Dawn of the Dead (2004) Movie REACTION!!! *FIRST TIME WATCHING*

[@maximillianosaben]

P.S. CJ's character arc from intro to exit was incredibly well handled.

[@Nightangel8212]

The infection time relies on how long it takes for the bite to kill someone. Anna's husband had his throat torn out, so he died quickly.... Luda was basically grazed by the zombie's teeth, so it took a long time for the infection to spread and kill her. Nicole's father had a much more substantial bite on his hand, so he lived for a short while before the infection took him.

[@shootingreal5945]

I also think one's own health plays a factor, there is a age difference between Nicoles dad and Luda, so like any infection, the time it takes to spread varies bc of this.

[@SgtCthulhu]

2004 had the best zombie movies: Dawn of the Dead and Shaun of the Dead. If you haven't seen Shaun of the Dead, you really should - it's my favorite zombie movie ever.

[@Richardwho-vv5bh]

In that year. The best zombie movies in general are the Romero zombie movies.

[@SgtCthulhu]

@@Richardwho-vv5bh Dawn of the Dead (2004) is a remake of Romero's classic 1978 zombie film, while Shaun of the Dead takes inspiration from Romero's work with humor. Romero is the godfather of the zombie film genre, influencing countless films that followed if not all of them.

[@donaldseale2700]

People love to hate on CJ, but he was the only one in the group who had any real survival instincts. The moment they took over from him was when everything started getting worse.

[@shootingreal5945]

Yup..as soon as they took over they let that old bitten lady in..I am not trying to be mean but in this situation, you have to make tough calls and not be overwhelmed by emotions. The fact is CJ was right..moreover the mall doesn't have unlimited food, what happens when starvation sets in, you will then have the ppl inside the mall turning in a different way on each other..ppl need to think ahead when it comes to survival and that means making touch choices that don't sit well with us as human beings but they still have to be made..that's what separates survivors and leaders.

[@jonathanparker1774]

Honestly still stings anytime I rewatch the movie and CJ dies, if Michael dropped the news he was bit sooner, he could have swapped with CJ and drew the zombies in and sacrificed himself instead of losing two people. CJ and Kenneth surviving would've be awesome but ehh

[@L77045]

CJ's character arc is amazing. Yeah, he had survival instincts in the beginning, but a lot of negative qualities as well. Makes it even more impressive when he becomes selfless and sacrifices his own survival instincts.

[@orangewarm1]

'Survival instincts'? It's really a matter of whether you want to live for yourself or try to help the community. If CJ had his way, all those who came to him would be turned away.

[@donaldseale2700]

@@orangewarm1 And by not turning people away is what ultimately got him and the others he was with killed. Even without the threat of letting in someone infected, the resources in that mall was limited. With every person that is let in, the time you can hold out is cut down. The days of caring about morality was over. It was all about survival.

[@barbaramcgee8933]

If you haven't seen Train to Busan then that should be next. Absolutely fantastic zombie movie!

He already did.

[@thomasbaker2067]

I was really surprised that by this remake, Zack`s direction and James` screenplay is amazing

MovieFusion reacting to one of my favorites on a Saturday morning… life is good

[@greigclement9081]

The original 1977 Dawn of the Dead movie was set in a mega-mall which were just becoming popular back then. There was some social satire about consumerism from Romero. I also recommend the 1990 colour remake of Night of the Living Dead.

[@setdrift]

it's a classic. 20 years later and it holds up very well.

[@kevinwendellcrumb1802]

20 years later and it’s still my favorite zombie movie. I love CJs character development

[@aragon77]

Yes, it's that Heather Langenkamp. Her husband also was on the production crew. Watch the original. That was a fantastic movie.

[@patriciapritchard3018]

WHAT!?!?!?!?🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯

[@kylewestlake982]

Had a horror movie marathon yesterday with some friends and this was the first movie we watched. Everyone loved it, and I hadn't see this in like 10 years and forgot how great it was. Very impressive on Snyder and Gunn's part. CJ's arc was really well done. This movie has always been special to me because I discovered Disturbed, the second band I fell in love with.

[@jh5131]

Saw this in theater with some friends, theater was packed everyone was really into it was great. This movie really kicked off the modern zombie craze I think

[@brucewayne33497]

Little fun fact for anyone who might not know the legless zombie in the underground parking garage that wasn't any special effects or cgi the actor actually is legless in real life

[@Hebrew_Israelite_Young_jedi]

This was a great reaction man ✌🏽💪🏽💯 dawn of the dead is my favorite movie ever

[@dannyluv78]

Andy should've waited for the dog by the small door or portal and closed it immediately after the dog got in.

