Dawn of the Dead And The Importance Of Physical Media
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 ส.ค. 2024
- Would it be a total buzz kill to find out one day when you decide to open your streaming service and see some of your digital copies gone in an instant? What if you didn't have the chance to pick up a physical copy as a backup when it was put on store shelves at your local retailer months or years prior? Chances are, it's happening much more frequently, and that's a sad, hard pill to swallow. Today, let's talk about a film that has disappeared in the ether when it comes to physical and digital release. Let's discuss George A. Romero's 1978 zombie epic, Dawn of the Dead.

When there's no more room in streaming services, the physical media will walk the earth.
Underrated quote!👱
More like reclaim the Earth.
lol.
This deserves more likes
This is gonna be a buzzkill comment…
But I work at a Goodwill warehouse.
Everyday I throw away entire garbage bins of records, cassettes, vhs, dvd, and Blu-ray media into our compactor which then gets transported right into the landfill.
Capitalism is destroying physical media cause it’s not “profitable.”
So if anyone sees this comment:
Please do not donate physical media.
Even if say a family member dies…find a home for their media. Have a good old fashioned garage sale if you must.
This is why I’m buying physical copies of everything.
You and me both!
Yup. Same. Also have original Star Wars trilogy and THX 1138 on laserdisc because they're the highest quality edition you can purchase that haven't been ruined by wretched 90s CGI. Also, people losing access to their digital purchases isn't new. Happened to everyone who bought music on Microsoft's music store. When the PlaysForSure authentication servers went down, everybody lost access to their music. There also reports on Reddit of people losing access to their purchased digital content as Amazon loses distribution rights.
Me too, don't people cares for bonus features as well???
@@Keymagination This as well. For the longest time, there wasn't a way to make a complete, functional, ISO of a blu-ray movie. People kept telling me, "Just rip the movie!" NO. I don't want JUST the movie! I want the extras! I want the cool menu! Heck, the Voyager DVDs have a TON of easter eggs in the menus with secret commentaries and interviews. It's great.
Why everything? Waste of money. I just buy physical copies of the films I love.
I’m proud to own the Second Sight 4K of Dawn of the Dead. All 3 cuts of the film in glorious 4K. That’s the one to own for anyone wanting it on physical media.
How much is it
there are now 4 official cuts, the fan made one prompted the the 4th official cut to be made
I prefer my good old grainy dvd edition. 4K gives an unrealistic view and than you see that the movie is very dated, especially the blood..
I hope 4k never gets region coded.
There are 4 other than a fan cut. Theatrical, Directors Cut, Extended, and European. As far as I know only available on ultimate edition DVD.
Kind of ironic that, of all movies, this one about rampant consumerism is the one tied up in anti-consumer practices.
Its just a FACT that physical discs factually look better than streaming. Physical discs aren't hindered by weird compression, bit-rates, bandwidth limitations, weird audio compression etc.
The recently released 4K disc set from overseas is still readily available from online retailers. While the blu ray is region locked, the 4K disc isn’t and will play on US players. I find it odd that the author of this video didn’t mention this fact.
Maybe he didn't know or found out late in the process of making this.
He discusses the Second Sight release, and shows the packaging, at 14:02.
He literally showed it. Thing is Second Sight's disc might be readily available BUT it's an overseas release and the region free is 4K only. Most people don't have/buy 4K. A lot of people are still in between dvd and Blu Ray. And, the major issue is that this should be widely available in its native soil.
@@thegillmanedits I agree that it should be readily available, but I take issue with the implication of the video that it isn’t available. Besides, a region free blu ray player isn’t difficult to come by either.
@@danbollinger9372 I think he's pretty clear about it being available in foreign releases. Also, i find that hardcore movie afficionados think that everyone is willing to import, pay higher prices, or buy requisite equipment. The majority of the viewing/buying public doesn't "go big". They want readily available stuff. Your proof is in sales. Even the consumers that DO buy physical media largely still buy DVDs.
Nothing beats the feeling of the late 70s and watching this in an old-fashioned single-screen theater. One of the best memories when it comes to movies. Thank you Dario and George. And thank you Goblin for that bad ass score (Europe that is).
I know 70s films were just so gritty. I fucking love them.
