A great film (of any genre) should move you. It should captivate you and transport you. It should make you forget where the fuck you are for 5 minutes or 5 hours. The more movies I see, the more a film has to really deliver for me to step away from analysis-mode and absolutely give myself over to the cinematic experience. I don't have to believe I'm in the land of Oz or tooling around Gotham City in the Batmobile but my brain better be turned off and turned on to something magical. That happened only a handful of times this year. The first time was when I saw DANCE OF THE DEAD. It's the perfect amalgamation of Horror and Comedy. Its cast is likable, believable and the clear love for the genre that Director Gregg Bishop and Writer Joe Ballarini show their film is seeping out of every single frame. I've watched this flick 4 times since I first saw it back in March, every time expecting it to stop working, but it never does. Not only is this the best Horror film I saw in 2008, it's one of the best films I saw in 2008.

Excellent!

I saw 150 films at festivals this year, narrowed it down to 33 nominees, and chose Dance of the Dead as one of my Top 10:

I agree.
Dance of The Dance made the Top 5 Movies of 2008 on my radio show's (The Takeover: Top 20 Countdown) BEST OF 2008 Countdown Show.

And yes, the cast is very likable. Gregg and company did a great job of casting each character.

I just wonder how much dye and Karo syrup they went through after it was all said and done. hahahahhaha
