Product Description

Product Description

Director's cut of Zack Snyder's modern re-telling of George A. Romero's 1979 horror classic. Sarah Polley and Ving Rhames star as Ana and Kenneth, two of the last remaining people on earth after the human race has been decimated by flesh-eating zombies. The two find temporary shelter with a few other survivors in an abandoned shopping mall, but their situation becomes increasingly precarious as they run out of food and power and the dead start to break through their defences. They realise their only hope of survival is to escape to an island that remains zombie-free - but how can they possibly find a way to reach it?

From Amazon.co.uk

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 Phifer), some outrageously morbid humor, and a no-frills plot that keeps tension high and blood splattering by the bucketful. Horror buffs will catch plenty of tributes to Romero's film (including cameos by three of its cast members, including gore-makeup wizard Tom Savini), and shocking images are abundant enough to qualify this Dawn as an excellent zombie-flick double-feature with 28 Days Later, its de facto British counterpart. --Jeff Shannon --This text refers to an alternate DVD edition.

5.0 out of 5 starsEssential Zombie Viewing
By Sean T. Page on 18 April 2012
Format: DVD
There are some films that are required viewing for any zombie fan. The original 1980s version is on this list so too must be this re-make.

The new version is very much a re-imagining of the film. The zombies are faster, not the lumbering ghouls of old. There is possibly less slow-building tension and more racing horror but this re-make still ticks all the boxes.

Band of scared survivors - tick
Desperate stand in a shopping mall - tick
Stereotyped characters - tick
Plenty of gory zombie-action - tick

All the ingredients are there for a modern classic and that's what you get with this movie. The production is slick, the effects believable and the acting right on target.

There are some great twists in there, look out for the zombie baby. There are also some great characters such Andy stuck alone in the gun shop.

Romance and tension blossom in the Shopping Mall as the survivors realise that help is not coming and that they are on their own. It's a shame the raiders from the original didn't appear in this version but there are security guards to handle, basements to clear and some strange goings on in the baby department. You can add to this list converting a coach into a zombie-proof tank!

The story moves at pace, as do the racing zombies. The outbreak scenario is well-mapped out and believable. This movie is essential viewing, no question about it. Try not to compare it to the original, treat them like different films and enjoy.

5.0 out of 5 starsNot the original....but still fantastic!!
By Mr. N. England VINE VOICE on 23 Oct. 2004
Format: DVD
This remake has been handled exceptionally well.
Looking at other recent remakes (Texas Chainsaw Massacre, The Ring etc.) you're perfectly entitled to feel a little bit cautious as to whether this film is going to be much cop....I know I was! Especially given that the original is one of my favourite films.
Don't worry though. It's a great film! The feeling of dread may be missing but it's replaced by tons of adrenaline-fueled terror(Thanks to the change in Zombies' speed) and the special effects and gore are second to none. What this film also has is a great sense of humour.....which is just what's needed at certain points!
Overall, this remake is not better or worse than the original, it's different. It runs at a much different pace, emphasises have changed and it's far more about fun and thrills than doom and despair.
Go see it! I recommend it.

4.0 out of 5 starsAn excellent remake
By Bhaskar on 19 Oct. 2004
Format: DVD
At first I was worries that this would be a cheesy hollywood style remake of the original. This turned out not to be the case at all and I think this is a great film both as a remake and as a film in its own right. There are parallels with the orginal in terms of the script but enough orginality and some excellent black humour to keep you interested. The soundtrack is excellent and there is a complete change in the zombies movements. They move pretty fast now ! All in all, a great zombie film.

3.0 out of 5 starsThe same - only different
By O E J TOP 500 REVIEWERVINE VOICE on 4 Nov. 2009
Format: DVD
It's branded a re-make, but it tells a story that differs in several ways from the 1978 original. The odd thing is, if you go through the tick-boxes of what goes into a film - such as the script, the acting, the musical score, the pacing, the editing and more, you might easily conclude that in each individual area this film is better, or at least more professionally executed. Yet the finished product isn't as good as the cult classic of the seventies. For one thing, the horror isn't as horrifying, and it's much less shocking. It fails to disturb in any way, and is really rather forgettable. In a way, by calling it what it is, it's a curse on it for it will inevitably be compared to the first, when in truth it's a decent film that could have been better with a different title and just a different location - not in a shopping mall. One of the most obvious differences it does offer, however, is that the zombies don't walk around at 'normal' speed, and if anything this removes one of the key characteristics that makes zombies what they uniquely are.

Other story differences from its famous predecessor include a change of location from Pittsburgh to Milwaukee, a substantial increase in the number of living humans taking refuge within the shopping mall, and a very different portrayal of the pregnancy plot thread! Also, there was less of a socio-political message this time around with regard to consumerism, probably because it would no longer mean anything of substance thirty years on.

Three of the leading cast members from '78 have cameos in this re-make: Tom Savini, Ken Foree and Scott H. Reiniger.Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 starsWhen there's no more room in hell...
By Web' on 27 Oct. 2004
Format: DVD
When I first heard that they were planning to do a remake of the classic 'Dawn Of The Dead' I have to admit I was a little sceptical, but after watching I couldn't feel anything but impressed... it really is a good film! In the shock n horror department it is very 'in your face', it's violent and gory and it certainly doesn't pull any punches. The storyline moves along well, though I felt that unlike the original it didn't really give much indication as to how much time had passed, however this is a minor gripe and isn't enough to spoil an excellent horror movie.
So is it as good as the original? Well I'm not going to enter that arena, you can make up your own mind, but I'm willing to bet that there are an awful lot of diehard George A Romero fans out there who might slam this remake publicly... but secretly love it.
Highly recommended - especially for fans of the genre (like me!)
