YesAsia Editorial 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.

"...DAWN pummels the viewer with a series of ever-more-grisly events....Romero's strong suit is pacing and technical fluidity. His film has a keen visual sense that tersely extracts the maximum from all the bloodletting..." - Sege. (Variety Film Critic), Variety, 04/18/1979

"Fundamentally satirical, DAWN also has an essential -- but rarely remarked upon -- sadness." - Chris, Willman (Film Critic), Entertainment Weekly, 03/19/2004

"Romero himself is said to prefer this tauter version, which balances its low-budget gore with a sharp satire on consumer society..." - James, Bell (Sight and Sound Critic), Sight and Sound, 12/01/2004

"[S]till highly effective, and as slyly funny as gory." - Peter, Hogan (Uncut Critic), Uncut, 12/01/2004

A MUST-WATCH Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
To say that it is a brilliant film would be a mere understatement; the film is, in truth, a masterpiece of the genre. The soundtrack, displaying a carefully selected host of first-class musicians (Johnny Cash, Jim Carroll, a.s.o.), works in tune with an apocalyptic vista (an otherwise banal American town, suddenly ennobled by an apparently gratuituous explosion of violence). The finale is flabbergasting: a pure tribute to Romero's own eschatological scenario, found in the 1978 original version. All in all, a must-watch!

You can't imagine!! Customer Review Rated Bad 1 - 1 out of 10
This is no doubt one of the worst movies I ever seen. The plot does not make any sense and ending is just retarded. Who ever paid for filming this movie must be insane or he/she havent read the script for this "movie". Dont waste your time seeing or buying this movie, it totally blows..
