News – Yassin Killed (2/2)

General

Dawn of the Dead rises to knock The Passion out of #1(finally). I saw it Sunday and all I have to say is, fully recommended. I didn’t see the original(though I looked for it earlier this weekend), but I have to give props to the remake. Its brutal, bloody, shocking and wonderfully exciting. It keeps a good momentum and never lets you feel too comfortable. Something is always up, even into the credits(do not leave immediately as the credits start to roll, there’s more as they roll). If you like zombie horror, do see this one. I’m not sure what fans of the original might think, but I don’t think they’ll be too disappointed. Appropriately, the theme song for this one is Disturbed’s Down with the Sickness.

Have you seen the original and the remake? I want to hear from you, what did you think of the new and updated offering?
