Bede Vs. The Living Dead Episode 9 - Night Of The Living Dead: Resurrection (2012)... The British Remake

Hey, everyone! Welcome to episode 9 of Bede Vs. The Living Dead. The podcast where your host Bede Jermyn explores the remakes, re-edits, reimaginings, homages, unofficial follow-ups and more to George A. Romero’s 1968 classic Night Of The Living Dead across all media. That's right, everyone. The podcast is now only one episode away reaching the milestone 10th episode and there is still many more to come in this journey of exploring every version of Night Of The Living Dead that is out there. So far for the show a lot of the different remakes, homages and re-edits of the original 1968 film have been made in the United States, it's time to take a trip across the pond and see how the Brits tackle this classic zombie with the 2011 British independently made remake Night Of The Living Dead: Resurrection, which was co-written and directed by James Plumb (Silent Night, Bloody Night: The Homecoming). Joining Bede in discussing this British reimagining of Night Of The Living Dead is returning guest and contributor for The Super Network Marcus Wilturner, who previously made appearances on the first and fifth episodes of the podcast. Highlights in this episode include Bede & Marcus discuss all the differences between this remake and the original 1968 film, how the character of Ben was controversially used in the story, the unlikability of the new characters, the film's use of shock tactics, wonder if this remake is actually even more bleaker and mean spirited than the original NOTLD, appreciating the elements that did work, *that* repugnant final line and so much more.