I hope that before I die, the AI and VR tech will be sufficiently advanced enough to be able to insert your brain into some kind of Matrix simulation, and just spend eternity (or at least my perception of it) on an endless loop from around ‘70 to ‘07. I would spend almost every weekend at the movies, because there was almost always something interesting being released.
I was 8 years old at the drive in it was the first movie to give me nightmares ever since I became a horror fan,soon as it became on DVD I bought it and still own it ,thank god
This is a total humblebrag but George Romero visited Fan Expo Toronto one year and I managed to get my ultimate edition of Dawn of the Dead signed by him. He was quiet but a nice dude and I got to tell him that Night of the Living Dead was one of my Grandma's favorite films (per her request when she found out I'd be seeing him) I still have that signed copy on my shelf and it remains a highlight of my DVD collection that I'm super proud of.
There are those of us who made warnings about the importance of physical media and were ignored for the "convenience" of digital media.
The first time I ever lost a game on PS4 because they lost the license, I knew that it would become the norm. We should expect the same from movies.
Exactly. Well stated.
I have a pc and buy games but download a pirate copy and store the file on a large independent drive same for moves I've bought digitally.
@@nicolajohnson1887This, except I rip the discs to files myself .
You are not some kind of mistreated prophet ("those of us who made warnings and were ignored"). You were ignored because nobody knows who you are and your opinion was not special
What a dick comment. @@noneofyourbusiness4616
And this is why if there's a physical copy of a movie you really enjoy, buy that sucker! Do NOT just rely on digital copies and streaming services.
Nothing beats a physical copy of something that you actually own
I own the ultimate collection, DVD release, which has at least three versions of the movies and tons of special features, because how the movie was made is just as important to preserve as the movie itself
Amen to that what this fine gentleman have said.
@@Keymagination Thank you :)
I own it as well.
Same here.
AH, yet another feature I miss: DVD's when they chocked them full of bonus material and behind the scenes stuff.
I purchased a physical copy of the original 1978 Dawn of the Dead Steel Jacket DVD box set. Six years ago. With theatrical, extended, director's cut, etc. DVD's. From a used copy British book and DVD seller. I didn't v realize what a rare find and collectors gem I stumbled onto! For five dollars. The seller probably wishes they could buy it back!
For those who care about physical media, it honestly feels like we're living in the golden age of the format. When DVDs preceded the streaming age, we had the big studios churning out bare budget, zero-effort releases of the disposable trash they knew would sell. With many of those studios now exiting the market, we have boutique studios creating releases I never thought I'd see in my lifetime. Anchor Bay paved the road, but Second Sight, Arrow, Severin, Indicator, Vinegar Syndrome and many others are not only keeping the medium alive - they're giving films the love and restoration we could never have dreamed of from the major studios.
Its not that it disappeared. Its that Rick Rubenstein for some reason expects someone to drive up with a dump truck full of money to license the film for release. From what I remember reading Scream Factory has inquired and it wasn't worth the amount of money that he wanted.
That justifies piracy in my eyes.
It's because Rubinstein wanted to take this and make a 3-D version from what I heard
"Best Buy" could rebrand as "Best Buy Bye Physical Media"
I still have a DVD copy of Night, Day, and Land of the Dead as well as a Blu-ray copy of Dawn of the Dead. Even got the 4 disc set from the 2000s.
Same!!
Dawn of the Dead is one of my favourite films of all time. I’ve owned it in every format, VHS, DVD, Arrow Video Blu Ray, and now Second Sights Limited Edition 4K. Buy physical media folks, it’s worth it!
The arrow release is my favourite
All of the legal wrangling over rights and such is why a kid like me in the late 80s, having discovered the Romero-verse of zombies, social decay, civil collapse, and feral human survivors during that era, had a helluva time getting our hands on "Dawn of the Dead" from our local video rental store. I couldn't find it anywhere close to me.
Wasn’t that great? I used to have it memorized which mom and pop video store had which Godzilla movies.
“We’re going to Broadway Video? I guess it’s Gigan for the weekend.”
“Circus Video? Mechagodzilla it is.”
“Family Video? Monster Zero or ‘85.”
Man, that sucks. My local shop always seemed to have everything I ever looked for. I have very fond memories of going up the tiny staircase at the back of the store and knowing that I was going to find thousands of horror, action, and comedies at the top. The ground floor was for new releases, game rentals, and family films, but the top floor held all the real treasures.
