Rating: Null/10 (22 March 2004)

Romero's original film had a great sense of space and timing, and four great characters that he let you care about . With the remake they piled up a bunch of people and it wasn't much of a surprise you knew most of them were gonna get chopped up and it didn't seem to matter because you didn't get to know them any way.
The only reason to call this dawn of the dead was the theme of the mall. Romero already made dawn of the dead and it's still great. And in all honesty I love those blue green zombies and all the bright red blood.
My heart was racing for the first half hour of the remake , it was terrifying . but the only people I felt sympathy were for poor Andy and Matt Frewer, playing the doomed dad. The best I can say about the new movie is , It was genuinely scary, and they didnt even try touch romero which was a smart move ,but.... the ending sucked I am not a fan of the snuff endings where they kill everyone. the end credits reminded me of something they didnt use for the s****y house of the dead euro crap.
It was scary and that was goood for me I didn't expect a Romero masterpeice.
