I can handle superhuman zombies (Left 4 Dead!) but the whole point of WWZ was a dissection of the zombie idea, and exactly why the original Night of the Living Dead shambling corpses were so horrible. I haven't seen the trailer but I didn't expect much after the first word leaked from production. Yet another message for film producers- the source material was popular for a reason. Making wholesale changes very VERY rarely improves it.
