	Dawn of the Dead (2004) -- The Most Portly and Stout Site on the Web
		But like all of Romero's three films ("Night of the Living Dead," "Dawn of the Dead" and "Day of the Dead") we are kept in the dark as to the origin of the plague, which makes the dead not dead for long.
		Dawn of the Dead 2 is already in the works, with director Zach Snyder and screenwriter James Gunn looking to follow up on their 2004 hit.
		As for the 2004 version of "Dawn of the Dead," nothing can compare to the 1979 classic and no future zombie-film will ever provide the shock value of the 1968 original, which started it all.

	Dawn of the Dead (2004 film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Dawn of the Dead is a loose remake, or "reimagining", of George A. Romero's 1978 film.
		The mall scenes of the film as well as the rooftop scenes were shot in the Thornhill Square mall in Thornhill, Ontario and the rest of the scenes were shot in the Aileen-Willowbrook Neighbourhood of Thornhill, Ontario.
		In the UK, both this film and Shaun of the Dead were originally scheduled to be released the same week, but due to the similarity in the names of the two films, UIP opted to push back Shaun's release by two weeks.

	Dawn of the Dead (2004) - Ninth Symphony Films Review
		Although the basis for the success of a film resides with its screenplay, the cast of this film deserves the first accolades as they were under a lot of pressure to "live up" to the standards of the cult-classic 1978 original.
		It's a welcome angle for a horror film to cast a female in the lead role (whose sole purpose isn't showing the audience her ample bosom) and actress Sarah Polley, already known for her strong performance skills in multiple genres will earn easy praise for taking a strong hold on the reins.
		Another outstanding element of the film is the make-up and choreography of the hoards of undead.

	Scope \| Issue 2 \| Film Reviews
		The film's release coincides with a recrudescence of zombies in recent popular culture, as the entertainment industries capitalise on the money-spinning potential of the undead.
		In Romero's film, two survivors escape from the mall in a chopper (this was a significant change to the original screenplay and novelisation of Dawn of the Dead, in which all the characters are killed).
		In this film, the pregnant Luda is reduced to her function as the carrier of a zombie baby, leaving the hardbody action to Ana.

	Dawn Of The Dead
		All of these films were remade because with the technology nowadays the film can look more polished, creepy and can give the audience a handful of scares.
		A horror films intentions are to make the audience enjoy what they witness, jump a few times from their seat and have a few chuckles.
		As a horror film alone Dawn Of The Dead 2004 is bad, when compared to the original it's a disaster.

	Dawn of the Dead (2004) (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The main reason I hated George A. Romero's 1978 version of Dawn of the Dead was the film, despite the cheesy makeup and ridiculous acting, took itself seriously.
		It's a film with a B-movie sensibility but an A-movie budget, and the 2004 Dawn is a scream because of it.
		Dawn of the Dead is your usual horror flick, but it's splashed with style and humor that is makes the illogical and disposable plot entertaining.

	Dawn of the Dead - Movie Commentary by Tony DiPasquale (proudestmonkeys.com)
		Dawn of the Dead, as it has been “re-imagined” by director Zach Snyder, is a slight improvement over Romero’s 1978 original, if only because moviemaking and technology have made significant advances.
		Independent film veteran Sarah Polley makes one of her first forays into mainstream fare with a dash of spunk, while Jake Weber signs on to play the sensitive male role that is a staple in modern films.
		Dawn of the Dead is a definite improvement over the vast majority of horror films which make their way to the big screen, but that does not mean that this update could not have been so much more.

	Dawn of the Dead (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Filmed for the most part in a Monroeville, Pennsylvania indoor mall, its most indelible scenes are of the pasty-skinned, nattily dressed undead blundering idiotically up and down escalators and past brightly lit storefronts while muzak plays soothingly over the shopping center intercom.
		Sarah Polley is Ana, a tired nurse at the end of her shift at the hospital, dealing with a self-absorbed physician, bantering with a friend, heading home with relief to an affectionate husband and an evening of TV and lovemaking.
		The end of normal life and the real beginning of this film comes when Ana and her husband awaken to the realization that someone is standing in the doorway of their darkened bedroom.

		It is the measuring stick and the launching pad for the specific sub-genre of horror known as the "zombie" film.

		When I saw the Night, Dawn and Day of the Dead films for sale on video, cheap, I snapped them up, having read a number of articles proclaiming these films to be rather good.
		The heavy clothing would allow the characters to potentially escape even if one or two zombies had them in their clutches: it allows closer interaction between the protagonists and the antagonists, and the tension of stripping off the heavy layers to see if any bites managed to penetrate.

	dawn of the dead - film review for zone-sf.com
		In the 2004 film the mall is a Tardis, the roofs lower on the outside than is suggested by the inside.
		The dead hurtle and much has been made of it, though the sprinting corpses were first introduced in Incubo sulla Citta Contaminata (aka: City Of The Walking Dead), found since in The Return Of The Living Dead and 28 Days Later.
		The dead are ferocious no matter what the shape or size, and a 300-pound woman racing towards you with her teeth bared is doubly threatening.

	Hollywood Gothique: Dawn of the Dead (1979) Film Review
		DAWN OF THE DEAD (1979) billed itself as “the most intensely shocking motion picture experience for all times,” and this was a rare instance of a film that lived up to its advertising hyperbole.
		The film established a new record for explicit on-screen carnage, but it also extended the scope of the original film, taking the living dead phenomenon out of the farmhouse and unleashing it upon the world at large.
		DAWN is a deliberate inversion of its predecessor.

