A 2004 remake of the 1978 zombie classic starring Ving Rhames and Sarah Polley, directed by Zack Snyder in his feature debut, and written by James Gunn.Ana (Polley), a Milwaukee nurse, finishes a long shift at her hospital where — along with other bits of Foreshadowing — she discusses a patient who was bitten in a bar fight. After work, she chats briefly with a cute neighbor child, then returns to her suburban home and her waiting husband. The next morning, she wakes up to find her zombified young neighbor in her house; the girl kills her husband, who then rises as a zombie and comes after Ana. Ana escapes in her car, only to learn that, overnight, the town has fallen into chaos.A living human attempts to carjack her vehicle, causing her to panic, drive off the road, crash into a tree, and knock herself unconscious. When she awakens, she meets up with a police officer by the name of Kenneth, and then a small group of survivors more-or-less led by jack-of-all-trades Michael (Jake Weber). They all break into a nearby shopping mall, where they are confronted by a trio of mall security guards, led by the surly C.J. Via binoculars and dry-erase boards, they also "meet" gun-store owner Andy, who is stranded alone in his shop across the mall's zombie-infested parking lot. The guards are eventually disarmed, and some more survivors are let into the mall. For a while, the group wallows in the mall's materialism, but the situation finally deteriorates to the point where the group decides to reinforce a pair of parking shuttles, drive to the local marina and escape out to an island on Lake Michigan.Despite (or perhaps because of) some heavy differences from the original, many fans of George A. Romero find it to be a surprisingly good take on the material, and there are long-simmering debates among horror fans over which version is better.Zack Snyder's later Netflix movie and franchise Army of the Dead is not related to this film, or any of the other Living Dead Series movies for that matter.

comment
Scenery Censor: A bizarre example is present on the US Director's Cut DVD, where a scene is censored by the addition of gore to cover up nudity. CGI blood smears on the wind shield of a car were added so that they obscure the view on the breasts of a nude woman walking past the car. This is especially bizarre since the DVD in question is unrated and features at least one other topless scene, which remained uncensored.

Remake Cameo: Ken Foree (Peter from the original), Scott Reiniger (Roger) and Tom Savini (Blades) all have cameos in the remake, playing, respectively, a televangelist, a general, and a sheriff who appear on the TV. Gaylen Ross (Francine) doesn't appear in the remake, but she gets one of the department stores named after her.

I Love the Dead: Part of the emergency broadcast shown on the DVD showed a bunch of teenagers who had kidnapped a recently zombified hot girl from their school and tied her to a bed so they could have sex with her. Even if they weren't bitten in the process, chances are still likely they'd be infected anyway.

A House Divided: Inverted. The characters start off at each other's throats but seem to grow closer as they spend more time in the mall. They're arguably Fire-Forged Friends by the end. The mall still gets overrun in the final act because Steve decided to go fetch some coffee and not do his role in the plan to save Nicole, just to be a dick.

Aborted Arc
 Dawn of the Dead (2004) / int_23698fa8
comment
Aborted Arc: In a Deleted Scene, it's established that infected blood is the culprit in turning people into zombies. Ana is clearly seen washing infected blood off of her hands in a mall water feature that, later, Kenneth falls into, and the movie even makes a point of emphasizing an injury to Kenneth that cuts open his arm in the infected water. Despite this, nothing further comes of this incident and Kenneth does not turn into a zombie. This actually might be a remnant of the original script for the remake, where the zombie plague would have both been spread by infected blood AND would've had supernatural origins rather than virological ones. These two scenes would then have been fitting as evidence of dismissing it as a virus and open up for other possibilities behind the zombie plague.

comment
Uncertain Doom: Like the original, the survivors eventually lose all contact with the outside world, making it uncertain how many, if any, other surviving groups there are, or the state of the rest of the world. Unlike the original though, there's no biker gang, so we never see any other survivors other than the cast themselves and Andy. However, the DVD feature "The Lost Tape", which is a video diary by Andy, includes text stating that the tape had been found by survivors passing through the city, meaning there are at least other survivors out there.

