That's not to dismiss the impact of the original. This is both a very difficult film and a very good one.Īnd Romero himself has matured as a filmmaker since "Night of the Living Dead" "Dawn" is very assured, is edited with a clear confidence in the effects he wants. If we can survive the gruesome imagery and see beyond the obligatory scenes of the horror genre, Romero gives us a savagely satiric vision of America that's not easy to forget. ![]() "Dawn" is a carefully crafted work that shouldn't be confused with run-of-the-mill horror exploitation films. ![]() And yet if she had stayed, she would have discovered that the film has more elements than its simple violence, that this film can't easily be dismissed.

The series started on a high with the five-starred first novel, Crooked Tree Ranch, followed by the five-plus-starred sequel, The Rancher’s Son.
