George A Romero's iconic zombie masterpiece "Dawn of the Dead" combines gruesomely eye-wincing effects, a chillingly climactic plot, and constant heart-pounding thrills to serve up a razor-sharp social satirization of American excess.
Unforgiving, utterly relentless, and chilling to the core, Romero's spiritual successor to "Night of the Living Dead" is as suspensefully dark, savagely gory, and politically impactful as it was when it was first released in 1978.
With its stinging satire and pulse-racing suspense, "Dawn of The Dead" delivers a more cultured, tension-filled affair to the traditional zombie horror trope, splicing cut-throat thrills with a starkly inciteful synopsis of the scisms that still separate society today, in an unapologetically dark dissection of the human condition.
Driven by powerful performances, and brought to life by outstanding special effects, Dawn of the Dead provides the essential starting point for genre fans. As thought-provoking as it is entertaining, Dawn of the Dead is a rare breed of horror film that every horror fan should indulge in at least once before they kick the bucket.
