An unexplained plague has decimated the world’s population and yet…the dead aren’t dying. They’ve become zombies, stalking endlessly in a constant quest to feed on the flesh and blood of the few remaining living. A ragtag group of desperate survivors in a Wisconsin town seek refuge in a large indoor mall, where they must learn not only to protect themselves from the ever-increasing zombie horde, but also to co-exist with each other as a last bastion of humanity. Sealed off from the rest of what used to be the world, the group uses every available resource (both within and without) in their against-all-odds fight to remain alive and human.

" So
overall, I’m half-half on this sucker. On the one hand, I dug its surface candy
(gore, action & cast), but on the other hand, its structure and badly
handled substance grated me. Your call, guys! "...

October 9, 2003: Dawn of Dead set pics:
