the biggest lesson of this movie:
never have a running chainsaw in the vehicle while it is moving...
Don't loose situational awareness
I learned that one the hard way!
@@cgmason7568....Watch your asp.
You'd think with the engineering they did to rig those trucks up, they could've went to the sporting goods store and got ball bearings, and then making a locked in rolling track so the chainsaw doesn't bounce around when it's locked in.
@@1998flint I actually thought of that weeks ago before my sleep after watching the movie many years ago lol
A favorite movie of mine, still blows my mind this movie is almost 20! 🥲
They would have had a better shot at survival staying in the mall lol
watch return of living dead 1985 for me the best zombie movie made and the danger and scary zombies in all movies, the trioxin zombies.
The main security guard going from an a-hole to a favorite character was awesome and unexpected.
CJ was about that life! And he went out like a champ
@@williamcooper448 Even he realized the irony of him sacrificing himself so the others can escape when he earlier claimed he would kill everyone else to save his own life. "Fucking figures."
@@Jexorz86 - Wasn't talking about him.
CJ was always my favorite character. His redemption is amazing.
I loved that aspect of the film.
"Human nature doesn't lend you to be an asshole."
Clearly you have never worked retail.
Immediately after we hit end recording she says, "what am I talking about. I deal with a-holes everyday at work." Haha
looooool truuuue
"I don't like fast ones" LMAO

When this movie came out, I was living in Oklahoma City. The theater I watched this in was located in the Crossroads Mall.
During the movie, when the group gets to the mall there's a moment when the camera holds on the mall's name "Crossroads Mall".
Everyone in the theater gave a surprised laugh at that, and then it became a little uncomfortable for a moment.
Still one of my most memorable theater experiences.
Imagine someone came into the room behaving like a zombie...as a PR Gag if you will...
@@Tommieboy2009 I'm betting a few people would have shat themselves right out of their seat.
Seriously I always tell people how this movie was when it was in theaters. Had to be there to experience it
Me too! I saw it at that same theater! I don’t go to theaters anymore, but crossroads is a no go area now. I dunno if that same theater is still there or not. There was also a dollar theater across the street. It’s a shame, used to be a nice area.
I just remember the guy behind me kept talking about another crossroads mall that he knew about, I’m like “ok, dude, I’m trying to watch the movie…”.
What a small world we live in…
Would have been amazing if their was some interaction with the audience like a zombie coming in or something like that
I love CJ's evolution throughout the movie. He even ended up being my favorite character along with Kenneth. From selfish to selfless 👌. Oh and a mall is actually a really good place to be in during a situation like this I think.
Yeah and then in the end when he about to die he goes “Well that fucking figures” He was definitely one of the best characters
On The Food Theorists channel MatPat made a video about how long you could survive locked in a mall, and the answer is: forever.
@@MorliHolect even with no food?
A mall is a really bad place to hole up, actually. Firstly, it's probably right in the middle of a major population centre, which guarantees that there were will be large numbers of zombies around. Possibly including inside the mall itself, meaning you'll have to risk life and limb, and expend a lot of resources, to clear out the building and secure it as a shelter.
Second, malls have tons and tons of entrances and exits. Because they need to have fire exits for everyone in the building, and they need to have ways for stock to be delivered by truck, then distributed to every shop in the building without wheeling it through the public thoroughfares where customers are meant to walk. Which means malls also tend to be warrens of backroom corridors. You would have to barricade dozens of potential entry-points, and if a single zombie got inside, it could be bumbling around in the backrooms for days before you encountered it.
Third, most of the goods that malls sell are inedible, and food and water are your #1 priorities in a disaster scenario like this. What's more, most of the food that malls sell is not long-lasting, and will go bad extremely quickly. Especially once the power fails and all the fridges and freezers shut down. It doesn't matter how many potential zombie-killing weapons you have, if you're so starved and dehydrated that you can't even move.
@@tbotalpha8133 A mall is also the one place many other people would seek out, so you'll have competition, and may have to fight to gain entrance to the mall. Not to mention any looting that has taken place when society began to break down. ANother thing about a mall having many entrances, they also tend to have extremely large windows located throughout, so as to help bring in as much natural light as possible. The windows would be easily seen though, and if smashed, would be adding to the various locations to enter the mall.
"Not the fast zombies"
Oh you're gonna love 28 Days Later
Hated that one too.
