Dawn of the Dead - Original Vs Remake - The Long Walk Vs The Full Sprint

Slow zombies… fast zombies… and one of the greatest horror remake debates of all time.In this episode of The Deja Review, we head into the zombie apocalypse to compare the legendary horror classic Dawn of the Dead, directed by George A. Romero, with the high-intensity remake Dawn of the Dead, directed by Zack Snyder.The 1978 original became one of the most influential zombie films ever made, blending horror, social commentary, and unforgettable moments inside a shopping mall overrun by the undead. Decades later, the 2004 remake reimagined the story with fast-moving zombies, relentless action, and a modern take on survival horror.Mart and Trev break down the zombies, the scares, the action, the social themes, and the biggest differences between the two films, asking whether the remake improves the formula or if the original still stands as the ultimate zombie classic.Do the slow zombies still rule the apocalypse…or do the fast zombies take over?When there’s no more room in hell… the debate begins.Two long time friends, one podcast.This is The Deja Review.Enjoy the episode and remember to like, follow and tell your friends.As always a massive thank you to Little Foil Fish for our theme tune - ⁠ ⁨@LittleFoilFish⁩ ⁠Mart & TrevSubscribe to the Podcast - ⁠ ⁨@TheDejaReview⁩ Chapters00:00 Introduction to Deja Review00:47 Exploring Dawn of the Dead03:10 The Impact of George A.
