Dawn of the Dead remake ..advert online....
Being a huge fan of the original movies, for the last few months I`ve been dreading
the release of this remake (or any remake as it goes, but remaking DOTD is grotesquely
abhorrant...its a classic for *****s sake and should not be screwed around with by
anyone, least of all the guy responsible for that excremental Scooby Doo.)
However...
...having just seen the online ad for the remake, I must say that I MAY be devouring my words and entrails when this gets released. Never thought I`d say this, but it does look good. Ok, so the advert for Highlander 2 made it look cool..no, you cant go by ads, they mislead like hell.....but Holy **** am I excited about this......Please, dear Satan, dont let the Hollywood commercialisation machine screw this up.....

Remakes do not screw around with the originals. If you see the remake of DOTD, you can rewatch the original and see nothing has been changed with THAT film.

Bearing in mind that the original DotD is a satire of America`s zombie-like consumerism, I`ll be interested to see whether the remake translates this for today`s placed-products-purchasing Scream generation.

I saw the trailer a few weeks ago and have to say I thought it looked awful....kinda resident evil meets 28 days later (which I thought was a terrible film) You never know, I might like the remake ..but as a big fan of the origional, Im getting ready for a huge
disappointment.....

Yeah the new trailer is looking pretty nice actually. Might not be the greatest ever horror film but can`t do the original any harm.