@first last Do you mean the opening scene from 28 Weeks Later? the running scene
technically the 28 Days Later ones arent zombies.
@@sugarbomb1346 Technically they're not but...come on...they are "new school" zombies
They're more like rage monsters but there are enough similarities that people just call them zombies. Cheers.
Saw this one in theaters as a college dude back then. The scariest part?? Theater only had 3 people watching. I feel alone in an almost empty theater
I think there might have been 10 in the theater I was in and two of us came together.
@fabian hernandez 😂😂😂😂
@fabian hernandez that’s actually really adorable 😂
I was like 10. I begged my parents so they took me. The theater was so packed my mom was wondering what kind of movie we was watching. Once the movie started my mom gave me that look like wtf 🤣 the feeling after leaving the theater late at night gave me the creeps cause the street was empty.
I was lucky enough to see it on opening night, with a packed theatre. We were in the first row and it was awesome. Great crowd reactions! One of my favorite movie going experiences. Although the original is still numero uno on my list, followed be the Thing, The Shining and Halloween. Love these reaction vids btw, they're a lot of fun :) cheers.
I wouldn't recommend this with many things, but you should react to some of the special features: Namely, the video diary of the guy across the street, and the news coverage of the first two days of the outbreak
Good point, some of the best special features in the earlier days of dvds. The news broadcast gives me chills Every time!
Fun fact: the super strength sometimes seen in zombie movies is actually realistic to some degree. The human body is actually capable on much more strength then we can use on a day to day basis. The reason for this is that we have limiters to stop us from destroying our bodies irreparably.
The only problem with them using the "no more limits" thing is that the reason those limiters are in place is because the muscles would tear loose from the bones. So the "super zombies" should be groaning lumps after a "hunt" with unusable limbs.
As I mentioned in the last sentence@@phantom6
the WALKING DEAD
mentioned that in the early seasons
that the fresh turned still have
MUSCLE CONTROL
and the ability to
RUN & CLIMB & JUMP
based on
visual input & memory
but later on they're usually
clumsy & shambling
This is how remakes should be done
Fun fact: Events from the original Romero films take place during the opening car ride. The truck crashing into the gas station diner is Ben's story from Night of The Living Dead 1968 about how he was at Beakman's Diner escaping in a pickup truck when another truck crashed into the gas pump and blew the place up. The helicopter flying over that explosion is the guys from Dawn of The Dead 1978 in the WGON news helicopter. This leads to theories that this remake is canon to the Romero movies.
Except they all take place decades apart and the zombie mythology is way different. Those scenes in this Dawn of the Dead are pretty much just easter eggs/ homage.
By your logic, the helicopter has been flying nonstop for like 30 years and everybody just forgot there already was one zombie apocalypse lol
@@AZOMBIERYO or just setups for potential remakes of the other films being set in modern times.
Fun fact this is the remake that gave the zombie genre its rebirth as it had been gone for 20 years or more.
The years 2004-2011 best time for Zombie movies/Games
@@rubenlopez3364 no. 1978-1990 had the best zombie movies. Dawn of the dead, day of the dead, return of the living dead, return of the living dead 2, night of the living dead (remake) city of the living dead, zombie creeping flesh lucio fulci’s zombi 2. That’s the best period by far
You are correct sir and you saved my the trouble of typing it all out. Thanks.
Fulci rules!!
It was actually 2002 with the first Resident Evil movie and then 28 Days Later in 2003 that really started the zombie craze back up.
@@walkerdevin08 It was Dawn of the Dead, Land of the Dead the remakes and additions to the classic genre that came after that which inspired the Walking Dead creator Kirkman. All due respect and agree to disagree but 28 Days later and 28 Weeks Later derives from the Crazies. Inexplicable insanity hitting waves of people not becoming rotted corpses that attack the living. And Resident Evil while commercially successful was not the ignition point.I interviewed some Hollywood producers in the genre and they will almost always invariably cite Dawn of the Dead as the movie that lit the match and the fuse . And now the zombie genre is saturated nearly two decades later and might need to go away again for awhile.
This was Zack Snyder's first film! It got positive reviews, but George Romero had given this film a mixed review, saying that he enjoyed the first 20 minutes, but said it missed the mark, until the climax.
Yeah George was a great talent so is Snyder. I think both versions have their own identity whereas Romero was focused on satire and horror whereas Snyder was able to blend action with horror and I always thought there were some 9/11 allegories to the remake.
