Land of the Dead: A Day with the Living Dead (2005 Video) User Reviews

"This is where all the zombiness happens." Quite amusing actually.

Land of the Dead: A Day with the Living Dead is a short 7 and a half minute light hearted tour around the set of George A. Romero's 2005 zombie film Land of the Dead by one of it's stars John Leguizamo.

What makes this slightly different & slightly more fun is that Leguizamo comes across as a cheeky little sarcastic git. He's actually quite funny as he tries to mock everyone & generally take the mickey. Oh, & he swears a lot too. He certainly has a likability & charisma about him that makes you want more but 7 and a half minutes is all we get.

Added to this is the usual behind-the-scenes footage including some of the gory stuff from different angles & as it appeared 'on set'.

Being a 'free' extra on the Land of the Dead DVD this is certainly worth a watch if you have access to it but it won't stay with you that long & you can't help but wish it was longer.

Fun Tour of Land

Day with the Living Dead, A (2005)

*** 1/2 (out of 4)

John Leguizamo serves as host as he takes us around the LAND OF THE DEAD set. You could pretty much say that Leguizamo is doing a video diary by walking around the set, questioning includes what type of person Asia Argento would be in bed by her fighting skills, what certain cast members eat and there's a very funny bit with Dennis Hopper. Leguizamo takes the viewer to quite a few places including the food trailer but also the trailer where all the zombies get made up, which allows us to see some of the work being done. We also get some funny stuff outside the trailer where there are body parts laying around everywhere with Leguizamo going through them. I really had a good time with this feature not only because of the behind-the-scenes footage but just because Leguizamo is such a fun person. He really makes you laugh and it seems like he'd be a great person to take a tour with. He has that certain wise guy attitude and it really makes for some very funny moments.
