Zack's Zombies


Dawn of the Dead (2004)
Dir - Zack Snyder

When I saw this on opening night I was ready to hate. Still, I let my mind open and enjoyed what I saw. Romero's original is my favorite zombie film and one of my all time favs so it could never live up to this. Snyder's version, written by James Gunn, is way more action than horror and the only real connection to the original is that it's set in a mall. It is fun to see Modern Family's Phil Dunphy (Ty Burrell) as a dirty, sex obsessed asshole.

I'm not even going to get into the whole fast vs slow zombie debate. Because the winner is obviously slow.