@@coyotefever105 don’t forget the extreme amount of social commentary in Romero’s
And now the remake is also considered a classic
Yeah, I gotta agree with Romero's assessment here. The best part of this movie is the opening, and then the rest of it is pretty bog-standard survival-horror stuff. I'm not really a big fan of Zack Snyder's style in general though. He's all style and no substance at best, and at worst, his films are pessimistic objectivist dreck. Romero's original DOTD is very stylish, but also has a lot of depth. It's social commentary still hits hard today. That opening scene where the SWAT team raids that black apartment complex still leaves my jaw on the floor every time I watch it. Admittedly, this one is still pretty fun though. It's about as close as Zack ever came to making a truly great movie
I take Romero's criticism with a grain of salt. He only made two good movies really, and the remake of Night of the living Dead was pretty awful by any standard. Still at least he gave us the original Dawn of the Dead, the best Zombie movie ever! Honestly, this is a pretty good remake, it stays true to the original, but also does not remake it scene for scene. It brings new scares, and takes advantage of new tech to convey the story. I give it an A
I'd love to see your reactions to "True Romance" and especially "Léon: the professional." Both amazing movies with awesome performances by Gary Oldman.
Fun Fact: The Hallowed Grounds coffee bar in the movie was originally meant to be a Starbucks kiosk, but they didn’t want to be associated with a violent horror flick. They apparently realized what they passed up when the movie came out and they noticed that like 70% of the film takes place sitting at that bar.
70% or your percentage is off by about forfty percent
70% would mean that over an hour of the movie is at that one spot.
Zombie rule number 2:
Crowbars are better than mallets. (Strong steel vs flimsy wood.)
SERIOUSLY! He was in a sporting goods store! Baseball bats, kayak paddles, etc, and he chooses a fershlugginar CROQUET MALLET?
That's on the dvd commentary. Lol
GORDON FREEMAN'S motto
" CROWBARS ,
NEVER LEAVE HOME
WITHOUT THEM "
"Oh no, not fast zombies!" - everyone who gets to watch this movie for the first time. 💯
I appreciate your content always, thanks!
28 days later started the running zombies trend in 2002. Then Spanish flick REC ramped it up
Because fast zombies turn what should be Horror into Action, and anybody who goes to see a Horror film wants to see Action otherwise they would gone to see an Action movie in the first place.
It's either an Action movie or a Horror movie. The two just don't mix. Just like VERY few Horror Comedies ever succeed.
Shaun of The Dead and Return of the Living Dead are two successful Horror Comedies because they knew how to blend the two genres seamlessly without one overshadowing the other.
Snyder should just stick to Action movies, because he failed at making a successful Horror film.
@@kiillabytez Aliens is the outlier to that
@@SaRENRampaiger I take it you have never seen the return of the living dead 1985?
I don't get the arguments
Slow zombies is automatically horror and fast zombies means it is action
In my view I think fast zombies a more terrifying because you have to manage your stamina all the time
The zombies have always a massive power because they will you use the full power their body is possible to physically give and they can use until the got "killed"
And your chance of dealing with 3 at the same time is very tough to handle and can be a quick near to death situation
In a city situation like in the movie you are immediately surrounded by them and without good weapons or a group of people your chances to survive this apocalypse is near to zero. This scenario is so terrible and scary when I think about it .
I used to think that the stupid human behavior in a lot of zombie movies was unrealistic. But after living through covid, I now realize that there's a part of the population that would be yelling FAKE! even as the zombies chomp on their asses.
This comment didn't age well. Or do you still back Fauci after it's been learned his agency funded gain of function research at that Wuhan lab and funded puppy torture?
yep
@@eq1373 we don’t need your conspiracy bs
@@chill-lady-brook You don't. It'll show itself in your body eventually. There's no need to say anything about a conspiracy. It's over, because the conspiracy became real.
Oh yeah, we're not that stupid buddy. We'll probably be the first ones to claim that there's a zombie virus, and people think we're all nut jobs until it actually comes. We warn you idiots. Not deny.
It's up to you to believe if that warning was real. We're rather like Michael Burry and the others who knew 08', or rather we're the ones who knew the insiders of the 08' "crisis".
Hard to deny too if a real zombie virus comes. Preppers who some are also "conspiracy theorists" tend to be more prepared for this scenario than the average person.
