It's either a return to Romero's independent roots, or yet another poor "guy records horror" film with morals even more {{Anvilicious}} than [[LandOfTheDead the previous one]].

** 'I am Samuel. Hello.' - A very good way to introduce yourself when you use explosives.
** "Dont mess with Texas!"
** "I'm leaving you, Jason. You can keep the house; I'm taking the car" Complete with a very fitting soundtrack to match the "Don't mess with Texas" quote above.
