Worst Thing In Diary of the Dead

Sorry, but this guy was the worst thing about Diary of the Dead. Could his role have been a bit more repetitious and predictable? Oh, the camera is on Tony again... I wonder if he will shoot the camera a dirty look and say something about how bad it is to be filming a zombie apocalypse.

I realize he didn't write the role, but maybe it wouldn't have been so annoying if the actor could have brought some variety to his performance. This guy wore pretty much a single facial expression for the entire movie.

No he didn't. He went into the safe room at the end with bad actor chicky and the professor.

Shawn also played a character in *Land* of the Dead - which he died. In Diary he survived.

Don't touch me.

If anything, he was the only watchable thing in that POS, crappy, embarassing excuse for a movie. George Romero needs to roll over and accept he hasn't made a good zombie movie since Night of the Living Dead. And even that was only good in a "so bad it's good" way.

Diary of the Dead sucks. Live-action camera movies suck. The only one I thought worked to some level was [REC] and it's American counterpart Quarantine.

At least he's a handsome, attractive actor with true conviction for his role. The rest of those actors were low-rent, C-grade pieces of no-talen crap. Roberts was the only bright part of this film.

The OP serious has his/her head so far up their a s s that they obviously have just gone retarded and don't know what composes a watchable movie.

Diary of the Dead sucks, so does that old f ucker Romero and so do you.

I actually really liked him in Diary, he was probably my favorite
That said, he's far more suited to goofy/fun characters than broody ones
