Oh, I know: I'm fond of it, too, and not only because I've had a crush on Sara Polley for quite some time. However, the original does a better job of showing that there's precious little difference between the zombies in the mall and real-life customers who are presumably still alive.

Agreed. I thought the remake played things a bit too straight, aside from the brilliant closing sequence, set to Richard Cheese's version of "Down With the Sickness" The original beats the remake as social critique; the remake still scores, though, as a high-grade horror movie.
