‘Dawn of the Dead’ being remade

NEW YORK (Variety) — Commercials wizard Zack Snyder will direct the remake of George Romero’s horror classic “Dawn of the Dead,” digging up a June start date for the zombie redo.

James Gunn (“Scooby-Doo”) has scripted a reinvention of a 1979 film that cost $640,000 and became a highly profitable cult favorite. The picture, Romero’s sequel to the groundbreaking “Night of the Living Dead,” revolved around a swarm of slow-moving cannibalistic corpses who snack on the inhabitants of a shopping mall.

It featured a healthy helping of humor along with the gore, down to the notion that, even after death and partial decomposition, consumer instincts would be strong enough to propel a reanimated corpse right to the mall. The update aims to place a greater emphasis on action and a young cast.

“The story benefits from a larger canvas, and the fact that malls have changed so much,” said rights controller Richard P. Rubinstein, who produced the original, “There are all kinds of things we can use, down to the food courts. George did a lot with a pedestrian mall in Monroeville, Pennsylvania, where the only real highlight was a hockey rink.”

Though “Dawn of the Dead” will mark his feature debut, Snyder has a long reel of European commercials featuring stars such as Catherine Zeta-Jones, Robert De Niro, Harrison Ford and Sean Connery. He was once set to direct “S.W.A.T.,” only to depart because he wanted to make an R-rated film.

“Dawn of the Dead” will be distributed in the United States and most of the world by Universal Pictures, where the film’s producer, Strike Entertainment, is based.

    You sound just like everyone else! This is NOT a REMAKE, it is a RE-INVENTION of a movie. Differant characters, differant script, differant movie, period. The name is simply to widen it’s appeal, as zombie movies aren’t in popular demand anymore, or at least not as much as they used to be. There usually just isn’t enough budgetting to make a REALLY good zombie movie, however, Universal picked up this movie because of the NAME, it has been packed with stars,(Rhames, Phifer, Wieger, Polley, etc.) and it features guest spots by some of the original characters, (the actors who played Roger, Peter, Blade, and Steven are all rumored to have a cameo).

    Give it a chance, instead of a remake, how about wrapping your brain around the thought of it being just a new zombie movie?

  5. Nicholas Bird Says:

    Ok, so he isnt making a new movie. So what? Everyone loved DOTD first time round, so why not remake it with better graphics/script/actors and let it appeal to a much wider audience than the original. Give it a chance.

  6. Dj Xavier Michaels Says:

    I am covering the DAWN remake and I am headed to the set today. I have had mixed feelings about DAWN 04, and at one time signed the petition. If your interested in seeing the set a little bit, and some BTS photo’s goto:

    At least give it a chance, It will never replace the original….. and if it does well…. Maybe GAR can get some big money for DEAD 4

    If Tom Savini doesn’t do the make-up effects on this “remake,” I question the moneys-worth of seeing it.

    There is no logical reason for a remake. It would make more seance to re-release the original with an enhanced digital stereo-surround soundtrack with more GOBLIN music than library cues and restored cut scenes. Instead of making all these Romero rip-offs, studios should finance another Romero Dead flick the way George wants it to be.
    George Romero is the father of the dead and I’m not a fan of Resident Evil and this whole young cast idea is . . . Hollywood.

    This is to all the people that are petitioning to end the filming of the Dawn remake.

    Honestly, you guys need to stop pissing and moaning about a remake. It was gonna happen eventually and here it finally is.

    I love the original. Nothing will be as good as it, but we have to deal with the fact that someone wanted to play around with the storyline and who cares? Maybe it will be good in its own sense. Only we will find out.

    So deal with it. And just enjoy it, even if it sucks. Because a remake isnt going to hurt the original. Because an original can never change.

    I think the real reason you want it all to end is because you’re afraid of the outcome. Not because it might be bad, but because it might be good. You’re afraid that it might be better than the original (which I highly doubt) but i think you fear it in some ways, because then your precious Dawn will be looked down upon. And it wont be. So, again, enjoy, and stop your bitching.

    wow theirs some really pathetic people out there. I can’t believe they’re actually putting petitions up against this movie. I mean how often do we get a zombie show now days? err how about never! Stop the bitching and enjoy the fucking movie. If you dont like the idea of a remake then don’t watch it. Everything great from long ago is being remade anyways so just get use to it. example: texas chainsaw massacre (sucked monster ass)

    Well, from what I understand, these zombies ‘run’, and anyone who knows anything about zombies will tell you they DO NOT run! Thats why I am very disappointed about the film, even before it opens.

