DVD Review "THE CRAZIES" Score B- 80%

This remake of a horror film of the same name, does the genre some updated justice. The infection storyline has been done to death, pun intended, so the story here is nothing new. Government virus makes the town people into killer zombies, the few uninfected have to escape the town, avoid the military killing them and survive. Most don't. The leads do. There is some cool makeup going on, some cool kill scenes and its paced well enough to keep your attention. Nothing about it stands out as particularly scary. But if you like this genre its a decent one in the field.
