    four simple words...

    "Dawn of the Dead"

    If you ever have warm fuzzies for shopping malls, see this film and reconsider your position...

    My favorite part of this film was the mall's 'muzak' playing as the zombies staggered around.

    The irony is, when you go to the mall now, much of the late 70's pop / synth music that was popular when DOTD was released is what is playing on the muzak today.
