Dawn of the Dead

Dawn of the Dead is a 2004 American action horror film directed by Zack Snyder, in his feature directorial debut, from a screenplay by James Gunn. A remake of George A. Romero's 1978 film of the same name, the film features an ensemble cast that includes Sarah Polley, Ving Rhames, Jake Weber, and Mekhi Phifer, with Scott Reiniger, Tom Savini, and Ken Foree from the original film appearing in cameos. Set in Milwaukee, its plot follows a group of survivors who try to survive a zombie apocalypse while holed up in a suburban shopping mall. Producers Eric Newman and Marc Abraham developed the film rather as a "re-envisioning" of the original Dawn of the Dead, aiming to reinvigorate the zombie genre for modern audiences. They bought the rights from co-producer Richard P.