This is one of those films where I’ve pretty much owned every edition of it. I have the Elite CAV LaserDisc box set along with the Republic Pictures CLV Open Matte release. In addition to those, I have the Anchor Bay 4 disc DVD set and Blu-ray (which I was able to grab at FYE for six bucks shortly after it went out of print) along with the Second Sight 4K limited edition set and standard Blu-ray set. George A. Romero‘s Martin is another casualty that shares the same fate with Dawn of the Dead. The rights issues are pretty much identical, and you can only get an overseas Blu-ray or 4K of it. Regardless, I still have the original Anchor Bay and Lionsgate releases of Martin, in addition to the Second Sight limited edition 4K.
I’ve been getting Godzilla LaserDiscs 💿
And everyone thought I was crazy when I started mass collecting horror vhs tapes and dvds back in middle school
Making me feel an urgent need to get physical copies of Dawn and Day (my favorite of all of Romero's zombie movies). I've already got Night, Land and Survival.
My copy of Dawn of the Dead (DVD) is perfectly safe... it is signed by Romero himself 💪
I've got the DVD boxset with the comic and a bunch of different versions. Picked it up for 20 bucks years ago. For movies I really like, I get a physical copy. They can be removed from streaming services anytime.
I'm so thankful I own both versions of the film from Romero & Argento. Dawn of the Dead is the movie that made me a Zombie fan!
I’m glad I bought the bluray from anchor bay of Dawn of the Dead in the late 2000’s. if I had known what I know now, I would have bought all of them at the store.
This was my first Zombie movie. I was only about 6 or 7 and had to watch this by my older cousin's house. I had no idea what it was until years later. I immediately got a physical copy and still have it.
This is the first movie I've ever had to import and I'm blown away that it's Dawn of the Dead. Arguably the best zombie movie ever made. It's like how in the world does that happen?
Second Sight did a complete remaster of Dawn and released it on 4K Blu-ray (and regular Blu-ray) in the UK and it’s absolutely STUNNING! Second Sight are top of the game with the care they put into remastering their releases. The 4K discs are not regionally coded (just the blurays). I highly recommend a region free bluray player, you get the best of everything.
@MrAdammassacre their Dog Soldiers release was a HUGE improvement over the Scream Factory release. I love how much pride they take in restoring and putting out quality.
I own a Region Free Blu-ray player and it opens up a whole new world of collecting movies.
@@OneDarkMartian Most of the time. Picnic at Hanging Rock is awful.
i have the second sight version. I got it maybe this time last year
I will never forget: Winter 1979. Went to the movies to see the Ralph Bakshi animated "Lord of the Rings". Trailers before the movie starts ...... "In 1968 Gorge A. Romero made ........... yada yada yada ............Night of the Living Dead has ended. Dawn of the Dead is HERE!" . WOW. We had NO CLUE anyone was even making a sequel ! It just appeared ! I could not concentrate on "Lord of the Rings" as I was imagining how "Dawn of the Dead" would be..... Then it was late Spring 1979 and Dawn was released. Saw it at a drive in theatre. I could not believe what I was seeing . It changed my life.
I saw it when I was 12. I can't explain it but it changed my life too
Dawn of the Dead, Martin, Fright Night 2, Blood Beach, Near Dark, The Fury.... so many classics that desperately need releases...
Dawn of the dead is actually very common in the UK, almost every major retailer has a steady stock of them. The oppenheimer steelbook is still a no go though :((((((
Perhaps the greatest horror sequel ever. Prove me wrong.
Yes, I won’t argue
I think it stands alone it so good. Some idiots think DAY is better .
@@LannieLord well day is good and in their opinion is better maybe cuz it’s dark
@LannieLord Day is in my top 5 horror movie list... But to each their own
Here is where "Day" suffers: 1) Bub. Now- I suppose it's "interesting" to train a zombie. But, it's not scary. 2)the scientist training Bub was right out of a Scooby Doo movie. Total joke. Not scary. 3) The constant (and I mean CONSTANT) BICKERING between the military guys and the others . Again. Not scary. That said : Here's what was good: The underground tunnel caves (very scary!), the gore effects were at that perfection level. Lori Cardialle was great (basically - she was Fran and Peter and FlyBoy -all rolled into one person) . The other stars of the movie were- just OK. The ending was great - the island - perfect. And the hands out of the wall nightmare - great. @@CocainBuzz
That Anchor Bay boxed set you showed off? I bought it from a gas station back in 2010 for 7 bucks. I still have it too. I had no idea back then the pandemonium that would ensue regarding its availability over a decade later. In hindsight, it may be one of my best DVD purchases as a movie lover.
