Dawn Of The Dead 2004 Scene Analysis
This is one of the first scenes in the opening credits of Dawn Of The Dead 2007, where they use a load of montage clips of the disease spreading, panic and destruction, showing the effects of the country. The beginning of the clip shows the infected people with blood running from their mouths, this is very quick montage scenes introducing the film with blood red writing (Dawn Of The Dead). It then shows the government saying they don't know what is causing the disease while music in the background starts to play, Johnny Cash, The Man Comes Around. This song is very powerful to the scene because it's about Judgement Day when the world will fall apart, and "When there's no room in hell, and when the dead will walk the Earth". He wrote the song before his death and it has a number of bible references in the song. I think this scene is so powerful, because the right song was played, it may seem calm but however, it raises goosebumps of the audience because it relates to terrorism. Three years before this film 9/11 happened, and it was a wake up call to America, it was the most devastating thing that had happened, and this creates tension and a real scare to the audience.