Took a Level in Kindness: C.J. took one, or maybe even more. At first, he tried to turn away 5 survivors, but then agreed to let them in by locking them up. Then, he threatens to shoot them when they try to rescue a second wave of survivors, but he is subdued and gets locked up himself before being released to help restore power to the mall. Eventually, he learns how to cooperate with the rest of the group and gains their mutual trust, significantly toning down his jerkass behaviour. Ultimately in the end he makes the Heroic Sacrifice to help the few survivors get onto a boat blowing up the zombies, but also perishes in the ensuing explosion.

 Dawn of the Dead (2004) / int_3dfdc686
comment
Time-Passes Montage: After Frank turns and is put down post-reanimation, the film switches to the montage of various characters killing time, mimicking similar sequence from the original movie. Unlike the original, this one is purely played for fun and has an upbeat ending.

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome
 Dawn of the Dead (2004) / int_3ed23024
comment
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: Anything related with the chainsaw. It's a zombie movie, so it's going to be super-effective, right? Wrong. Not only it barely works for its intended role (the zombies just ignore being cut, while it takes some extra effort to do so), but it gets majority of people in one of the buses killed either directly or by causing a fatal crash. Since Steve is the only person that owns a yacht and presumably knows how to sail, once he's dead, the remaining people end up using only motor propulsion, with no clue how to operate a sailing vessel, which is a bit more complex than "put the engine on and steer in the desired direction". So not only they are clueless about using their biggest advantage of sails, they also quickly run out of gas and are semi-stranded.

Beware the Living
 Dawn of the Dead (2004) / int_3ef2e095
comment
Beware the Living: Heavily downplayed when compared with the original, but still present. Ana's neighbor holds her at gunpoint, another survivor tries to carjack her, and the nude woman wandering on the freeway is implied to be a rape victim. Otherwise averted, mainly because after the opening there are no other survivors except the main characters and Andy, or at least none that appear on screen.

Downer Ending: Andy’s "Lost Tape" featurette concludes with him becoming zombified after spending the majority of the short holding up in his gun shop, only to get bitten while attempting to recover supplies. Kenneth ends up decapitating his short lived companion with a shotgun blast in the film. The movie itself has one. The survivors manage to escape to a secluded island... Only to find it's already overrun with zombies. Just as the horde advances on them, who have nowhere to run to, roll credits.

Sex Signals Death: Luis, Monica and Steve all have sex on-screen and all die horrible deaths. Averted with Ana, who is one of the survivors, despite having sex with Luis in the opening - which is also the reason why they've missed an emergency broadcast. Though it's very possible she dies in the ending, so does everyone else.

Impromptu Fortress: Downplayed, even when compared with the original.

Fleeing for the Fallout Shelter: Less than a few hours after the Zombie Apocalypse begins, Ana, Kenneth, and a few other survivors are left hurriedly searching for shelter after being caught out in the open. Fortunately, they happen upon a deserted shopping mall soon after, but they still have to get inside... and while they're getting a door open, prowling zombies happen to notice them, forcing the survivors to finish jimmying the door in record time before the worryingly swift zombies catch up with them.

In fact, numerous zombie media since mid-2010s did include the use of drones, even toy ones.

No Object Permanence
 Dawn of the Dead (2004) / int_6f76ae8d
comment
No Object Permanence: The zombies in this film have an interesting trait. Anna's husband, once infected, begins attacking her, but when she closes the door (so fast she didn't even have time to lock it at first) her husband stops attacking as he seemingly forgets she exists for a brief moment. It's only when she makes enough noise that he begins attacking again. The zombies outside the mall also count; breaking into a mall, with a horde as massive as theirs could easily break into a mall with pretty much no resistance (try watching Black Friday shopping rushes if you want examples), but the entire crowd, even when both Andy and the main group of survivors are taking pot shots at them, seemingly don't know they exist at all. This is in stark contrast to the original, where part of securing the mall included using a pair of trucks to block off the entrance from the main horde, and trapping the ones already right in front of the doors so they wouldn't have the leverage to break through. Here, it doesn't even seem to occur to the zombies to try.

Adaptational Badass: The zombies are a much bigger threat in this movie than in the original, and manages to basically end civilization overnight rather than over the course of weeks. They're faster, stronger and seem to retain slightly more intelligence than in the original Dawn, where that usually only applied to the recently turned.

