Zombies movies at this era seems to not frighten some audiences but the tends to scare people with faint of heart. But does George Romero's Dawn of the Dead will scare anybody? Well sure but then again, its not very scary at any standpoint in the movie. But its a bit better than the Resident Evil movie series where the zombies look like almost ridculous.

George Romero' Dawn of the Dead is a sequel from the 1968 orignal, Night of the Living Dead which became a definitive horror film of its time. Eleven years later, he would unleash the most shocking motion picture experience for all times. As modern society is consumed by zombie carnage, four desperate survivors after what is come to be a Hippie liberation from its hideout comes zombies, barricade themselves insider a Pittsbourgh shopping mall to battle the flesh-eating hordes of the undead. After they liberated as much zombies in the mall, they spend their time getting as much rations and supplies as possible to live this zombie-infested mall. This is the ferocious horror classic, featuring landmark gore effects by Tom Savini, that remains one of the most important - and most controversial - horror films in history. The effects in this movie seems kinda cool, as you experience gorely headshots and decapitated heads, as you venture towards the storyline. Its just amazing how the effects were in this movie, in that era of technology seems to be a nostaglia.

The zombie designs of this film seems to be a bit better than the Resident Evil movie series, it least they look more menacing. This movie is also kinda of a comedy where the survivors always toy with them and proved to be hilarious at times. But with the hippies come and wretched their mall, DAMN YOU HIPPIES! its not funny and its totally wrong and annoying. The dialogue in this movie is horrible, as you see the struggles on the four survivors in this mall being kinda dumb at times. Thats a scene where an army, police force and hippies enjoying life in a zombie infested world, just enjoying life, drinking beer and making havoc and it proves to be retarded and annoying. How come they miliary just friggen prepare themselves and don't enjoy doing dumb things.

Overall, John Romero's Dawn of the Dead is one of those movies that its expectally scary and gruesome at times. The ending makes a cliffhanger to its the next sequel. Its quite indeed a popcorn movie to enjoy. John Romero is purely a genius of making the movie. Fans and people who want to see this movie should. This is a Reccommended Purchase!
