    i ended up renting the the old romero films to get a better frame of reference. plus the old man's from pittsburgh and filmed them here and i'm here...

    original dawn makes clowns out of the zombies. slapstick on the escalator, youngstown hick target practice and so on.

    was the original a commentary on american consumer culture zombies in the mall or just a comedy bloodbath?

    the new dawn had a lot more impact. when the zombies smack the truck you really kinda feel the thump under the wheel.
