Dawn is the gold standard of zombie horror. Can it be topped or equaled? I fear that this will never be as good as Dawn because movies simply cannot be as transgressive today. Oh sure the remake of Dawn had a zombie baby but that was like "OMG/WTF ZOMBIE BABY!!!111ELEVEN" Whereas in Dawn and Night you had the scene with the zombie girl eating her folks like it was the most natural thing in the world, or the zombie nun - why should that be a big deal, it's a zombie nun - or the immigrants in the projects who were keeping their reanimated dead relatives hidden out of some misguided religious idea that they had been resurrected or something. Or the black guy who survives Night only to be shot by rednecks out a-shootin' dead folks. And all of that was unexaggerated or at least not used to beat the audience over the head. But today that has to be overplayed and overacted like *cough* *cough* "well naturally Universal Pictures finds the idea of a dead woman giving birth to a zombie baby reprehensible. We are deeply shocked and disturbed by this horrific turn of events and neither condone nor encourage the birth of living dead babies." Like everything's too politically incorrect now - religion, death, race, class, social criticism, everything that worked as subtext in the first two movies. So they make the zombies smart instead, and it becomes a bug hunt like Aliens - no deep brooding horror, just something jumping out of the dark now and then. |

Dude, you forgot Day. Day had a smart zombie....bub. Now, before you come back and say day was horrible, i think it is great i like it second best to dawn. It wasn't commercially big b/c it had a little too much dialog, the budget itself was cut towards the end of production lots of cuts were made to the theatricle version, it didn't help that Return of the living dead was released around the same time either....returns one of my favorites too...not so much the shitty sequals. don't even compair the remake of dawn to this new one until you've seen it. Dawn 04 was okay...it kinda missed all the satire. i mean, when dawn 78 came out malls were pretty much a new thing. one of my co-workers said at the time they were just springing up and becoming popular. if they really wanted to make a cool twist on dawn...they should have looked at how big mall culture is today. basically have a bunch of people trapped in a mall like the mall of america...where anything you could possible think of is there to use(kinda how malls use to be back in the day, now we just have more junk to buy)...and they've been trapped and have to fight their way out. would have been more interesting and open for tons of comedy/satire. but no they choose to pretty much copy the story, just cut out anything thought provoking and place explosions here here and here and have something sorta shocking as an zombie baby. rest assured, in every romero movie there is a big zombie feast, and i hope it makes me want to puke. did the visual effects. he has some bombs in the list, but he also has some excellent stuff...a lot of excellent stuff behind him. got his start with romero too in day. I think the idea of 1 zombie leading an army of the undead is kinda funny...ala bush brainless leader etc. maybe thats the angle george is shooting for. it might not surpass dawn but i hope this becomes the day of the dead we never got to see...this is a movie for the fans AM |

Personally I frickin' loved the DOTD remake, I thought was intense as hell. No satire or slyness, but somehow I made do. I liked this trailer, good looking. Action packed but you can make any minute long trailer seem like that, so who knows. I'd be perfectly happy with something like DOTD04, even if I don't learn anything from the experience. |

looks quite hardcore. something about it though makes it look like there's a high chance that it'll be shite. |
