Dawn of the Dead
Simply a fantastic zombie film. The opening of this film manages to perfectly convey a sense of chaos and confusion, while at the same time being *creepy as hell!* This feeling is sustained throughout the film right up to the final "home video" dénouement over the end credits. Definitely a fun ride!

The characters are (as in most horror films) largely disposable, but still manage to capture our interests without being overly formulistic.

The truest test - A certain (male) friend of mine (not naming any names) even admitted to having trouble sleeping after seeing this film...

RATING: R+
