Johnny Cash & Dawn of the Dead

[Scotian]

I'm abit of a film geek & enjoy the way a movie is made as much as the actual story. Just watched the remake of Dawn of the Dead & I'd have to say I think the opening credits are right up there with the opening credits of Se7en. The titles made of running blood interspersed with in-your-face zombies combined with Johnny Cash singing "When the Man Comes Around" is very cool. The movie itself is a 1st class remake as well.

Somehow I suspect his estate must have given permission to use this song, since I can't see Johnny being a big Dead trilogy fan.

Yep, the new Dawn Of The Dead has an excellent start...very scary and apocalyptic...and then things get even better with that great opening credit sequence.

The Johnny Cash music fits very well.
