Like other Romero fans, I was somewhat disappointed by the original version of Land Of The Dead. I own all the originals many times over and Romero’s version of this never felt right sitting next to the others.
Then I saw Mollo’s FanCut, which corrects Romero’s various missteps and somehow opens the world of the film up, thus making this film so much more epic than it had previously been.
The film is now so much more watchable and seems to be truer to Romero (or at least the things we like about Romero’s films) than Romero could achieve.
I do miss the puppet zombie at the film’s opening (and to a lesser extent the Savini zombie), but that’s a small price to pay.
Awesome work Mollo!
