The release will be available for purchase on February 6.
Synopsis: Fear goes viral in this terrifying retelling of George A. Romero's zombie horror classic. Five years after an epidemic nearly wiped out the world's population, Dr. Zoe Parker lives in an underground bunker among a small group of military personnel and survivalists, working on a cure while fighting armies of the undead. When a dangerous patient from Zoe's past infiltrates the bunker, he just might hold the key to saving humanity . . . or ending it.
Special Features and Technical Specs:

I specifically remember them doing this already a few years ago and it being insanely horrible and unbearable. What made them think this was a good idea? BUT, I haven't seen it so can't fully judge.
Yeah, didn't they already remake "Day"? Twice? But from what I can remember, neither earlier remake was really a remake, this one actually looks like it follows the original's storyline. No "Spider-Man Zombies" in this version, I hope!
As well as non-found-footage horror has become, we've got to take what we can get. I choose not to judge the book by it's cover, nor let people I don't even know tell me what I might or might not like.
As a die hard fan of Romero's "Zombie" saga, I must say this actually looks half-way decent. Not NEARLY as bad as the 2008 remake or the atrocious "Day of the Day 2: Contagion." Looks like it could be fun. Trust me, this trailer is better than 9 out of 10 Zombie B-films released every year.
I'm pretty sure that no, that isn't the case here. It's not that it "might have been better received"; it's that it quite simply would never have been made. It's a Bulgarian movie about a rapist zombie. It's a cash grab, pure and simple. People can buy and support whatever they want, but I'll be supporting either newer horror directors making better, original films or smaller distribution companies releasing great genre pictures from years past.
