I think this is a function of age.....I can see a younger viewer thinking this was dated and hokey..

It's a good movie. Don't get me wrong. Very campy, humorous, lots of gore, some great lines too... "We got this! We got this by the @ss!"
It's just my taste in zombie movies has changed. I like them now to be darker, a little more gritty. I like zombie movies that take themselves more seriously...and no, The Walking Dead has nothing to do with this.
Just look at Romero's Night of the Living Dead. That was his masterpiece.
I know he did this one too but I could really do without too much of the humor.

Wrong, but any time someone thinks I'm younger than I really am...I'll take it.

Ah, I understand.
It's more about you bein' bent by the current vision of cinema and entertainment in general. That's always an issue. And that's why we get movies like "Dawn of the Dead" and "Blade Runner 2049" whose authors want to shake the foundations of current generation and stagnation of perception. That's why the original DotD is great - Romero went into different direction because the time and the subject were different too. And that's why Snyder's "remake" is puke made for brainless masses to enjoy.

Except I didn't follow the masses. I follow my heart.
Take 30 Days of Night for example. That was a different direction for vampire movies. It was dark, gritty, raw.
Their behavior was very animalistic. They were somewhat Barbaric in that they traveled only to feed and killed because of necessitation. There was no comedy. There was no war with Lycans. No well-funded, gun-toting vampires, wearing nice clothes. That's Anne Rice garbage.

This is what I enjoy watching when I sit down and want to be scared. If I'm looking for slapstick horror I'll look to the Evil Dead movies. That's so much better than Dawn of the Dead. Hell, it's not even close. Evil Dead is both scarier and funnier.

By younger I mean younger when you first see it... has more of an impact if you saw it before seeing any other zombie films

If you have not seen Savini's remake of "Night" it's worth a watch.

Plus for the majority of the film , Dawn was not meant to be a comedy....

The Silence of the Lambs - 10/10

Just in case...
The "brainless masses" was general assumption at the end of what I was tryin' to say, not something aimed at you.

Again, sometimes you just can't get past through what you're used to.
But you really should.

All of it was just a meh representation of the comic book tho, not something original.

Wow are you really that thick?

Sometimes I think you respond to people here just to show your ignorance.

 

[RIDDICK]

I respond to ignorance. Dunno why tho, it never works out. Guess I'm a pathological masochist.

The Mummy (2017) - 5.75/10

Tom Cruise was horribly miscast in this movie, the stabs at humor also felt really out of place. Not much substance to be found here.

Also, stole a lot from other movies like Lifeforce and American Werewolf in London.

Still, liked it better than the Brendan Fraser abortion.

Pretty generous score. I even had to ff often to get through it.
