Dawn of the Dead succeeded for the same reason The Thing and the Fly succeeded, they ended up in the hads of someone with some actual talent, and was passionate about the subject matter and cared enough about it to make it a good movie.
Have you ever seen the original Thing? It was ungodly boring. "Vegetable based man-creature runs amok on antarctic base. someone got bludgeoned."
I have actually yet to see all of the carpenter remake, but from what i have seen, it was pure genius. I will reserve full judgement until i have seen the whole Thing. (Get it?)