Bolivian Army Ending: The survivors take Steve's yacht and leave, but the credits reveal that, as soon as they hit the island, a massive horde of zombies bear down on them - and all they've got are some shotguns. "We Interrupt This Program" ends with the anchorman tearfully telling his family on air he was coming home before the news cut to EAS broadcasting. Taking into consideration how the streets have become over-ridden with reanimates, it is left ambiguous if he will make it home at all, much less if his family would still have been at home or even alive to have seen the broadcast.

Nightmarish Nursery: Andre sets up a nursery for his heavily pregnant wife Luda in a deserted baby-needs shop, claiming one of the cribs and a mobile for his soon-to-be-born child. Unfortunately, Luda was bitten earlier and eventually transforms into a zombie about halfway through the film - then gives birth to a zombie baby. For added horror, a shootout occurs in the makeshift nursery when Norma discovers what's happened, resulting in the deaths of all four characters.

Fallout Shelter Fail: Security guards CJ, Bart, and Terry are using the mall as their own personal refuge where they can ride out the Zombie Apocalypse in comfort; after some early conflict, they are soon joined by Ana and several other survivors. Despite the growing horde of zombies outside, the mall provides the characters with enough food, shelter, and luxury to be illustrated in a Good-Times Montage. Unfortunately, with civilization still in free fall it's not long before power to the mall goes out, forcing the survivors to descend into the zombie-infested garage in an insanely risky attempt to start the mall's emergency generator. The fallout of this incident ultimately prompts the survivors to begin making plans to escape the mall and make a new shelter for themselves on one of the islands in the nearby lake...

Our Zombies Are Different
 Dawn of the Dead (2004) / int_8ba9512b
comment
Our Zombies Are Different: The zombies in this version not only overwhelm victims through sheer numbers, they are capable of running and jumping with no sign of exhaustion, and once they target a living person, they will attack and keep up the pursuit until they or their target are dead, or another target of opportunity appears, making them much more dangerous than the shambling zombies of the original. The slight standoff they have with Kenneth on the stairs near the end, with them slowly approaching and seeming to try and find a way round him, also implies they at least have some thinking ability and maybe slight self-preservation instincts, being closer to animalistic than the mindless wandering flesh-eaters of the originals. Moreover, their berserker rage, unrelenting drive to infect, and complete disinterest in any other potential food sources like animals seem to imply an almost programmed directive to seek and destroy humans exclusively. Hmm...

Averted - but would have been deserved - during the climax of the film when Steve leaves a critical service door he was tasked with guarding locked and Kenneth, Michael, CJ, Terry, Nicole, and Chips locked outside with a bunch of zombies. When Ana finally opens the door for them, Michael initially puts a gun to her face before realizing it's her - it's entirely likely that Michael was planning on shooting Steve right then and there for his Lethally Stupid dereliction of duty.

Attractive Zombie: One of the DVD extras is an in-universe news broadcast containing, among other things, a video of some high schoolers taunting a young female zombie wearing nothing but a football helmet and Black Bra and Panties. One of the guys can be heard saying "look at those melons" and that "she is the hottest girl in the school." They learn very quickly not to mess around with any kind of zombie. A Deleted Scene in the film proper has a fully nude blonde woman walking past Anna's car in the highway, but it's unclear if she's a zombie, a Zombie Infectee, or just in shock.

comment
Death by Irony: C.J. says about midway through the film, "I'll kill each and every one of you to stay alive." Guess who ends up committing a Heroic Sacrifice? In the beginning of the film, one of Ana's neighbors is shown standing in the middle of the street with a gun pointed at her after narrowly escaping her infected husband. Said neighbor gets run over by an ambulance before he can shoot her. Also, Michael was pretty dead set on killing the infected Frank before he turned. It's simultaneously ironic, impressive and heartbreaking when he reveals his own infection, says goodbye to Ana, and sets the others off in the boat before shooting himself in the head. Also, Andre's death eerily mirrors the conversation where he tells Kenneth that his purpose was to bring his child into the world. Err... mission accomplished?

Foreshadowing: Quite a few: Tucker was noted as having a gimped foot, which nips him in the bud when he falls through a manhole and breaks his leg. Steve taunted Ana by giving her the go-ahead to shoot him if he ever turned. She gladly obliges when he does. The destruction of Fort Pastor is hinted at early on, when news footage from the base clearly shows several infectees (victims sporting bite wounds and other mutilations) being brought in via truck.