Lucky bastard 😂
I found a Blu Ray copy at Bed Bath & Beyond, of all places, some years back. it was $9,
Best Buy was the go to place for physical media, especially rare horror films. I miss those days.
A Dawn of the Dead t-shirt just came out today, and I was explaining to someone the rights issue and why the film is hard to find. And now hours later this video is recommended to me. Glad people are still talking about one of my favorite films of all-time! 🧟🧠🔫
Realized this a couple years ago. Been buying physical copy’s now. My brother found me a DVD of Dawn of the Dead last Christmas. Grateful I have it. The remake didn’t do justice to the original.
I don’t and will never support any streaming services. Physical media collector here for life.
The reason I got back on the physical media train a few years ago is I could not find Dawn streaming. This made me get a region free player and start collecting again. I had a decent DVD collection but now I have some great versions of fantastic classics like this.
I have a copy of Dawn of the Dead on Blu ray but I believe it's an import or a ripped copy, I bought it on Ebay a few years ago. It's really good quality
I've been collecting physical copies of all my video games and movies/TV shows since childhood.
I understood the importance since the beginning we need to preserve our physical media
I'd really like to see a similar deep dive done for the almost extinct movie Just Before Dawn (1981 I think)
Here in Germany, we have dozens of different releases of this movie. Steelbooks, Mediabooks, DVD, Blurays...
Different cuts including one with all scenes from all the different cuts in one final cut.
My copy of Second Sight's BR of Dawn of the Dead literally arrived in the mail TODAY. I'm not kidding. It came in the male earlier today.
I got the boxed set of Dawn as a birthday gift from a friend. I have thanked him many times for the gift since the initial gifting due to it suddenly disappearing from shelves.
I'm glad I got my Anchor Bay collectors DVD when it came out. 🤗
I have it too. Sadly, it features the garbage extra footage shoot for Night of the Living Dead.
Got that big box set of Dawn years ago
I’m so glad that I didn’t get rid of my DVDs even when people said it was silly to still have them. Dawn of the Dead is one of my favorite movies of all time, and I’m so glad I still have my DVD copy that I bought in 2005.
Never listen to the "people", follow your own path, these people don't understand the worth of owning physical copies. I'm happy to say that I still own the double VHS of Dawn of the Dead along with numerous individual dvds.
I was 9 when cable finally made it to our small midwestern town & for the first 90 days all new customers were provided with every movie channel as a free sample (at that time, 3 majors only: HBO/SHO/the Movie Channel). Knowing our parents were not the easy up-sell types, my brother & I needed to dive in & watch as many movies as possible before that trial period was over. Dawn Of The Dead (1978 version) was one of our favorite. We watched it multiple times & have always shared fond memories involving that new era in entertainment delivery as a standout moment in our childhood.
Thank u for inspiring my trip down memory lane.
I love ur channel, thank u for the content & consistency. Never a bad video, a bar I wouldnt set for any product or service, so u have certainly exceeded my expectations.
Happy Holidays 🥳✌🏻🧟♂️
I managed to acquire the Achor Bay release of Dawn on Bluray. I had heard that the person who currently holds the rights to the film was asking for ridiculous sums of money to have it re-scanned or re-issued or especially placed on a new format like 4K UHD. It was something like, $30 million? Usually, the most that rights holders charge is like $100,000. So that gives you some perspective on how the rights holder is more or less holding the title hostage until someone wants to make him a millionaire over night. The reason no boutique or studio is going to pay that price tag is because even with great sales, you wouldn't profit $30 million. You would lose money almost certainly. There is but only one way other than this person giving up or selling off the rights. That is if someone wanted to crowdfund to pay for the rights with the expressed desire to see the film on a modern-day format with zero hope for profit.
The same thing is happening with the pilot of Doctor Who. Someone feels they’re entitled to more money than they were offered and are keeping it hostage. Gatekeeping is pretty much the term for it sadly. True fans wouldn’t hold rights to a classic hostage but of course, the people holding Who and Dawn hostage aren’t true fans, they’re just greedy jerks. The fans pay for their greed and, due to this, we can’t have a true ultimate edition of an amazing movie.