		Dawn of the Dead is a remake of the 1978 film of the same title which was directed by zombie maven George A. Romero.
		Dawn of the Dead is one of those pleasant surprises.
		At a time when most films seem to be remakes or sequels which should never have been done, it is a remake of a sequel which is substantially better than the original.

		There they hole up for a while but soon realise they are sitting ducks and come up with a plan to break free and head to the marina, where they will board one of the survivors' yachts and sail off to a remote island where they should be safe.
		It's like a stand-alone film which starts as if the dead are rising right there and then, not taking it up a few years from Night of the Living Dead like the original did.
		The gore elements of the film are about as bad as one would expect from a major studio picture, possibly even pushing the boundaries in the process.

	A Fistful of Reviews - Dawn of the Dead (2004)
		This jarring prologue is only one of the many jarring moments of “Dawn of the Dead”, which has much better acting, much better special effects, a polished yet unsettling look and much faster zombies than the film it is remaking.
		The film still has more than enough good things going for it, and the final conflict between the humans and the undead is a doozy.
		“Dawn of the Dead” ain’t perfection, but it’s a hell of a lot closer than I expected it to be, with enough well done elements to make it worth recommending.

		Each film cell is unique, so the film supplied may be different to the one pictured, however we do not use unrecognisable street scenes, long shots or minor characters unlike some other suppliers.

	[ DreamLogic \| Dawn of the Dead (2004) Review ]
		However, with the Dawn of the Dead remake, George Romero has made sure to distance himself as much as possible from the project.
		Aside from the mall setting, a few lines of dialogue lifted from the original film, and cameos by the original castmembers, what you have is essentially an amalgamation of quite a few cult zombie films.
		I'd have to say the Dawn of the Dead remake is the most intellectually devoid, over produced action garbage to come out of the Hollywood machine since Bad Boys II.

	Dawn of the Dead (2004)
		Films pertaining to tales of the undead, of zombies that rise from their graves and walk the earth looking for more victims has always been a little niche in the larger horror genre.
		Because the originals are so, well, original, I prefer to treat the new version of Dawn of the Dead on its own merits rather than constantly comparing it to the original.
		This film focuses more of the disease that results in the zombies, a reflection of the fears we now have of bio-terrorism, Aids, West Nile, SARS and a plethora of other transmittable diseases.

	Amazon.com: Dawn of the Dead (Widescreen Edition): DVD: Mekhi Phifer,Sarah Polley,Ving Rhames,Jake Weber,Boyd ... (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The 2004 version of Dawn of the Dead throws you immediately into the horror/gore, and right from the onset of the opening credits you know that this film is no satirical statement.
		As you may have gathered by now, Dawn of the Dead is sorely lacking in character development, eschewing the social commentary and brooding apocalyptic mood for a non-stop gorefest that leave your heart in a perpetual state of pounding.
		Dawn 78 is slow but very fun, Dawn 04 is fast but kinda dull, thanks to the survivors' constant dialog of former days working at Best Buy, coffee, relationships and whatnot as they sit around "Hallow Grounds" coffee hut in the mall (which we don't see enough of due to too many closeups).

		revolutionized the horror film – it was the first independently made horror film to become a mass success, it broke down a huge number of taboo barriers and clichés with grim regard, it came loaded with looming metaphors of social collapse, as well as produced a great many imitators.
		And then there was Romero’s remake of the original, Night of the Living Dead (1990), as directed by Tom Savini, his makeup effects man on the sequels.
		And Zack Snyder certainly builds the film up to a reasonably intensive all-out climax in the last 15 minutes as the group make their break out of the mall and away to safety.

		The 2004 version of "Dawn of the Dead" is obviously based on George Romero's classic film.
		Savini also directed the forgettable remake of "Night of the Living Dead," and played the leader of the rouge motor cycle gang in the original "Dawn of the Dead".
		The 2004 version of "Dawn of the Dead" has all the components needed to create a great horror film.

	Dawn of the Dead (2004)
		The original Dawn of the Dead is an iconic horror film that defines its decade and people should see it.
		That film was the seventies this apparently is 2004.
		This film keeps the same sense of dramatic and often horrific character struggle that the original is known for, just at a quicker pace and thanks to modern technology there's a lot of awesome kills in this film.

	Dawn of the Dead (2004): Reviews
		Dawn of the Dead may depict the end of the world as we know it, but rarely has watching doom proved such a kick.
		Snyder’s film isn't likely to be considered a classic 20 years down the road like Romero's film is, but it's a winningly extreme episode in the ongoing adventures of Zombie and Harriet.
		It is, like most, an unnecessary remake, but the new, digitally boosted Dawn of the Dead brings it on with a 10-minute overture that might be the most upsetting tin-can apocalypse modern movies have ever seen.

	DVD Verdict Review - Dawn Of The Dead (2004)
		Although much of Romero's social commentary/satire has been excised (the film focuses more on trying to get the survivors out than their interactions at the mall), this is a slam-bang, go-for-broke flick that is equal parts grisly horror and action adventure.
		Dawn of the Dead will never replace Romero's original vision, but I don't think that was the intention anyhow—this new update is meant to be a thrill ride filled with fun and horror.
		Dawn of the Dead is presented in 2.35:1 anamorphic widescreen.

		Luckily Dawn of the Dead is actually quite good and captures the apocalyptic horror of the original nicely whilst at the same time, adding some very morbid humour and shocking gore.
		Dawn of the Dead is considerably more gory than the original but this doesn't distract the viewer from the real horror and hopelessness of the situation.
		Dawn of the Dead is a very entertaining 95 minutes providing you can stomach watching zombies give birth to zombie babies and exploding heads.
