	Description

	Picking up where NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD left off, and still offering no explanation of why the dead are walking the earth, DAWN OF THE DEAD plunges headlong into one of the most violent and original horror films ever made. After securing an apartment building overcome with flesh-eating zombies, two Philadelphia area SWAT team members, Peter (Ken Foree) and Roger (Scott Reiniger), flee to a television station, where they escape in the station's helicopter with Francine (Gaylen Ross) and Stephen (David Emge), two station employees. Seeking refuge from the zombies and the ensuing hysteria, they land on top of a Pittsburgh area shopping mall, despite the fact that the undead seem to be flocking there. What begins as a stop for supplies becomes a longer stay as the four become embroiled in a futile war within the mall to keep their flesh to themselves and remain alive. The film's relentlessly disturbing and innovative gore effects are one reason to see DAWN OF THE DEAD, but those who can stomach the endless barrage of blood and gnarled zombie faces will be rewarded--and possibly surprised--by what the film says about human nature and life within a consumer-based culture. Any aficionado of horror is likely to place the film high on their list of revered cinema.

Perhaps I simply cannot appreciate a good zombie flick when I see one, but George A Romero's 'Dawn of the Dead' does not impress me that much, even though I believe Night of the Living Dead is a...

I'm afraid I'm going to have to be blasphemous once again: I don't really care for DAWN OF THE DEAD. Sure, it is an entry in an overall series that I admire greatly, but for me it is just a grand...

George A. Romero is a master. I was 7 when I first saw this movie, and all I could think of is, OMFG! I finally found a DVD copy a year or so ago and said exactly the same thing. This movie tells...
