all done for real. Once it gets going it sustains its pace.

i don't know how i missed this one for so long, but I'm glad I found it. If there were only more like this.

5.0 out of 5 stars Mutants run amuck
Reviewed in the United States on January 17, 2018

This is a great horror movie - if you like the horror movie genre than you will not be disappointed in this movie. I originally checked this movie out because I like Timothy Olyphant from the F.X. tv series "Justified", who is the male lead in that tv series and also this movie - "The Crazies". Also, if you like George A Romero zombie movies - "Diary of the Dead", "Survival of the Dead", "Land of the Dead", "Dawn of the Dead", etc - you will not be disappointed because this too is a George A Romero horror movie flick too. Although the "crazies" are not "zombies" but instead the mutant like victims of a biological engineered military weapon gone wrong that infected most of the town - some were immune to the human engineered, military grade "biological warfare agent" for lack of a better term, but most were not...

Those infected become murderous mutants with no qualms about killing people, even those closest to them - wife and even there very own children in some cases. Timothy Olyphant plays the role of the town Sheriff and Radha Mitchell plays the town doctor and wife of the Sheriff. Both, the Sheriff and Doctor are immune to the chemical engineered biological warfare agent as it turns out. So, they have to witness the atrocities performed by there infected neighbors and fight for there very survival (and the survival of their hereto unborn child) so they do not too all become the murdered victims albeit murdered by their mutant neighbors not the biological warfare agent mind you. Danielle Panabaker has a small supporting role in this movie as the Doctors' nurse who she too is immune to the biological warfare agent and must likewise fight for her very own continued survival. We learn throughout the movie that those bitten by the infected mutants and/or likewise ingested body excrement of the infected mutants are a ticking time bomb and where previously immune to the biological warfare agent they are no longer...or were they infected from prolonged exposure in the air...hard to say...nonetheless those who were once healthy and allies can become combatants in a millisecond when previously they bared no such signs and infected symptoms. The incubation period of the infected as it turns out varies person to person based on that person's immune system as best as I can reason...

Will the Sheriff and his wife stay immune to the biological warfare agent? Will the Sheriff and his wife escape the infected mutants - unscathed? Will the madness of the infected mutants end before the disease spreads beyond the town residents? All answered - watch the movie you will not be disappointed.

No puedo opinar si es un buen remake de la cinta homónima de 1973 ya que no la he visto, pero lo he si puedo decir de esta cinta es que es una cinta de buena manufactura, las actuaciones son muy buenas, los efectos, la historia, los sustos. No cae en cinta cliché de zombies, Radha Mitchel es siempre agradable verla en cintas de terror, aquí no es la excepción. Timothy Oliphant está genial como el sheriff y hace buena mancuerna con Radha. George A. Romero el director de la original aquí produce, y creo que cuido cada detalle porque está bien hecha. Muy recomendable.
Él bluRay tiene idioma en inglés y subtítulos en inglés y español, tiene muchos material extra: audio comentario del director, detrás de cámaras con el director, detrás de cámaras 'paranormal pandemics', detrás de cámaras con George A. Romero, detrás de cámaras del maquillaje, cómic de The Crazies episodios 1&2, detrás de cámaras de los efectos y storyboards de cómo se filmaron algunas escenas.
