Slant’s 100 Greatest Horror Films – 2018 Edition (100 movies items)"Whether he knew it or not, George A. Romero was working toward Dawn of the Dead throughout the 1970s, his ambitions crystallizing into an operatic, seamy, tragic and trashy horror-action canvas. The film dramatizes cycles of revolution, following working-class characters as they get a taste of rarefied life, walling themselves off from the populace, in the traditions of our political leaders and celebrities, and resenting the people who come clawing at the gates for a taste of the wealth.

1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die (1970's) (158 movies items)" Notes: To be honest, pretty much like with 'Night of the Living Dead', even though I did like the damned thing, I can't say I found it really great though. In fact, I thought it was better than the first installment, sharper with a nice combination of horror, humor and satirical critic on our consumerist society. The main issue for me was the rather average acting and the directing which could have been better. Both were actually better in the remake in my opinion. In fact, I can't actually sa"

This was an important place in their lives." I just had to watch Dawn of the Dead this month. As much as I love Night of the Living Dead, this is a perfect example of an amazing sequel to an already great movie. It's one of my top 5 favorite movies and I wasn't sure if that would change after re-visiting it again, but by the time it ended I was like "Yeah, it's s"
Movies the giraffe watched in 2017: July (33 movies items)"First viewing - July 17th Finding out Romero died knocked the wind out of my sails on Sunday, and I’d intended to watch this that night. Unfortunately when I went to my shelves it wasn’t there & at that point I remembered I’d loaned it to a friend who never gave it back. And at the time I looked for it it was after 8pm so there was nowhere I could go to find another copy that night. Thus I went out right after work Monday & was rewarded when I found a used copy for $10 that was signed by "
Movies watched in 2017 (98 movies items)"13th of July, DVD Dawn of the Dead jatkaa siitä mihin edellinen jäi ja Romero menee tässä teoksessaan vieläkin pidemmälle: siinä missä Night of the Living Dead vakiinnutti zombie-elokuvat kauhugenren alalajina, Dawn of the Dead todisti ensimmäisen kerran miten paljon verta, suolenpätkiä ja ylenpalttista hupia voi aiheesta repiä. Tämän elokuvan gore on vanhentunut erittäin hyvin ja irtoraajat näyttävät reilusti inhottavammilta, mitä nykyajan CGI-splattereissä. Edeltäjänsä "
