Dawn of the Dead Synopsis
Dawn of the Dead starts in
an emergency broadcast television station with lots of disarray and confusion
before it settles on some National Guard troops who have set upon some public
housing with an outbreak of zombies.
Pretty soon the movie
settles in on the lives of four individuals – two National Guard members (Peter
played by Ken Foree and Roger played by Scott H. Reiniger), a traffic reporter (Stephen played by David Emge), and his TV Exec girlfriend (Francine played by Gaylen Ross). This group sets their sights on a Mall in the
rust belt and try their best to fortify the mall. Eventually, things calm down,
and life returns to ), pace before outside forces beyond their control throw
everything into disarray.
