Was this a remake?

Rating: 7/10 (21 March 2004)

I saw this movie yesterday and found it to be a gory squelch-fest with beautiful undead effects and the proper tension between the remaining few humans in the Mid-West, but I can't actually call it a remake. It has a mall and a cop and hordes of zombies but it is a different movie on every level. This has no real social underscore and their aren't two schools of thought on how to deal with the zombie problem, although they begin with a two camp face off that is quickly thwarted .I am a fan of this movie and I rated it a 7-8 out of ten, but the original (not to sound all film snob)is a better picture .If this film stood on it's own instead of having the same and being shadowed by a genre classic it would be viewed as a "28 days later" or "Dellamorte Dellamore". -Erich