[@SandraMorris51]

I only saw recently that Heather Langenkamp and her husband worked on this movie. Pretty cool! Also every time I see Johnny Viti in the Penguin I think of how badass he was in this😊

[@SandraMorris51]

This and 28 Days later are my favorite zombie movies. I’d never seen fast zombies before and it’s terrifying! I remember before this premiered they released the first 15 minutes on tv and I was hooked immediately.

[@yamikage8826]

4:28 "Here Johnny"

[@HackWilson14]

For director’s cuts, there’s many reasons why director’s cuts aren’t the theatrical cut. Director’s cuts or extended additions usually just have extra scenes that were cut for time or pacing. So they’re usually not that different unless there’s a lot of scenes that were cut out for time. Director’s cut or new cuts of films that have been out for a while is just another opportunity for said film to make more money through the sales and publicity

[@mickyjoe97]

Heather Langenkamp and her husband I believe started their own company that works on the SFX in horror movies like the makeup and stuff.

[@elcacha4427]

Train to busan is for me the very best zombie movie of all time

[@eddietucker7005]

My friend, Tyler Bates, did the score. He’s also done 300, Belko Experiment and tons more…

[@Richardwho-vv5bh]

If you want more great zombie movies, then the George Romero movies are a must. He created the genre, shows like The Walking Dead exist thanks to him.

[@petitcroquette7831]

If you love to watch zombie movies, I recommend you to watch: 1) Shaun of the Dead (2004) => this is a parody of Dawn of the Dead 2) I am Legend (2007) (based on book/novel) => this movie has 2 alternate endings and I recommend you to watch all of them! 3) The Girl With All The Gifts (2016) (based on book/novel) Happy watching...🙂

[@revivalofnutrient]

As much of an ahole as CJ is he had better survival instincts then the rest. Reminds me of Shane from TWD.

[@vinnnceeee]

im waiting for this. thank you for the upload.

[@dannyluv78]

The Sadness (Taiwanese movie) has a different and unique attack for a zombie movie. It's just violent and crazy. And in addition, I would like also to recommend I am a Hero (Japanese zombie movie)..

[@johnbarber201]

As vicious as these zombies are, even they wouldn't harm a dog

[@HaloOverOurDemise]

This is one of the ONLY remakes that is truly enjoyable and is just a good film. Id highly highly recommend watching most 'of the dead' films when you get a chance, especially day of the dead but I'm partial to that with it being my favourite. You just need to remember/when/ they were made when you watch them

[@cityrat3237]

I fucking LOVE this movie. It’s one of the movies that got me into horror as a kid

[@martinlatour9311]

If you want to see more scary zombies, you should watch the South Korean Netflix series All of Us Are Dead. It’s about a group of high school students struggling to survive a zombie outbreak. Season 1 was released in 2022. Season 2 will be filmed next year.

[@TheKing20501]

He could also always watch "28 Days Later" & "28 Weeks Later" with a Third one coming soon, unless he have already seen "Days Later" & "Weeks Later"..

[@skerr808]

@@TheKing20501 He's already seen those. :) He has also seen "Rec" "Train to Busan" and "World War Z" :) These are all good. I'd say my favorite is "Rec" because it's not necessarily an outbreak, it's just an infection in a quarantined building and yet it's terrifying AF (As F*ck)! :)

Yeah, unfortunately it was blocked and actually caused a strike on my channel a while ago. Usually I try to reupload those videos quickly but Paramount was even threatening legal action against me for it (which makes zero sense), and the video only had like a thousand views anyways so I didn't think it was worth the trouble to try and re-upload. I might try again in the future though since I have had a few people ask where the video went.

[@HackWilson14]

Netflix were the morons that paid Zack Snyder to make a movie while also planning to realize a different version while dubbing it a directors cut, just to make money. That was a dumb idea that only Netflix has done, and it didn’t work out for them. Legit movie studios wouldn’t have done something so dumb, though they do dumb stuff all the time just not Netflix levels of dumb. Justice League, Zack Snyder was replaced by a different director, and that version sucked. Warner Bros listened to the fans and allowed Snyder to do extra scenes to make his version. That was a very very unique situation that isn’t likely to happen again. Warner Bros just really needed the money and they recognized an unusual opportunity. Director’s cut aren’t so different to the final product as Snyder Cut is.