Total collapse of society due to a zombie apocalypse does not equal incompetent governments shutting us down for a virus with a 99% survival rate.
My theory on why the fast zombies are so strong (big lady moved at full speed) is that they are running on basic instincts and since they cant feel its the same as being pumped full of morphine. No muscle pain or cramps are gonna stop you from moving as fast as possible for your frame.
Check out the 80's classic Brain Dead, its ultra gory but is also a comedy and i think it was Director Peter Jackson's first film
I kick arse for the Lord!
Lawnmower scene !!!
Also called Dead Alive
I hate it when people say the movie is "weird", when that's the point.
I think bad taste was his first film
"The return Of the living dead"- 1984... ;)
On our list to watch someday ;)
Now you definitely need to watch "Shaun of the Dead (2004)" and "Hot Fuzz".
She's actually seen the whole Cornetto Trilogy
@@YouMeTheMovies Oh Frick. I really wanted to see her 1st time reactions to that trilogy.
@@YouMeTheMovies have you both seen spaced, with both pegg and frost? Best sitcom I ever saw.
@@TheRetroManRandySavage I've seen a couple episodes, she hasn't seen it. Might be a fun one to do someday.
2004 dawn of the dead is one of my favorite move of all times.
Dare I say better than the original?....
How cool that Tom Savini had a cameo as the police officer interviewed on the TV saying 'You shooot em in the head!'
Such a nod to his own living dead from 1990 and the ultimate homage to the original that started it all
Also have cameos from original Dawn of the Dead cast members. The TV preacher and general on the news.
@@generic_sauce i even love that so many actors continue to play parts in all the films. Land of the dead, Day of the dead, diary of the dead are epic examples of this.
And Ken Foree as the Tv evangelist.
I know it's marketed as a remake, but it's not. Nor is it a sequel because that implies it's continuing the story of the first cast/characters. It's more like a reboot of the franchise with a separate and new story that is different city than the original, so it doesn't step on it's story/toes. If the world ended tomorrow every Mall in the world would have a story to tell. Hope you guys do "Army of The Dead".
What I loved most about this was that it made the Zombie Apocalypse *scary.* Prior to this, the Zombie Apocalypse was like a lawless Libertarian playground where you could run around shooting people, stealing cars, and raiding stores. This apocalypse was a terrifying wasteland that you wouldn't live long in.
there is probably enough ammo in that gun store to kill every zombie in that crowd. They could have easily disposed of these fast zombies by just shooting them from the rooftops.
I disagree, I think 28 Days Later - while not technically Zombies - made Zombie's scary again. This was great as well though and one of my favorites.
@@Helldog6 Yeah it was the "not technically zombies" that made me disqualify it. A bit petty, perhaps, but I love both films equally. 28 DAYS is what brought the zombie genre back, now that I *will* agree totally.
I think you mean anarchist not libertarian.
@@andrewcarlson7252 Right. That's not what a Libertarian believes... More like a far left "defund the police" type of situation but instead of zombies they would be criminals.
I remember watching this while my older brother was on a date and I remember telling him he should've let me stay in the next theater room watching Shark Tale because I was TERRIFIED watching this.😂
Omg. I had the same experience
Hahaha
First time watching this was with my older brother and his then partner
🤣🤣🤣
I was 3rd wheeling
Finally I found a channel with real reactors not fake ones that pretend like they've never seen a movie before. We can tell the difference!
I like how your wife's eyes really show show how intense the opening scene is of this film.
They're going to love 28 weeks later if they react to it.
28 weeks sucked so bad though
The Evildead 2013 remake unrated please. 👌
She's seen the original Evil Deads but not that one. On our list :)
zombie movies almost never have zombies that can travel in the sea/ocean (swim and/or got gills) and via through the air (flying, having wings)
if you think fast running zombies are scary, how about fast flying-winged zombies or "mermaid zombies" (zombies with gills, but can also walk/run on the land too)
In "Land of the Dead" (Dawn's sequel), the zombies walked underwater to cross a river, Pirates of the Carribean style.
Nice, might need to tackle 28 Days Later! 😂
Thats on our list :)
@@YouMeTheMovies please react to these four vampire movies
Interview With The Vampire (1994)
The Lost Boys (1987)
From Dusk Till Dawn (1996)
Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992)
Here's two werewolf movies for you to react to
An American Werewolf In London (1981)
The Howling (1981)
I hated the baby zombie part eeeek lol.
