I'd have to say this version is average at best. In the original you get to know the characters. In this one they keep introducing new ones before they bother to flesh out the characters they already have. I just didn't care about any of them.

And what's the deal with having to be bitten to come back as a zombie? If you die any other way, you stay dead. So how did it start, then?

I did like the rooftop relationship they had with the guy in the gun shop though. That was an interesting touch.

Not really a bad movie, just not all that good.

I went in to this movie expecting to be disappointed, but must say I was impressed after it was over. While not as good as the original, it is one of the best horror films to come out in a long time.

I agree. I liked the original better, but not by much.

This movie shouldn't even really have been a remake. It should have been an original movie because it was nothing like the original. 9/10

I saw this weekend at the $1.00 show and I really liked it but I didn't like the end that much. The propane trip was kind of dumb but over all 2 thumbs up

I happen to love Dawn and 28 Days later. I still dont understand why so many people say that movie sucked. I jhavent heard any reasons other than they didnt like it.... That isnt a reason.



I'm not saying that you CANT hate it, i am just curious why.
