Dawn of the Dead - remade but is totally different from the original. The original is a classic and fantastic film. The remake is very hollywood. They should not have used the Dawn of the Dead name. The only similarity is the setting of a mall. The zombies move fast, unlike Romero zombies, and some parts are a bit far fetched, like the zombie baby. Generally a good movie, but with the title it has was expecting something much better.

Hope that helps - sounds like an interesting essay.