The one security guard, looks like the guy from Air Bud
That's because it is. I totally forgot where I recognized him from, you just reminded me.
12:57 _"I mean, there's no way she moved that fast in real life..."_ Well, being a zombie _does_ come with some perks, just sayin'.
Step 1, lock up mall. Step 2, paint windows in mall. Step 3, profit!
You're not supposed to watch these horror films in a bright, well-lit room. Could you at least dim the lights? You're killing the atmosphere.
She was talking about there was no way the fat lady ever moved that fast when she was alive.
I forget where I saw it, (long time ago, correct me if I'm wrong) special features more than likely, it was a big dude dressed up as a big chick.
It wasn't fake except the costume if I remember right.
Big dude could move.
I love that they use the decomposition of the bodys to slow them down since the muscles are decaying
Great selections, great reactions! If the lady needs a break from zombies, maybe a viewing of From Dusk Til Dawn for some vampire fun? ❤️ the channel!
From Dusk til Dawn is on our list to watch eventually.
Same with underworld series too. It's twilight with matrix effect and guns
@@YouMeTheMovies Try Dog Soldiers if looking for werewolf action
Perfect time to react to this . Since army of the dead comes out on Netflix on the 21st may
Hmmm. You might be on to something here. 🤠
@Ricardo Alonso Rojas Its Snyder & Zombies. Close enough :)
@@YouMeTheMovies The county Sherriff - Tom Savini was in the 1978 Dawn of the Dead
as a Motorcycle Raider :):)
@@YouMeTheMovies Day of the Dead (2008) is a good movie too :):)
Zombie Virus, my solution - stay solo, keep moving(bury vans use as temp homes/storage), stay away from towns cities etc(dead/diseases) for the 1st few years and let the dead rot, then settle in a small cottage in the country away from scavengers/threats....
Just in case you didn't know the big lady that they bring in the wheel barrel is actually a dude in makeup and a fat suit
Ironically Dawn of the Dead kicked The Passion of the Christ out of the top box office position when it was released in 2004.
I always wondered if a cruise ship would be good, can move, anchor of shore, lots of space and rooms as well as hopefully stocked. Shipboard communications as well as places to quarantine the sick. Only real problem is you are basically stuck on it if an outbreak occurs. Failing that, the Winchester Pub sounds like a good option....
Look up what happens to Cruise ships that lose power or get stuck, it gets pretty bad very quick
I loved this remake. Great acting from all sides in this.
Have either of you seen the horror flicks Cube 1998, or Lifeforce 1985?
I’ve seen Cube. Might have to throw those on the list for her. I’ve probably seen Lifeforce too back in the day. Might have to look it up tho
@@YouMeTheMovies Lifeforce is the one with the space vampires brought back to Earth.
Assault rifle with a flip scope. On a island with resourcesthe misses and you guys so we can fortify the island
The only good remake (aside from Night) of all the Dead movies... Great pick guys!!!
Agreed.
You're of course referring to the 3d version with Sid Haige.
Jk cheers
I always looked at it as it depended on how long they were dead. A fresh body would be fast but as they decay they would become shamblers.
The best opening ten minutes, after that... well. This was a fun ride, but I'm a George Romero fan of old. Actually saw the original Dawn in the late 70's at the midnight show in a mall theatre. Now that was an experience.
Same here. Unrated. Gory as hell. Loved it.
The missus is right. Shotgun. You can build or find a longbow for silent, long range kills some other time. A good midrange skirmisher is the first thing you want, since your immediate enemy will be other people.
This is a great example of taking a original film and making the remake your own. Classic.
Seeing this movie in the theater was such an amazing experience. When we left there must have been a fire orb an accident somewhere near where I was because fire trucks and police were flying up the road...It felt like shit was popping off. It had a very ominous feeling
What if a real zombie apocalypse had started by the time u walked out the theater and the police and fire trucks u saw was their first call response of the apocalypse happening…..
@StarKushExoticGalaxy Thats literally what it felt like. The way that movie ended and the music was loud. Me and my brother looked at each other and BOTH had that same feeling. So hard o explain. Never had a feeling like that
@@RemingtonSteel so cool, I can feel what u felt coming out the theater, heart pounding heavy, sweating, scared thinking is this really happening? Omg I want a real life apocalypse to happen so bad!!!
@@StarKushExoticGalaxy I guess we view it differently. I was scared that it was happening and that's the last thing I would want
@@RemingtonSteel it would be perfect, no more school, no law enforcement, no government just a lawless society, it would be true freedom, a world full of sin and evil is what I want to be apart of😈
Fun fact, three actors from the original Dawn of the dead cameos, the priest on the tv was the main cop and he also said the same quote from that movie, the soldier was the other main cop and the sheriff was the famous Tom Savini who was the main biker who raided the mall in the
ok now go watch dead set it like a tv mini series zombie thing its cool
I saw Planet Terror again recently. There are some crazy zombie scenes in that one 😂 lol
Romero movies,The dead 1&2,The Horde.🔥🔥🔥
Exit humanity,Wyrmwood➡not bad.
Brilliant remake, snyder knocked it our of the park with this. Sadly I hated Army of the Dead, all CGI crap and no character development..
Weapon of choice corn combine with the safety features disabled.
Best location Fort Monroe in Virginia. It has a moat with only two ways in 30 ft of wall above the water, and a lighthouse for long range vision.
Bonus the parade ground is plenty big enough to grow crops in.
Budget version just make a wall around something using 40ft shipping containers. They are everywhere.
I feel like a Combine kill was Zombie Kill of the Week one time ;)
Ving Rhames from Pulp Fiction! I'd have loved to have seen what Vincent and Jules would've done in this situation. I bet they'd have some cool dialogue as they're wasting the zombies.
Love Ving. Pulp Fiction is on our list to watch someday as well as the Mission Impossible movies.
@@YouMeTheMovies 😃👍
@@Chris_34 Zed's dead, Christian. Zed's dead. Or, actually... Zeds dead.
"We should be fucking dead man"
8:02 thats Tom Savini, the guy that did all of the special effects for the original Dawn, as well as remade Night.
9:09 thats Ken Foree, who was one of the stars of the original Dawn, and the line he says is a line that he also says in the original Dawn.
The other two stars of the original Dawn also had cameos in the movie, Scott Reiniger was a military man on the TV, and Gaylen Ross had her name placed as signage on a building in the background of the outside shots.
19:57 I mean, honestly, it depends on two things. For one, do the zombies act like World War Z zombies? as in will they be able to climb up over each other like a ladder? if so, then fuck no, get outta there, and 2) If not, then does the mall have a garden shop in it that is selling vegetables? if so, then get that shit planted on the roof ASAP and start growing some food, rationing what available food is currently in the food courts until harvest time. If you can, then just collect rain water, bring down all the barriers on the main doors and windows, and block off any possible service doors, and a mall could actually be a very solid place to hole up.
Tom was also in the original Dawn.
12:09...'human nature doesn't lend you to being an arsehole." You've clearly never met the French. 🤣
Another gem, that was fun. Have you guys ever seen *A Quiet Place?* Think you'd really enjoy it. Keep up the good work! :)
She has seen A Quiet Place. Actually one of her few favorite scary movies. She doesn't have many. She's excited for Part 2. We will have that on our channel as soon as we can haha.
Hey guys! You're just what I needed today. Gonna get on your patreon in june. My bank closes early june so I gotta sort out a new account, so as soon as everything is sorted I'll join up. Blessings. 🙏🏻👊
Why is nobody asking how homeboy's headphones go through the brim of his cowboy hat?
I honestly never liked Luda (The pregnant lady) she was always screaming high pitched.. She'd get a group killed if this happened in real life
Zack Snyders best movie imo. Army of the Dead sucks btw.
I loved the original years before I saw this in the theater. I had a lot of fun watching this, but it definitely was not as good.
You two are great!! Love the facial reactions (and eating popcorn). I've seen the movie a number of times and not once thought about the nurse "not taking off the clothes after dealing with sick people all day." Great call!!!! Oh and the large lady zombie was actually a guy if someone hasn't mentioned it.
Some Dawn of the Dead, baby. Now we're talkin'. As a big zombie horror fan, may I also suggest you guys consider watching the *original Dawn of the Dead from 1978* and the *1990 remake of Night of the Living Dead,* which are two of my very favorites? Pretty please, with sugar on top? 😁
She's seen the original Dawn of the Dead. She hasn't seen Savini's Night of the Living Dead tho. We might be watching that someday soon.
@@YouMeTheMovies Excellent! I very much look forward to that. ❤
The beginning of this movie always bothered me. Is their a nurse alive who doesn't tear off their scrubs the second they walk through the door? Like before the door even has time to close?
I remember seeing this movie as a kid, actually, I watched Dawn of the Dead next to my dad who was completely asleep. In simple words, he let his 7-years-old son watch a horror movie. So, imagine how terrified I was after I saw this film.
"When there is no more room in Hell, the dead will walk the Earth."
All the dead about to rise: "It's free dinner AND real estate." 😉
Get your face away from her 🤣🙌
You two are my favorite youtube couple omg ADOPT ME
It's hard to believe this is a Zack Snyder joint. I loved this movie years before I even knew who Zack Snyder was. I don't think I connected this to him till around Man of Steel. Not to mention this is James Gunn's last screenplay before he made the move to directing. I do wonder what it would've been like if he'd directed this. I used to assume he did direct this because he was a bigger name in my mind from his days writing and at Troma Studios before that. I'm a huge Troma fan. Toxic Avenger, Sgt Kabukiman NYPD, Tromeo and Juliet etc. Good times. As far as remakes go this is easily one of the best which is not easy when talking about the creator of the modern zombie film George Romero.
You guys should check out Quarantine 1 & 2
The fat lady zombie (and by extension, all zombies in this movie) moves faster than normal because there is no message between her brain and muscles for pain or fatigue, no shortness of breath through physical exertion. Her muscles are exceeding their life abilities because the brain isn't receiving the message of pain and damage, it's why the guy at the start can break through a bathroom door with his head.
08:04 - Actor/director/makeup artist Tom Savini 😀
09:16 - Actor Ken Foree from the original Dawn of The Dead - 1978
I enjoyed re-watching this movie with you both, LOL! I would love to watch you both play Left For Dead - 2008. I absolutely loved that game. 😀❤. Thanks for the video, guys.
Tom Savini was in the original Dawn of the Dead, as well. He was one of the biker gang members.
Roger was also in it, a cameo on tv
And there was a store in the mall named Gaylen Ross. The girl in the og ver. Cheers
@@uburton I only just realised that he plays that role again in Land of the Dead, now zombified! Same actor, outfit and machete!
@@NickLanng
Yeah, that's him.
Also fun fact James Gunn helped with the script
Wow! You got me by surprise on this one mate. Haha, the lady was barely holding on to the sit! Did you know there is an actual fotage of the Andy's Gun Shop on the extras? It's so cool. This goes on my top 5 best zombie movies. At 15:04 i was like...ups...someone is gonna have a date with a couch tonight bro...HAHAHAHA. Wonderful reaction guys! 😎👍
“I don’t like fast zombies”!
So slow ones are okay with you? 😂😂😂😂😂
Y’all’s faces are EVERYTHING!! Love it!!!
Hi y'all. I saw the original in the movie theater when I was in 8th grade. I like this one much better. 28 days later started the running zombies. Night of the Living Dead still the scariest movie I ever saw. I was 11 when I saw it and it scared the piss out of me. Good reaction. Keep up the good work.
Dork, do you know why NIGHT's slow-zombies is so scary? They are, to me. I frankly dislike the 28-SERIES (and this film) where all zombies are Usain-Bolt types - everyone is an Olympic Sprinter, it seems. The Slow Horde seems far more terrifying - "I can run but I can't hide!" That inevitability feeds a depressing hopelessness, and that seems scarier to ponder, I think. What about you? Have you dissected why NIGHT's slow-zombies are so effective, even now?
@@ollietsb1704 I think it's like being on a sinking ship. If it goes down fast there isn't much time to ponder but if it's going down slow it's the building tension that goes along with the inevitability of what is happening. I saw NOTLD about 6 or 7 months after my sister taking me to see Jaws. I thought Jaws was a loss of sleep but it didn't even come close to NOTLD. Then a couple of months later I saw The Exorcist. Didn't sleep for like 2 or 3 years after all that. Hahahahahahahaha
I work in a Walmart and a group of us figured out a way to secure it, use the roof for water gathering and growing food.
The scariest part is the preacher scene.
Matt and Trey from South Park love this movie.
down with the sickness by disturbed. done in the lounge music style is by the artist Richard cheese. Check him out he does all kinds of major hit songs lounge music style.
