The Crazies
Tags: 
David Dutton 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 house after locking his wife and young son in a closet inside. Something is infecting the citizens of Ogden Marsh...with insanity.
The few still sane find themselves trapped: Sheriff Dutton; his pregnant wife, Judy; Becca, an assistant at the medical center; and Russell, Dutton's deputy and right-hand man. Forced to band together, an ordinary night becomes a struggle for survival as they try to get out of town alive.

SHITTY REMAKES
scott Kozar is one of my favorate horror screen writers so i cant wait to see this.
Looking forward to this movie, nothing like crazed hicks, in a small town, going...well, crazy.
i hope this movie is as good as the original by George A Romero the day of the dead movie that was re released was horrible had nothin to do with the original so hope this sticks to the roots i hate seein his movies blasted.
I really want to see this! Timothy Olyphant is so hot!!!!
This movie looks fucking pimp, can't wait to see it!
I'm looking forward to this movie. Again, another movie with original material. Not the same old "vampire" or "zombie" premise, to every film. God,i'm getting tired of that...lol
Whether at the movies or straight to DVD, i'll watch.
looking gooooooooood!
Im looking forward to this movie, it looks really good.
99% of remakes suck major ass. This one looks creepy. Haven't been able to see the o.g. version, but the trailer looks pretty good. And since Romero is involved it should be a decent flick. So I'm keeping my fingers crossed with this one.
Oooooooooo!! So going on my list =]
The never-ending list!
Finally watched the original the other night and I can honestly say this is one remake that should happen, and by the looks of the trailer will do justice. I'm looking forward to it.
The trailer for this flick is exciting...this will likely be a badass movie.
Still, it would have been fine on its own without the Donnie Darko theme song. Sure, the song is relevant, but it's so overplayed...it took away from an otherwise wicked cool trailer.
why do people always call that the "Donnie Darko Theme song"? just because its the first and maybe only time you heard it. that is "Mad World" by Tears For Fears. so yea its an 80's song. the version on wack ass Donnie Darko is a remake by Garey Jules. and i've already seen this film and that song fits perfect with it. and its a sick film too!
the song at the end credits is better though. its a acoustic version of Gnarles Barkley's "Crazy" by some guy. WATCH!
because it is the donnie darko theme song (along with the other tears for fears song). everyone who isn't retarded knows that fucking song is a remake; but thanks for dropping some truth.
This looks brutal! Can't wait!
