28 Dyas Later's storyline was that they were infected by "rage"... and you think thats good? I actually thought the storyboard ending they had was much better than the one's that made it to film.

In none of the "...of the dead" movies is it ever explained why they come back to life. Thats the point. You have to understand the inspiration for the film. George Romero is a socialist. He made the Dead movies as a metaphor for the inevitable rise of the proletariat over the upper classes. The remake kept this theme.

Also, Dawn of the Dead had much better character development and it was more about the people who were surrounded by the zombies than the zombies themselves.

SPOILERS AND SUCH I GUESS!!!! (^-^v

Yeah, one of the endings was basically just the same as the normal one, except the guy died... And there was extra footage of the women trying to save his life but failing...

I thought 28 Days Later's ending was a mixed bag... I liked the whole idea of just outliving the zombies as they starved to death, but then the whole writing out "Hello" with sheets seemed a bit silly... They could have done something else that took less effort and sheets...

Yeah, something with more guns and bombs woulda been better. Damn crappy pacifistic endings

Yeah, "Help" would have been shorter.
But then again, the word "Hell" in his dream was cool...