I think your claim of what's being demanded for the rights to the 1978 Dawn was pulled out of thin air.
@@MJanovicable multiple reports said the same thing about what the jerk wants
@@Trekapedia And they are?
@@MJanovicable Google it you'll see
I am lovingly and defensively clutching onto my 'Anchor Bay Ultimate Edition' as I watch this. I bought this almost 20 years ago. Have it on Blu-ray as well. Thank goodness.
I've always bought physical, never subscribed to any streaming channels or bought things digitally. But even so, there's always gonna be a film or TV show you become aware of years later and the physical edition is selling for crazy prices on ebay.
Once upon a time I had that same physical edition you showed at around 3:30. One divorce later, the movie never seen on my shelf again. 😅
Hopefully another physical edition comes out again in the future.
The 2004 Dawn of The Dead is one of the best remakes in my opinion. And I have the DVD boxset of the 78 Dawn of The Dead and the Second Slight 4K edition.
I bought the ultimate edition dvd at a Fry’s electronic back in high school. Glad I kept it. Also got the 4k of Dawn of the Dead
I own the DVD of the Argento Zombie cut, the bluray of the theatrical version of Dawn as well as the Limited Edition DVD version, and about 2 years ago got the Second Sight big box set of it on 4k. Definitely my FAVORITE horror film of all time, it ties with Lord of the Rings as my all-time #1 favorite film. I used to rent it on VHS numerous times as a kid as well. RIP Romero. Sad i never got to meet you. 😦
I just started with collecting phys media to get that sense of ownership and control over video content that it brings.
I still convert the discs to video files for the convenience of streaming movies and shows to my devices. I feel like that
solution is a good hybrid of physical media and streaming.
I still have my dawn of the dead deluxe dvd set from the early 2000s fun times to collect dvds never knew what special sets would come out
I saw dawn of the dead for the first time a couple of years ago when it was re released in 3d in theaters and it was ten times better than the remake.
THANK GOD I BOUGHT THE ANCHOR BAY for $40.00 20 years ago !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You can still get it in physical format here in the UK from HMV.
What I can’t find in HMV is Day of the Dead and Land of the Dead. I have those movies but I just never see them, only Dawn and Night.
I have my collectors edition Dawn of the Dead. It has like 3 versions and I think making of video. It is well loved.
The Dario Argento Verison and the Extended Cut are my favorite versions of DOTD, also love the Fulci remake
Greatest Zombie Movie ever made, bar none. My second favorite movie ever behind Halloween 78. I fortunately have multiple hard copies of this movie, and im glad i did!
I will always keep by Thicc Anchor Bay Limited Edition DVD. Nothing will make me part with it. Even when I inevitably become a zombie, I'll still be clutching it.
Dude I just picked up a special copy of land of the dead today and a bunch more horror movies.
Wow, it’s usually us in the UK complaining about all the amazing Scream Factory and other companies releasing films. DotD is very easy to come by here on DVD, BluRay and 4K.
I love physical media!!
i bought that 4 disc anchor bay edition the day it came out. when i was a kid i had the vhs. i love physical media.
_"I'll watch Zack Snyder's remake instead"_
Umm, no. I was ok with the zombies running, because Return of the Living Dead is one of my all time favorite zombie movies. But when they started crawling on the ceilings and leaping like The Fly, that lost me. Before you say "but the zombies can talk in RotLD" there is also an element of camp/comedy in that film, where Dawn is supposed to be taking itself seriously.
I have the 4 disc limited edition of Dawn of the Dead.
Ironically I got mine the Anchor Bay Release DVD set right before Tower Records went under.
It's a close-run thing with Night of the Living Dead, but Dawn of the Dead is arguably the best ever zombie film, and is probably the film that's been the most influential on the genre. It's completely insane and unforgivable that it's become unavailable. I'm lucky enough to have multiple copies on DVD. It didn't used to be hard to get at all- at one point in the 2000's they even gave it away free with a UK Saturday newspaper as a Halloween promo. If it can happen to Dawn of the Dead, it can happen to almost any movie- one of the many, many reasons consumers need to keep physical media alive.