    Zombies do run, haven’t you seen “28 days later”? That was one of the best things about that film, the zombies could run, had super human strength and rage. It added much more to what is normally expected from a zombie film. I didn’t really find Dawn of the Dead scary, certainly not in the parts where they’re WALKING passed the zombies, now it’s been turned around. 28 days Later was a success in England (where it was filmed) dunno about the states. If you haven’t seen 28 days later then I highly recommend it.

  30. Anonymous Says:

    The fact that the zombies run in this movie shows that the creators are tryig to add some variety to this movie. I like that they are trying to experiment a little with the zombies, trying to find what the audience will go for. You guys happen to be the crowd that doesn’t like it. And so be it. I loved “28 days later” and I thought the zombies running gave it sortof a scare, not knowing if the heroes would make it. But in the outcome, if it isn’t a good movie, and a bust like “texas chainsaw massacre” ,than maybe the directors will learn their lesson.

  31. jr. Says:

    How can you guys say that this movie is going to be a bad zombie flick. I gaurentee this movie is going to be awsome. I liked the original dawn of the dead flick and it was sweet,it doesnt really matter if the zombies walk or run. As long as theres blood and guts. Now thats what makes a horror movie.

  32. bipolar Says:

    hey guys… dawn of the dead is a trash movie, the old, new anyway! a big stupid violent and “social” movie…. bah..
    the remake use the same trash and obsolete undead movie sux, but, with better FX and the gay savini and other craps for the crap masterpiece.

    i loved the original, but i liked this one even more. Get over yourselves! Its a good movie, not a religeon! Why do you think Romero hasnt made a zombie movie lately? People need to come see it for him to get the money to do it! I’m glad this movie was so successful because now there’s a better chance that Romero will get to make one.

    And I dont know if you’ve noticed, but Romero DOES still make movies. He just has a life beyond zombies, unlike you pathetic freaks apparently do.

    Honestly, the original was good, but this is a even better in my opinion, the fact that the zombies can run is also a extra chill factor, poeple need to stop moaning about it.

  37. emi DAWN Says:

    I saw the new version first and was impressed. But, when i saw the original, i realised how much better it is. It’s a classic…….i just love the classic ‘dumb-ass’ style zombies rather than ones which seem to be able to jump and smash through walls. Even though the new 1 is gud, i hav to say that the romero version is a TRUE zombie film!!!

  38. Shaddoe Says:

    Everbody just relax a bit, and take a breath.
    this Remake,is just that …a Remake.
    It does have some intersting twists to the story.
    But it does not touch the Original.
    It’s not a Bad movie..it’s just that the majority
    of the people are just die hard Romero fan’s.
    There is nothing wrong with that.
    Surpassing a movie like “OG”DAWN”..is almost impossible.
    they could not have duplicated the original version for obvious reasons..
    INSURANCE COMPANIES..
    Try riding around the inside of a shopping mall
    on motorcycles. that’s one scene they would not do.
    The Remake is a fresh idea, but i do not think they intended it as a replacement in any way.
    Watch both movie’s and you be the judge..
    after all..”Beauty is in the Eye of the beholder”.

    Everbody just relax a bit, and take a breath.
    this Remake,is just that …a Remake.
    It does have some intersting twists to the story.
    But it does not touch the Original.
    It’s not a Bad movie..it’s just that the majority
    of the people are just die hard Romero fan’s.
    There is nothing wrong with that.
    Surpassing a movie like “OG”DAWN”..is almost impossible.
    they could not have duplicated the original version for obvious reasons..
    INSURANCE COMPANIES..
    Try riding around the inside of a shopping mall
    on motorcycles. that’s one scene they would not do.
    The Remake is a fresh idea, but i do not think they intended it as a replacement in any way.
    Watch both movie’s and you be the judge..
    after all..”Beauty is in the Eye of the beholder”.
