Mira Sorvino & Ving Rhames to star in "Day Of The Dead Remake".

i thought ving's character was infected in the dawn of the dead remake? i mean, they never showed him turning zombie or anything, but he got cut in the zombie-blood infected water fountain, and the camera man/editor made a pretty big deal about showing it up close.

maybe it is his character's brother?

either way... new zombie movie = happy justin.
 
and while i'm on the subject, what ever happened at teh end of the dawn of the dead remake? they
made it to that island, and it was over run by zombies, and that was it? so they're supposedly all dead?

Day of The Dead remake is supposed to have no link to Dawn of the Dead remake.

Ving Rhames just happens to be starring in both.
I would've prefered a link, but oh well. :(
 
I really like running zombies though. I hope they don't cave into the zombie purist lobby and abandon what has got to be the best horror convention invented in this decade.
 
And people in spartan armor on Unicorns.

It's called "acting".

I meant him having a problem with it is what's re... forget it.
 
I hated the DotD remake, so I'm not really looking forward to this. And Ving coming back doesn't make matters any better.

Also, running zombies aren't terrible... but the way it was executed was. Come on, running zombies that make roaring noises? Ugh. They seemed like ******ed cheetah people.
 
Dude, now that's what I'm watching.
"Day of the ******ed Cheetah People"!:up:

Actually, if they were to call it that, I'd go see it, too. :confused:

Where did you hear this?
 
28 Days Later people technically weren't zombies.
 
the zombies weren't given an explanation anyway so what does it matter if they ran fast?
 
Hearing Mira Sorvino is in it convinces me to see this film

The Dawn remake was aweful. Zombies are NOT track stars.

The zombies in the Dawn remake were freshly dead so they weren't quite hindered by things like rigor mortis which would have slowed them down, plus they wouldn't have to breathe since they were already dead so they would have been able to get around much faster than the living without ever getting tired. They should have done them in stages, like they start out just as fast or faster than humans & then they gradually start to get slower as they begin decaying more & more etc.

i like running zombies if they've just died, and their muscle tissue isn't broken down, or given in to rigor mortis yet... after a while they should be the stiff, shambling zombies we know and love.
 
Wolverine2 is being a bit dense and slow.

There is no reason why Ving Rhames couldn't play the same character that he played in Dawn Of The Dead.

I really enjoyed the Dawn Of The Dead remake. It kicks ass.

It's funny, because I was sure I would hate it. I had the typical reaction to the news of a DOTD remake. "Houw could they", "enough of these damn remakes", etc". But the remake kicks ass! They take the basic concepts - zombies in a mall - and everything else is different. It's a much more fast paced, action packed afair but without being too holywoodized or stylized. It's got the right stuff.
 
I agree with the posters who liked the runing zombies based on the stages of how long they were dead for(that's how I'm writing one of my zombie stories), but the only thing I didn't like about them running is they seemed to run faster than the normal people could. I know some people are faster than others but they somehow had superspeed.

Just so you know, I love the Dawn of the Dead remake, it's a great movie, but the truth is it sucked as a remake. Even during the making it was said to not be a true remake that it had it's own story and the only thing similar to the original were the people were in a mall. I was fine with that.

I really hope the Day of the Dead movie will be a sequel to Dawn because I want to know what happened after the people from Dawn got to the island. Don't try telling me what happened because it's all just speculation. I want Day to continue the story and I'll be fine with introducing new characters.
 
I loved the DotD remake. And Ving Rhames means I'm seeing this one too.