Also, the Snyder remake has a good first 10 minutes, but then becomes an absolute garbage fire travesty. If that became lost media, I probably wouldn't care.
3:25 Fortunately, I did buy that limited edition, multi-disc DVD copy of Dawn of the Dead, when I first saw it. It now sells for about three or four times as much as I paid for it. I'm still trying to find the "Complete Cut" on disc. Apparently there was an extremely limited release, a few years ago, but I only found out about it a year later, after all copies had been sold.
About a month or 2 ago i just kinda started collecting physical movies again (upgrading my collection to 4k). With the story about sony pulling payed digital content it just makes me alot more glad i did.
I own the Anchor Bay box set version(s). I no longer have the theatrical version that came with it. My nephew whined and cried because he couldn't find a copy so I gave it to him. But I have another theatrical version from Anchor Bay. Regardless, I have them. That's all that matters. And I'm from Pittsburgh, where this movie was filmed.
Video Nasty in England but I got to see it as my brother is great and knew how to get a copy when I was 8 in 83 . Gotta love older brothers 😊🐾💜
Physical is always better than digital
Dawn Of The Dead is my favorite movie.
The gun shop wasn't part of the mall, but was down the street... love how they included it....
It's still easier to find a way to watch this than The Keep or the various other movies that never even got a DVD release.
I didnt think buying Dawn of the Dead blu ray at a Best Buy in 2009 for $15 would end up to be such a good buy...it looks awesome on a 4K player/TV set up too!
I will never give up or stop collecting DVDs and Blu-rays.
Romero said the 3 hour Rough Cut no longer exists. It ran longer than the 138 minute Cannes Film Cut. Scenes from the 3 hour rough cut appear in DOCUMENT OF THE DEAD.
I have 3 different dvd releases and 2 vhs copies. Im so glad i didn't throw away the vhs copies. Thank you!
I've been buying Physical Media going back a long time. I will always buy Physical Media. I own The Special Edition DVD of Dawn of The Dead.
As a guy who collects physical media that sucks you can't find movies like Dawn of the Dead anywhere.
I picked up the DVD Anchor Bay ultimate edition for $5 at Walmart years ago! I’m all good!
Its weird cause Dawn of the Dead is free on TH-cam. Dawn is probably my favorite one just because the whole how realistic the Mall feel and everything was. Ppl look at me crazy cause I buy Disney movies for 1.50 or 2$ at the Goodwill because I still watch VHS tapes and sometimes you can find a rare copy of something someone dropped off put on the shelf.
I have a DVD copy of Dawn and I saw it selling for like 80$ years ago when it went out of print...I was like wtf but it made me realize how dastardly some greedy corporation could manipulate or destroy the flow of what we watch. I still have that DVD :).
The 2004 Dawn of the Dead stands for pretty much everything the original version is making a stand against thematically. One of the worst remakes ever.
Proud to say I bought my copy of the Anchor Bay DVD Boxed Set back in 2004, and I still have it to this day.
I keep shouting from the rooftops on this! It's the same reason that I ran to Back Market for an updated ipod as soon as I heard that Apple stopped making them. Anybody listening/watching more than base, populist entertainment knows that you need your own copy of the songs, movies and shows you want to own. You CANNOT count on these corporations to keep it available for you. If you can't count on your job to put your needs first, what makes you think a media corporation will?
I don't get why people can't see the obvious correlation without being told.
The normies don't care.
I don't understand why collectors held off from getting region free players but immediately jumped on 4K bandwagon.
Dawn of the Dead has always been ready available in other regions.
That Second Sight UK release is one the nicest versions of this ever. Definitive copy.
I bought Dawn of the Dead on some seasonal Halloween end cap at Walmart several years back for I want to say $5. Looking it up recently, it’s appreciated in value considerably.
The black guy lives at the end and that's all that matters to me. 😊😊
I stopped buying games on my iPhone because they were often removed. I bought Streets of Rage 1, 2 and 3, along with Final Fight, and they are all gone
You had me at the leftovers metaphor 🙌
I used to own every copy of this film on dvd then sold them all, really wishing I hadn’t done that. Dawn was the first dvd I ever bought with my own allowance money. Has to be a rights issue keeping this film away from the public.
I used to think the Gaylen Ross dummy head was repurposed for the blonde zombie who got half her face blown off while she was attacking Roger in the truck.
