GOOD REMAKE

Rating: Null/10 (16 August 2004)

When i first heard that a remake of a classic zombie flic was in the works, i was thinking about how Hollywood is doing that a lot lately. Most of the remakes suck to. I was scared that it was going to butcher one of the greatest horror movies ever. Well, i was wrong. This movie is very good and scary, great gore for the most part. WARNING SPOILERS: This movie stars only one actor that comes to mind Ving Rhimes. This remake basically takes everything in the remake and makes it more "Hollywood" but that doesn't mean that its bad. Same plot, it doesn't explain why people turn into zombies much like the original, strangers take a shelter in a mall. The difference about this one, being that the zombies are outside the mall. With exception of a couple zombies inside. I don't want to give that much away because there isn't much to give away if you have seen the original. Don't go into this movie expecting it to top the original because it doesn't. As far as the direction it was OK, except the MTV style editing which i cant stand. Acting was good to.
