Fast! Gory! SCARY! What more could you want in a Zombie movie?

Rating: 10/10 (29 March 2004)

There are moments in this film where you WILL lurch, gasp, shudder, and, depending on your stomach, vomit. I was very impressed with this remake. It does not strive to regurgitate the original. Instead what we get is a fresh and dynamic take on the original film. In the very basic sense, the plot structure is the same: people seek shelter from cannibalistic horror in a shopping mall.
However, the visual style, the acting, the characters, and the details are all different. Whereas the original was more socially conscious, this remake seeks only to frighten and entertain.
If you enjoy being scared and you enjoy that intense kind of anticipation and adrenalin rush, go see it. But bring your barf bags!