Suspiciously Apropos Music: There are multiple instances involving the Mall's muzak. The first is "Don't Worry, Be Happy", which plays when the survivors enter the mall just barely escaping the undead. The second is "All By Myself", which plays as the survivors split up to check if the mall is secure. The third is "You Light Up My Life", which is played when the mall's timers power up in the morning. The fourth is "What The World Needs Now Is Love", playing when all the survivors are at the dinner table discussing their romances.

Removing the Head or Destroying the Brain: Seems to be the only way of killing these zombies, although destroying the brain seems to be the only way as the group find a snarling severed head in a box on their escape cruise.

Take That!: In the "We Interrupt this Broadcast" segment, a reporter stranded in Los Angeles mentions that the LAPD had pulled out of South Central and had set up defences at Beverly Hills, a reference to the Rodney King riots of 1992 when they did the exact same thing.

Too Dumb to Live
 Dawn of the Dead (2004) / int_b58b4e3c
comment
Too Dumb to Live: Nicole is so worried about her dog that she somehow hijacks a truck and crashes it into the building he's in, only to be trapped by zombies. Made even more stupid as it's even pointed out to her that the zombies are only interested in eating human flesh and we even see them completely ignore the dog! In this case it's an aversion, as Nicole lives to the end of the movie, albeit Tucker bites it during rescuing her. Whose idea was it to let infected people into Fort Pastor? Even when it was annoyingly clear by that stage that bites turn people into zombies? In the Emergency Broadcast shown on the DVD, we see some teens risk infection by tying up a zombie girl to have sex with, as well as one moron get his throat ripped out when a cage match against a zombie goes as horribly wrong as you'd expect. Whose bright idea was it to use chainsaws in a moving vehicle, a high speed moving one at that? AnswerMichael! Though to be fair he's not the one using it. Yeah, it was to knock off any zombie stragglers. But there were dozens of other effective methods that would've knocked them off quickly and been less dangerous. Andy lampshades this after he gets bitten. He says he should have been on his guard for zombies getting in. This is understandable however, given that he was starving.

Demoted to Extra: Most of Monica's scenes and lines were cut or trimmed. They don't even mention her name in the final cut! Both director Zack Snyder and producer Eric Newman have lamented this, as they have nothing but praise for the way the actress portrayed the character.

comment
Improbable Aiming Skills: Even the untrained civilians are able to headshot running targets with amazing accuracy, often while running themselves, wounded, in the dark. Gets really ridiculous in a few scenes where characters are obviously and blatantly aiming elsewhere, yet still score clean headshots. Justified with Andy; he's a gun-shop owner, using a high-powered sniper rifle, shooting from a secure and elevated location.

Irony: A meta example with regards to the ending. The original was supposed to end with the characters committing suicide out of hopelessness, but got changed to a more positive one during production. The remake was going to end with a positive ending, but got changed to a more negative one due to test screening reactions.

Boom, Headshot!
 Dawn of the Dead (2004) / int_c3585f4a
comment
Boom, Headshot!: A surefire way to kill zombies is to shoot them in the head. If you pay attention, numerous characters display Improbable Aiming Skills - no matter where and how they aim, they will land a headshot. Played for some very dark laughs when the mall survivors and Andy play a sort of game, where they spot specific zombies in the crowd at the parking lot and Andy's task is to find them and show off his sniper skill, by picking them off with clean headshots. Averted - but would have been deserved - during the climax of the film when Steve leaves a critical service door he was tasked with guarding locked and Kenneth, Michael, CJ, Terry, Nicole, and Chips locked outside with a bunch of zombies. When Ana finally opens the door for them, Michael initially puts a gun to her face before realizing it's her - it's entirely likely that Michael was planning on shooting Steve right then and there for his Lethally Stupid dereliction of duty.

It Can Think: It's heavily implied, if not outright confirmed, in one scene as when the zombies are chasing the survivors up the staircase, they stop and try to find a way around Kenneth, who's holding them at gunpoint. They only resume the charge when they find no alternate route. When Andy dies and turns from his bite, he even rushes to the roof to try and communicate, despite only scrawling gibberish.Later C.J. throws a propane bomb into a crowd of zombies, one zombie picks it up and gives C.J. a Death Glare before attempting to throw it right back.

comment
Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane: The infectious agent that’s causing the dead to reanimate and eat the living is implied in some scenes and in Gunn’s script to be supernatural in origin. However, it’s for the most part ambiguous, as there are also implications of the disease indeed being a reanimating pathogen. In the deleted scenes for the movie, it's stated that it's infected blood, not bites, that turn people, like in its contemporary 28 Days Later. There's remnants of that plot point in the film, most notably with the focus on Kenneth's injury during his scuffle with the infected Ben Cozine, but it's only stated to transfer via bite in the final product.

