George A. Romero\u2019s \u201cDawn of the Dead\u201d isn\u2019t just one of the greatest zombie flicks of all time. It\u2019s also one of the finest movies ever to come out of the overall horror genre, deserving of a spot alongside such classics as \u201cThe Texas Chain Saw Massacre,\u201d \u201cBlack Christmas\u201d and \u201cHalloween.\u201d<\/p>\n

It\u2019s got pretty much everything one wants in a horror film \u2014 gripping storyline, plenty of tense moments, intriguing characters and, yes, plenty of gooey gore. And the 1978 movie has held up incredibly well over the years \u2014 much better than most of Romero\u2019s other zombie epics. In all, it\u2019s every bit as deserving of the label \u201cclassic\u201d as its groundbreaking predecessor, \u201cNight of the Living Dead,\u201d which Romero unleashed on an unexpecting film world in 1968.<\/p>\n

In honor of the film\u2019s 45 anniversary, \u201cDawn of the Dead\u201d is returning to theaters across North America this spring. In the Bay Area, it\u2019s playing April 12, 13 and 15 at the Alamo Drafthouse Cinema in San Francisco.
