This movie is excellent, expecially as far as remakes go. The gore is done very well and the acting is great (a good performance from ving rhames). It doesn't however better the original, but is still a cut above a lot of the horror drivel being needlessly pumped out by studios looking to make a quick buck (most of the asian horror remakes pretty much, the ring was ok though). Zack snyder shows a real visual style and fast paced action, blood and brains will keep you amused for the duration.

Really this remake shouldn't exist, the original is near perfect so it was strange that somebody thought they could remake a classic. However Zack Synder has taken this film in a completely different direction to the original. It is so much more fast paced and action packed and it really does does benefit from this new interpretation of George A. Romeros classic.

I really love the opening of this film, when the female lead of the film (Sarah Polley) wakes up to find a child zombie biting the neck of her husband. Then, of course the husband is going after his wife and she then attempts to escape. Its really good stuff.

A must see in my opinion, if you love zombie films like I do. You will LOVE this film.

The original movie was is a all time classic, it is perfect in every way (apart from the blue painted zombies) To hear they would mess with a classic, was poinless ! Unless that is, it is made like this ! The plot is updated but this is a brilliant assault on your senses, gone are the slow moving Dead, in are pumped up Rabid Zombies. From the start, the film has a very different feel, The early signs of impending doom are handled well with the hospital scene, then the morning comes and all hell is let loose! The film never misses a beat, the shocks come thick and fast, and so do the exploding heads! also watch the end credits as you will see what happend to the survivors after they escape from the shopping mall. The film has shocking brutal violence, well written characters and is very well acted, and most of all scary An excellent remake of the excellent original, that no zombie fan should be without.