Small, Secluded World: After the opening, and once the TV and radio broadcasts have ceased, the only living humans shown are the handful of survivors in the mall and Andy. They and the viewer have no way of knowing whether any other survivors are out there. The only hint of the existence of other living people is found on the DVD feature "The Lost Tape", specifically the text stating that the tape had been found an indeterminate time later by survivors passing through the city.

No Antagonist: There is no actual antagonist in this version of Dawn. The bikers from the original are Adapted Out, any conflict between the people in the mall is resolved in the first act, while the zombies are more of a force of nature (and safely outside the mall itself from the get-go) than anything that can be treated as antagonists. The closest to an antagonist is Steve, who's selfishness and cowardice imperils the other survivors several times, and Andre, who goes insane after Luda dies and reanimates.

Hate Sink: Steve. He is the only survivor to maintain dickishness from the very first second he's introduced until the moment he becomes a zombie and gets blown away. The mission to get Nicole back had him do just one thing: keep close to the damn door to the sewer and open it for the guys that were surely going to be racing ahead of the zombie horde. He leaves to go get some coffee and thus when the rest come back nothing can be done but allow the zombies to overrun the mall. He even says a sarcastic "What took you so long, fellas?" once he sees them after Ana opens after the rest were banging on the door and doing a Mexican Standoff with the friggin' zombies for a couple of minutes.

The Mall: The human protagonists take refuge here from the zombies, and come to enjoy it because of all the luxuries they can now have which they could never afford before. Kenneth even reasons that the zombies are trying to enter the mall because a subconsciousness in their minds is making them desire the material goods and lavish experiences of shopping, dining and water fountains inside the mall they used to enjoy back when they were alive, in a Call-Back to the original movie.

No Good Deed Goes Unpunished: In the bonus feature, "We Interrupt This Program" a man reveals to a reporter that he went to the aid of a woman who seemed to be moaning in pain on the road only to get bit in his face for his troubles.

Leader Wannabe
 Dawn of the Dead (2004) / int_ec99a30c
comment
Leader Wannabe: Initially, C.J. is trying to be the one calling the shots, but nobody sans Bart takes him seriously and he quickly ends up subdued and locked up by the rest of the group. Averted with Michael, who never aims for the position of leader, but is giving sound suggestions to people around and never makes them more than suggestions.

comment
The Dead Have Eyes: The infected’s eyes seem to be for the most part unchanged by the reanimation process with a few exceptions, at least until they degrade to a certain extent.

comment
Infernal Retaliation: Fire/explosives are used against zombies several times in the movie; in one case it works because the people burning them are safely behind a fence, attacked by surprise, etc.

Emergency Presidential Address
 Dawn of the Dead (2004) / int_f1bb4bd4
comment
Emergency Presidential Address: In the news report-style DVD Bonus Content, the ongoing media coverage temporarily switches to an announcement from the White House press office, wherein the press secretary confirms that an unknown virus is causing people to rise from the dead, the President has been moved to a secure facility, and then turns the podium over to the Secretary of Defense who declares that martial law is in effect for the United States.

comment
The Fundamentalist: The televangelist, who blames the zombie apocalypse on America's sinfulness (read: tolerating pre-maritial sex, abortion, homosexuality and homosexual marriage). He's played by Ken Foree, and gets to utter his famous line from the original.

Downer Beginning: The zombies literally come bursting into the heroine's bedroom within five minutes of the start of the film, her neighbor's daughter and her husband are the first victims and then become attackers.

The Remnant: Kenneth remains in uniform and acting like a cop long after any indication of his department's existence. C.J. keeps commanding his men (also in uniform) and trying to keep people out of the closed mall and from looting the shops well after it's evident that his employers will never come and punish him if he does not do it. The soldiers at Fort Pastor remain in control for a while, trying to maintain order in the region and protect civilian refugees, but they took in bitten people, and according to Norma and her group, they were wiped out a few days in.
