Rio P @Knightrider82 Mar 14 Great movie I hated the remake See more nick s @Nick_S 02/13/2025 A good effort for a little Indie with reasonable acting. It split it's runtime between army HQ and the protagonists, which somewhat killed the tension. Also the movie didn't utilise it's concept in a clever way. For a movie called The Crazies I would have expected to see more... we'll... crazy. See more Julian S @akajulianscott 01/07/2025 THE CRAZIES grapples with its low-budget limitations, offering some chilling scenes that linger, though not quite enough to fully satisfy. See more Daniel C. M @RT91944882 12/29/2024 Probably Romero's most overlooked, yet, bleakest, disturbing, and misanthropic movie. While proper action from the titular "Crazies" is certainly lacking and to be desired; it's social commentary and political thriller aspects not only add up to a perfect story and script; but the raw-looking cinematography; fast-paced dynamic direction; awesome effects and production design with the special highlight of course going to the soldier's iconic white hazmat suits (which add up to this movie in more ways than one); realistic and three-dimensional characters, which makes you feel sympathetic even for the army men, something very rare that makes so you dont really root for their deaths, which was exactly what Romero tried and managed to achieve, yet, you also relate with and feel bad for the main charactera; all of this coupled up with realistic and bleak, yet exciting and beautifully shot action scenes makes "The Crazies" a near-perfect movie.

See more Craig B @Boundsy 08/22/2024 Okay... The Crazies was a classic back in its day, but now, sorry to say, it is a challenging watch. It has all the hallmarks of classic Romero, but it just has not aged well. I highly recommend the 2010 remake with Timothy Olyphant and Radha Mitchell... a very fine remake, with the great man George A. Romero ensuring it is relatively faithful to the original, as an Executive Producer. See more Read all reviews
