Why it’s HorroRated
Zack Snyder's Dawn of the Dead is one of the best horror remakes ever made. The opening sequence remains one of the most effective outbreak depictions in the genre and the mall setting is used with wit and real tension. The ensemble cast is well-chosen and it honors Romero's consumer satire while delivering a legitimately terrifying survival film.
Synopsis
Zack Snyder's debut updates Romero's consumer satire while keeping the film moving fast enough that the social commentary never slows the horror. The opening sequence remains one of the most effective outbreak depictions the genre has produced. One of the better horror remakes of the decade.
