i have see every dead movie many time and and i have even write a spec script for dusk of the dead . here what right and wrong with this remake of the 1968 classic . spoiler ahead spoiler ahead 1. right barbara get strong . look at romero other film dawn and dusk and strong female like fran and sarah play tough and believable character . the catatonic barbara in night 68 be way too weak and especially for a romero film . although the execution wasn not as good a i would have like ( more on that later ) and it be the right decision . 2. wrong the music . though the original used library sample for it music and they be very well pick and add a chilling side to the action and with very few hitch . here and though and an annoy score sometimes take the viewer out of the picture . good to leave the music out altogether . 3. right play on people expectation . the opening cemetery scene be one heck of a shock . shoot at a gas pump . not a good ideapositive . 4. wrong harry cooper . the point of this film be to make harry out to be a complete a hole . he hit his wife and drink and argues and and doesn not even sound rational . the original make harry an angry and nasty guy and but he help some ( throw the cocktail and etc . ) and make some good argument for stay in the basement . here and all he do be shout at everyone not fun . 5. right effect . great makeup here and absolutely convince . much good than the average horror film . 6. wrong pacing . when the house be be board and the zombie attack constantly and and overpower the human several time . you would have to be an idiot to stay up there if the zombie be that strong . the first one make stay upstairs a viable option . 7. right the third option of just get the heck away . with a rifle and a shotgun and it shouldn not be too hard to get everyone past the zombie and into the open . 8. neutral the end . certainly a radical change for barbara character and but it make sense in context of harry behavior . 9. neutral decrease role of tv or radio report . it nice to focus on the matter at hand and but see the wide view of thing be fun and too . it good that they do not explain why the dead be rise . there you have it . comment from a die hard dead fan . the film be about a 6 positive and depend on how you like the series in general . it comparable to day and in other word .
