Slightly off topic, but if you really want to see a film that 28 Days Later was derived from, watch The Omega Man with Charleton Heston. It's very similar.

i am legend --> last man on earth & omega man --> night of the living dead --> all modern zombie flicks.
I still think 28 Days rips off Night Of The Comet in almost every element.

i'll hafta check that out.
OMG finally got to see DawnOTD last night and my jaw was dropped the whole movie
Fast Zombies, Cameos from the original cast, Great soundtrack.
I Loved It!! Watched it till the very last credit
Them getting to an island was a nice final chapter. Zombie leno was clever, more celebs would have been funny.
Can't wait to watch it over and over!
Zombies!!
:lol: :D :P
Yup I'm gonna hafta download it.
It was THAT good
downloading (crappy audience version) now

How can you all be so wrong?
Pardon me for contradicting all you movie buffs, but having just watched dotd2004, I'm really dissapointed.
OK, I downloaded the crappy cam, and must say how glad I am that I did'nt waste my time by going to the cinema to see this drivel.
You are wrong in saying that the original acting was poor, I personally think that DOTD George Remero actors did a very good job with the script that they were given, They were a lot more convincing than that muppet baby!
Watch the first version AFTER the new one, that way you wont be too let down.
Was'nt the original dawn of the dead low budget? it did look like it.
The remake starts out well, and just looses it after woman wakes from car crash. (dont know her name, dont care)
They should'nt use the name if its not a true remake, what was wrong with the plot for the first? when i heard that they were remaking dotd I was hoping that, with todays effects and better techniques, that it would be , I dont know,, BETTER!
P.S. was'nt that baby a bit like Alice Cooper? billion dollar baby's
Some of you might like it,

Sorry Gutter, never meant to say that you diss'd DOTD, just that the new version is a poor remake when you look at the material they had available to work with.
No offence intended, but did'nt somebody comment on the original acting?
No? Must be seeing things.
Dawn of the dead Romero style head shot to anyone who dares besmirch the wonderous film that is Dawn of the dead.
:D :lol:
D2D
the thing is, is thats its not a remake, its a re-envisioning of the original. I love the original, and this new one is ust as good, you cant look at them in the same light. the only things they have in common are the title and the mall. thats it. they could have called it "Zombie's take a crap in your backyard" and it would still be as good. but because it shares the name, every1 will automaticly assume that its a sceen for sceen remake.
D
not enough gore... so disopointed i wanted to see some cannibal holocast style gore, the movie should of been longer, where the fuck is there helicpter? i like how the movie keeps funny, with the onel liners like in the first one. overall the movie should of been more gothic, dark, grusome, id give it a 7/10 rating B)
DOTD the original an the new 1 are both good the remake is a lil better!,cuz they were faster but ,the original was better because they had a gun store ,but suck they ain't take all the guns :angry:
but cant wait to see resident evil 2 should be jus like it somewhat?
Lol i think i dled the same version. Couple cell phones ringin throughout the movie and everytime a zombie got killed people kept clappin, lol funny shit.Quote:

Resident Evil 2 will have 1 big disadvantage, to stay true to the Game and the first movie, the Zombie will have to be slow, now that fast Zombies are kinda the norm and have proven to be creepier and deadlier, RE2 will have a run for her money. but I am anktiously waiting for RE2 also. Played all the games and from what I've read on-line it should kick major ars. I'm hoping that its gonna be better than Dawn of the Dead where we will see more of the destroyed city. Thats the one thing I didnt like about Dawn, there wasnt all that much of a survival horror theam to the story. it was just "we're in a mall, lets stay here for as long as we can, then get out or die trying.Quote:

Not sure who started saying that the original zombies ,(DOTD1) were slow, but I remember that they were only slow until they grabbed for you and then they were fast! I thought they were a bit like crocs, slow and lumbering, but when the time to strike comes, BANG! MUNCH! RENDING THROAT! MUCH SPURTING BLOOD!!Quote:

It appeared to me that they were just slow to conserve energy.
They go slow in the new one as well, only going fast when they spot prey.
Still, not even as good as day of the dead .

Day of the Dead was the weakest of the three, I liked the idea and some of the scenes were quite good. But as has been mentioned elsewhere a lot of the time it is just people shouting at each other waiting for zombies to kill them.
I really enjoyed the remake it totally blew me away, and even though I was a huge fan of the original (it's in my Top Ten films) I can see this becoming my favourite of the two. It had to take new ideas and work with them, remaking DOTD too closely would have been a backwards step imo.
Zombie films have seen a ressurection recently (pun intended) and I can't wait to see a remake of Day of the Dead. Hope they get it right this time.
edit: Zombie Oasis? I remember a film called Oasis of the Zombie, is that the same one?

what's zombie oasis?
Alright, If I remember right, Zombie Oasis fetured an Oasis! in the desert which was stumbled apon, somehow by some teenage boys and girls.
I think that they find a buried german halftrack at the Oasis, and I remember one of the girls goes skinny dipping in the oasis, probably gets munched by a german soldier Zombie.
Then the Zombie germans start rising from the sand all around and have a teenage feast.
there is more to it than that, but I watched it about 20 odd years ago, so have forgotten a lot. ;)
I think it was dubbed from Italian.
Also remember Zombie Lake?
Cockboy, not gay
P.S. might have also been called Oasis Of The Zombies.
oh man. nazi water-zombies. that's a whole mini-genre in itself. but the only one of those i ever saw (nazi zombies, swimming nazi zombies...) that i thought was any good was Shock Waves (from the guy who later directed Return Of The Living Dead Part 2 and Meatballs... uh... Part 2). and even that one was kinda less-than-great.
i much prefer the "fishmen" movies over the swimming nazi zombie movies. Island Of The Fishmen (aka Screamers) and Humanoids From The Deep are both classic. now that's a genre worth reviving in big-budget fashion. ;)
and how does this tie in with Dawn Of The Dead? funny that you should ask. Island Of The Fishmen was filmed at the same location and same time as Lucio Fulci's Zombi 2 (aka Zombie Flesh Eaters), the unofficial italian sequel to Dawn Of The Dead, and Richard Johnson appears in both of 'em. :lol:

after reading the review, it doesn't sound bad
can't wait for more zombie movies to roll out after the success of DawnOTD (2004)
oasis of the zombies and zombie lake are both pretty wretched. they're just boring 1970s-style soft porn with very little action, zombies, or nudity. actually, i'd go so far as to say the complete works of both jess franco and jean rollin (the directors of those two movies) amount to little more than a huge pile of boring soft porn with a few shots of monsters edited in. if you decide that you wanna waste your money to see those, you've been given fair warning. :lol:
