Not sure about this one. There is no tension anywhere in this movie. Everyone act like children. When the raiders attack it even more stupid. I know its an old movie but this is more a bad comedy 5/10

This is a bigger and better sequel to Night of the Living dead. The effects and gore and a lot better. The zombies look a lot more dead but maybe that is just because it is in color. The music can be crazy at times where it is almost a comedy. The setting is much more fun. I think the best parts of the movie are when they are just going around the mall and taking things. It is a very interesting concept, what would you do in a mall by yourself? My only problem is it is too long and they take too long to get to the mall.

If you call yourself a horror fan and you haven't seen the original Dawn of the Dead, you need to get with the program immediately! No one messes with Romero, no one!

I first watched this back in the early, maybe mid-1980s...not long after it had been released in theaters (and then later on VHS) and at the time, I thought this was absolutely the coolest horror movie ever produced. Forty-five (45) years later, however, this is so awful it could _almost_ be conside More

This is one of the finest sequels ever, in that it's both of comparable quality with the original, yet is fundamentally different from it at the same time. Marvelous stuff, with aspects copied thousands of times over the past two generations, with no end in sight.

This and 'Salo, or the 120 Days More

Romero’s imaginative and thrilling zombie sequel

A decade after the excellent “Night of the Living Dead” (1968), writer/director George Romero offers up this exceptional sequel. The plague of reanimated corpses with a hunger for warm flesh is now global and society is increasingly breaking More

Been a while since I last watched this one, but with the new 4K UHD out, decided to give it another watch going with the Extended Cut. Still very well made with some great zombie effects and really liked the characters, Peter (Ken Foree), especially. I'm not a big fan of the zombie horror genre but More
