I just want you folks to know that even if you didn't care for Dawn of the Dead, I still like you, and if you were hungry I would feed you and give you something to eat, I would not hold your taste in movies against you and that's what friends are all about. Anyway, though...
The original DOTD is still one of my all time favorite horror flicks. I recently had someone trying to deconstruct my reasons for liking it to convince me that it wasn't any good, and to convince me that the remake was better, but (even though he's a perfectly nice person!) his efforts were meaningless to me.
Dawn of the Dead was made on a low budget and yes, it shows. But it's still a powerful story and it's well acted overall, too. It is one of the true classic films of the 70's, in my opinion.
