I agree in as much that taken on its own, the remake works fairly well. But compared to the atmospheric, taut original, I find it inferior in pretty much every way. Especially the misjudged CG 'enhancements'. And the Black Beauty nonsense on the ship.

Whilst I don't mind the Dawn remake, I do agree with your criticisms of the film. If I want a high-speed zombie flick with 'runners', I'll throw on 28 Weeks Later. Much better stuff.