He has some great songs. :)
I'm not going to lie. This is the most terrifying zombie movie ever for me! Night of the Living Dead is amazing and the original Dawn of the Dead was pretty enjoyable, but this movie scared the hell out of me!! Running zombies!? That's a whole new ball game of survivalism!! On top of that, the zombie baby scene really really upset me!
Mythbusters showed that melee weapons are a lot better than firearms for dealing with Zombies.
when 50 comes at you from 100 differents angles running at full speed no weapon can save you... except if you are inside a tank or a fortified vehicle
*+You, Me, & The Movies* I'm new to your channel, but, if you two ever listen to creepypastas, I'd HIGHLY recommend reacting to We Were Wrong About the Zombie Apocalypse. It was originally a short story posted years ago on Reddit by u/Mushi_to_Sleer. But there are multiple videos on TH-cam now in which a voice narrates it, essentially just like an audiobook.

I really enjoyed this , I love it when the Mrs. gets scared !
Me too! Glad you enjoy it ;)
Thank you for this, honestly! It's so rare to see a first time reaction for this movie cuz everyone I know has already seen it^^
Hope you enjoyed it!
@@YouMeTheMovies Oh yeah, for sure :) Espacially the reaction to one of the first (Am I right on that?) zombie babies xD
I don't know. Would you really assume zombie before anything else? Could you believe it? Even then you're assuming that zombies exist in pop culture in this universe. That isn't always the case. It happens sometimes. There are others where they aren't called zombies. Some are fast, some are slow. This isn't Zombieland. Or even Zombieland 2. or Shaun of the Dead. or Scout's Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse or many others I can't think of.
*Army Of The Dead* is released recently on net
We Get reaction of *Dawn Of The Dead* from *You, Me & The Movies*
Anyways, I like the old 90's film *Army Of The Darkness* the movie which has everything but most importantly *Time Travel!!!*
My ideal long range weapon for a Zombie Apocalypse would be either a long bow or a crossbow. I'm a pretty good shot with a crossbow, but they do take longer to reload than a long bow. I've also recently taken up archery, but I'm not as good with the long bow as I am the crossbow. Bows and crossbows are good because they're quieter than guns and you can recover the arrows for later use. Firing a rifle in a Zombie Apocalypse is essentially ringing the dinner bell.
For medium range weapons I would use a semiautomatic handgun and/or pump action shotgun. If the zombies are close enough for handguns and shotguns, then stealth is no longer an option and you need to go with efficiency.
For close quarters weapons, an aluminum baseball bat and (if I can find one) an authentic army trench knife. A single well placed full force hit to the head with a baseball bat creates the type of brain trauma that puts down a zombie permanently. And trench knives were specifically designed to stab through a military issue helmet and into the skull, puncturing the brain and is ideal for killing zombies (if you can keep from getting bit while using it.
As for the perfect place to seek shelter during a Zombie Apocalypse? Alcatraz! The prison itself is a literal fortress. Being virtually escape proof, it's also very difficult to break into. Stone walls, steel gates, guard towers, a lighthouse, enough beds to house up to 300 people, and enough fertile land to grow crops. Apple and fig trees grow wild on the island providing fresh fruit. Seagulls and pelicans nest on the shores which can be hunted for meat. You're surrounded by water which provides protection from zombies/bandits, fish, and can be distilled into clean drinking water. And the prison itself has been updated with solar energy panels, so you won't have to rely on gas powered generators for electricity. It will require a lot of supplies (gardening tools, fishing equipment, fuel, vegetable seeds, etc) to make it self sustaining, and you'll need a lot of scavenged dried and canned foods to maintain the place for at least a year before it can be self sustaining. But you can develop a solid and safe community of refugees on that island.
"What did you think?" "It was fine." ---- Wow. Clearly a rousing recommendation.
This is always my default reaction to everything in life. He should really wait to ask me that question until after we've talked about it because my opinions don't start to come alive until after we've debriefed. Aside from a few personal survival choices they made, the movie was very enjoyable to watch. Would recommend to anyone that likes zombie survival stories.
Pretty much sums up everything Snyder has done in his career.
Yall are so Awesome!!!! What state yall from?
I think Snyder's subtext in this movie is that dickheads would be the most likely people to survive a zombie apocalypse. The sociable people are doomed because there's always someone who is infected and doesn't tell anyone. As you accept more and more people into your group you approach 100% chance of a zombie outbreaK.
The dad is played by Matt Frewer who was also "Max Headroom'"
Also the dad in Honey I Shrunk the Kids.
