Mar. 26th, 2004 01:59 pmWent and saw Dawn of the Dead with
daskreestof last night while
prez went bowling. Much fun. I haven't seen the original, so I can't compare the two... but I have to say I really liked it.
One thing I really loved were that the zombies were fast. Most other zombie movies I've seen, admittedly that's not huge amounts, but usually they have slo-mo zombies, which some how manage to catch up to you even if you're running full speed and they're just shuffling behind you (much like the cliché of the horror bad guy walking behind the running victim and still catching up too). These ones were like Olympic sprinters, which definitely makes them a much worse threat than they usually are and increases the suspense a lot too.
A very effective movie if you like this particular kind, and a lot of fun to boot :)
