Watched "Saved!" and "Dawn of the Dead"(2004) Yesterday.
They were both great! "Dawn of the Dead" was smart, gross, and had me on the edge of my seat throughout.

Now I'm rocking to Somnambulist by BT, getting ready to pick the kids up at school.

"Yeah, yeah..."

1. Good Flicks, the both
Some may ridicule "Dawn" but I found it highly entertaining.

2. Loved them both
I thought Saved was very funny and very clever. And Dawn was great. I watched it twice, I enjoyed it so much. Loved the ending.

3. Enjoyed both myself
I was such a fan of the original DOTD that I didn't think I would like the remake, and yes, when I saw it in theater, I left disappointed. But then I saw it again on DVD, and realized that it actually stood very well on its own. My problem was I was always comparing it to the original. I love the remake now.

Saved was excellent as well. I have to wonder what is going on in our country that we keep producing mass entertainment like this but our population still seems stuck in the dark ages. Weird.

5. I guess I don't see a lot of zombie movies.
I've seen Night of the Living Dead, Return of the Living Dead, 28 Days Later, and the New "Dawn of the Dead". Never saw the original.

Sorry you didn't like it.

I scare pretty easy at those flicks, anyway.

(not yet out on video) I dont know many who liked it, but I found it very entertaining. 28 days later was awesome IMO.

I don't remember seeing her before and I really liked her in "Dawn."

9. My friend seen that movie and it gave him an idea for an interesting Q
"Would you shoot me if I were a zombie like the ones in 'Dawn of the Dead'?"
