A true modern day classic.

Now I've seen my fair share of fantastic cinema in my time, Dracula 3000, shanghai surprise, bossin up and that movie with Britney and too many more to mention, but rarely has a movie come along that is as poetic and affecting as Uwe Boll's House of the dead.
A movie of truly god like proportions, the cinematography is just beautifull, sweeping and epic, the bold direction brings to mind Bergman or an early Hitchcock, the editing fantastic, (the way they break up scenes with screenshots from the game is utterly mind blowing and truly original) and overall production is on par with movies such as Ben hur, or the rings trilogy, then theres the acting, well if ever there was a masterclass of performances then this is surely it, including deeply moving performances from such sought after and highly respected actors like Clint howard, this movie just couldnt get any better, plus it could quite possibly be the best movie of Jurgen Prochnow's career, from Daz boot to house of the dead, he really has come far, all I can hope is that they have a sequel in the works as I'm desperate to enter the world of this survival horror classic once again.
Forget movies like 28 days later or Romero's zombie movie's this is the real deal.
Ok I'm lying, it's crap although the dvd does make a nice drinks coaster, my drink doesnt slip off it or anything, unfortunately they also did a sequel.
