Warning -Spoilers- Warning

Rating: Null/10 (20 March 2004)

Ok, I just saw the remake of DOTD. It really scared the @#$@ out of me, I liked it. But, Because I have to do it, here is what I didn't like.
1. I think it makes sense that zombies might move fast. The problem is that not ALL zombies should move fast. The fat lady for example, you'd think she'd be a bit slower than the rest. Also, after they start to decay for a while (or go awhile without "food") you'd think they'd start to slow down a bit.
2. Zombie bites, even little ones that barely leave a mark always kill you and turn you into a zombie. This tends to say that there was a virus of some sort that causes the phenomenon (28 Days Later). If this is the case, then it would not have happened suddenly without warning in a single day AROUND THE WORLD. Also, if the only way to become a zombie is to be bitten by one, where did the first zombie come from? On top of that, what about the cop with the cut on his arm. He got zombie blood in that cut, so why didn't he become zombified?
3. This one goes along with number 2. People in this movie died in normal ways (gunshots, chainsaws, etc) In the original, those people would have become zombies. In this one, they stayed down. This adds to a less realistic (if there is such a thing) zombie movie.
4. If I knew that the world had been taken over by zombies, and I was coming up to an island, would I just come ashore and hang out? No, I'd circle the island in the boat, and make lots of noise, to attact zombies. If none came after several hours, then I'd come ashore. If zombies did show up, I'd leave.
5. Zombies don't like to eat dogs. Why would a zombie care if you were a human or a dog. It knows that you are warm living flesh. It would eat the dog!!
6. Isn't it convenient that Anna crashed her car right next door to the mall?
7. When he first shows up, CJ is a very unlikeable person. He is ready to kill everyone else to insure his survival. They even have to lock him up because of this. Then, very suddenly, near the end, he decides that he'd rather stay behind in the van, to act as a diversion. He ultimatly blows himself up so that the others might live. How Christ like of him!!
8. When Anna and Louis were in the shower, the TV shows a special news bulletin. Though we do not actually see this bulletin, we assume it is about the zombies. One would think that this would be all over the news once the story broke. So when they got out of the shower, somebody had to turn the tv off. They probably notice then that the news was reporting about zombies.
9. In the first 30 seconds of the movie, they talk about a patient who had a bite on his hand, and then had to be sent to the ER. HE WAS A ZOMBIE!! Anna works in a hospital, the zombie had been there all day long. He would have started attacking people by then! Anna would already know about the zombies!!! She is a smart girl!
10. In the mall parking lot, there was hundreds if not thousands of zombies. But just one block away the streets were empty. Why?
Anyways I'm done with my rant. Thanks!!!
