Dawn Of The Dead - First 10 Minutes on USA last night

[Mr_Vindictive]

Did anyone other than myself catch this?

I caught about the last five minutes of it, and I must say that I'm pretty disappointed.  This film is obviously not going to be anything like the original; as if anyone thought that it would be.  I expected the opening to be slow, scary and grueling.  What I got was fast directing, running zombies, and explosions.

I must say that I was highly disappointed eventhough I had expected it.  My wife was psyched and now wants to go see it this weekend.  I just hope the rest of the film will be better.  I'm going to see it, if only to be able to b***h about how bad it was later.

I caught the last 4-5 minutes of it. I liked it. I was lookin forward to this movie before, but after seeing that preview I want Friday to be here all ready.

I like what someone said on another board--they said that if this movie had some other title and wasn't a remake people would be all going nuts over it right about now.  

I didn't get to see the preview....no cable here.

*SPOILERS*

I saw the full 10 minutes, and overall I thought it was average. Dissapointed with some details though such as people being infected quite fast as well as the fast moving zombies. Also they shot the  movie in Toronto, but they didn't set the story there (like with all movies). I personally thought that would have been neat if they had. I'm also going to have to agree with what someone had said in the other thread about not being able to tell if the zombies were zombies or just crazy people. Then on the other hand, it had been awhile (a few years) since I saw DOTD78, and seeing the ads on TV for the new DVD was an exciting viseral experience. Like it came out of nowhere.
