DVD Dawn of the Dead (Ultimate Edition)
George Romero's 1978 follow-up to his classic Night of the Living Dead is quite terrifying and gory (those zombies do like the taste of living flesh). But in its own way, it is just as comically satiric as the first film in its take on contemporary values. This time, we follow the fortunes of four people who lock themselves inside a shopping mall to get away from the marauding dead and who then immerse themselves in unabashed consumerism, taking what they want from an array of clothing and jewelry shops, making gourmet meals, etc. It is Romero's take on Louis XVI in the modern world: keep the starving masses at bay and crank up the insulated indulgence. Still, this is a horror film when all is said and done, and even some of Romero's best visual jokes (a Hare Krishna turned blue-skinned zombie) can make you sweat. --Tom Keogh
Review(s): DVD Dawn of the Dead (Ultimate Edition)
Fantastic
A bit into commericalism. A movie about how several survivors box themselves up in a shopping mall to wait out the pending horror that is going on outside the mall's wall, i.e. Zombies. A must see film for anyone who enjoys watching horror movies. A classic film.
Best Zombie Movie EVER!!!!!
Out of all the countless zombie movies I've seen, this one ranks above all!!!!
This movie is packed with action and terror. It has good special effects but some of the zombies could use more gashes etc. for the look.
I couldn't get this movie out of my system!
It ranks superior to all the movies I've ever seen.
Dawn of the Dead
It set the standard for zombie movies to come, It might have been the best zombie movie, if I had not seen Shaun... Dawn's gore is a landmark for it's time and is still good to this very day!!
Chapter three of George Romero's mighty zombie trilogy has big footsteps to follow. Night of the Living Dead was a classic that revitalized a certain corner of the cinema, and Dawn of the Dead was nothing short of epic. Day of the Dead, however, has always been regarded as a comedown compared to those twin peaks--and perhaps it is. But on its own terms, this is an awfully effective horror movie, made with Romero's customary social satire and cinematic vigor--when a "retrained" zombie responds to the "Ode to Joy," the film is in genuinely haunting territory. The story is set inside a sunken military complex, where Army and medical staff, supposedly working on a solution to the zombie problem, are going crazy (strongly foreshadowing the final act of 28 Days...

We can hardly imagine how shocking this film was when it first broke into the film scene in 1968. There's never been anything quite like it again, though there have been numerous pale imitations. Part of the terror lies in the fact that it is shot in such a raw and unadorned fashion that it feels like a home movie, and is all the more authentic because of that. It draws us into its world gradually, content to establish a merely spooky atmosphere before leading us through a horrifically logical progression that we hardly could have anticipated. The story is simple: Radiation from a fallen satellite has caused the dead to walk, and hunger for human flesh. Once bitten, you become one of them. And the only way to kill one is by a shot or blow to the head. We follow a group holed up in a... More Info about this DVD Actor(s): Duane Jones - Judith O'Dea Director(s): George A.

Are you ready to get down with the sickness? Movie logic dictates that you shouldn't remake a classic, but Zack Snyder's Dawn of the Dead defies that logic and comes up a winner. You could argue that George A. Romero's 1978 original was sacred ground for horror buffs, but it was a low-budget classic, and Snyder's action-packed upgrade benefits from the same manic pacing that energized Romero's continuing zombie saga. Romero's indictment of mega-mall commercialism is lost (it's arguably outmoded anyway), so Snyder and screenwriter James Gunn compensate with the same setting--in this case, a Milwaukee shopping mall under siege by cannibalistic zombies in the wake of a devastating viral outbreak--a well-chosen cast (led by Sarah Polley, Ving Rhames, Jake Weber, and Mekhi...

Bolstered by the success of 28 Days Later, Shaun of the Dead, the Resident Evil movies and the hit remake of his own Dawn of the Dead, George A. Romero returns to the horror subgenre he invented with Land of the Dead. The fourth installment in Romero's zombie cycle (and the first since 1985's Day of the Dead) presents a logical progression of events since 1968's horror classic Night of the Living Dead: Zombies (also known as "stenches" for their rotting odor) are the dominant population, and they've begun to show signs of undead intelligence and gathering power. The wealthiest survivors live comfortably in a luxury high-rise within a barricaded safe zone, ignoring the horrors of the outside world while armed scavengers stage raids in the...

Without a doubt, this is one of the best horror movies I have ever seen. The intensity and suspense really start to pick up speed at about ten minutes in, and it doesn't let up until the end credits. Although it would be impossible to top George A. Romero's phenomenal, original 'Night Of The Living Dead', Tom Savini's 1990 version truly is an excellent remake and an all around superb horror movie. Out of the countless zombie flicks that I have seen, I highly regard this as one of, if not the best. If you are looking for a movie that best depicts what it would be like if the dead were to rise, then I suggest you immediately look into this film.
