The Crazies

[AlexOC]

As a toxin begins to turn the residents of Ogden Marsh, Iowa into violent psychopaths, sheriff David Dutton (Olyphant) tries to make sense of the situation while he, his wife (Mitchell), and two other unaffected townspeople band together in a fight for survival.

Looks good! Anyone going to see it?

Another remake...

But, it looks decent from the trailer and the use of Gary Jules' cover of Tears for Fears' Mad World is scarily effective. My editor has seen it but is embargoed.

There was a 'The Crazies' in umm '73 aye?

[Misawa]

Yes, sir. From master of horror George Romero.

I don't usually think horrors are very good but this looks like it could be interesting. Not top of my list of movies to see this year though.

It's justified here but Mad World is so overused like this!

Gears of War TV commercial used Mad World fantastically. I haven't seen it overused to be honest.

Yep that was the first time I heard it, and loved it. Since then I hear it all the time. Although it could be to do with my school because it was used a lot in productions

The original song, however, is still a billion times better.

The title makes me think of a children's television programme for some reason.

Oh God. Get a grip. It's awful. How can you have a depressing song with 80's techno crap in the background? It sounds bloody awful.
