Two films today. First, the documentary "The Filth & The Fury" about the Sex Pistols. Very informative, and interesting to see how it all really came about. It was all in their own words and used archival home movies, interviews, etc spliced with new interviews of the band members. Great punk starter film.
Next is the "re-make" of George A. Romero's "Dawn of the Dead." With the exception of the title and the location, there isn't much in the way of similarities between the two films. I LOVE this movie! Since the original DOTD is my favorite zombie movie, that's saying a lot. The fact that it was so different, and the thrill factor was increased with the faster zombies made it an original undead movie. Just pretend there are two movies with the same title, but stand on their own. The cast was superb, the special effects and make up were fantastic and the music they chose was perfect, from the opening credits to the end. Thrilling, creepy zombie fun in every frame! Go check out "Dawn of the Dead."
