Though they're now better known for their superhero work, Zack Snyder and James Gunn left an early mark with their 'Dawn of the Dead' remake.
If you are reading this article and visit Collider with any regularity, you almost certainly know who Zack Snyder and James Gunn are. Snyder is the former music-video director who successfully crossed over to features, where he made his name on a string of visually striking and overly serious comic-book adaptations, including 300, Watchmen, Man of Steel, and Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.
Its plot follows the same basic setup as Romero's undisputed 1978 classic: A zombie apocalypse has thrown the world into chaos, and a small group of survivors barricades themselves inside a large shopping mall while they figure out how best to stay alive through the weeks ahead. Past that, the films largely go their separate ways. Each movie has a completely different cast of characters.
Dawn of the Dead '04 is surprisingly lacking many of the visual flourishes Snyder would later become know for. There's no speed ramping here at all! But he quickly establishes himself as someone who can effectively sell a sequence almost entirely based on the placement and movement of the camera.
Characters who are strictly stereotypes at first evolve in surprising ways. C.J., who in a lesser film would have been an antagonistic presence the whole way through, fairly quickly figures out that it's the zombies who are the problem and learns to work alongside and maybe even begrudgingly like Ana and her group.
