Is nothing like Romero's stuff. When you look at Dawn, and Night. Then look at Land, there is a huge difference. I think the editor of this film was ok, but he is no Editor like George was when he did the editing himself.

However, the one thing that reminded me most of George's style of editing was the scene in LOTD when they showed the raiders egtting ready to go into the down. Shots of them checking their bikes, guns etc etc. It reminded me of the biker gang getting ready to raid the mall.

That was the only thing in LOTD that reminded me of Georges type of editing. Otherwise, it just wasn't George.

IMHO, I wish he would have gotten Michael Gornick to be the DoP. I just didn't like the look of LOTD. LOTD has a lot of problems, but one of the biggest things that sticks out to me the most was the overall look of the film. It just didn't feel Romero enough. When you look at DAWN and DAY you see that classic Romero style, but LOTD doesn't have it. The film is either too blue, or too bright.
