Dawn Of The Dead Page #5

They'll put a camera in the toilet.

Freak show.

- There's the toilet.

- There it is.

There it comes again. Close-up.

- That may have been the toilet's double.

- l love it.

There's our mall.

Andrew Neskoromny built this mall.

We took over -

only Hollywood people would do this -

we took over a mall

and built a mall inside of it.

That's true, we took a mall

and we redid the mall. Great.

There's a Wooley's Diner.

Yeah, Wooley from

the Pittsburgh Police Department.

- Gets chomped by a zombie.

- And deserves it.

There's our Hallowed Grounds.

That was our coffee shop.

- You named it.

- Yeah, l thought it was funny.

Cos we couldn't get any of the chain...

No. ln the script it's all Starbucks and,

you know, The Gap. ''Yeah, we'll get 'em.''

Exactly. lmagine how often Starbucks

would have been in the movie.

Awesome, cos the whole movie

takes place at Hallowed Grounds.

Our sporting goods store.

Bookmark - great name for a book store.

lt was an exercise

in discovering fake names.

lt was quite a long exercise.

Gaylen Ross, the department store,

we'd tried to track down

who we felt were the five most significant

players in the original movie,

obviously Gaylen being

one of them and she...

This is a great moment -

''ls a zombie gonna jump out?''

- We got the loudest shotgun...

- Here it comes, bam! lmpossible.

We called Gaylen Ross

and she wasn't available

but we named

the department store after her.

And David, Flyboy, we couldn't find.

A lot of fans have noticed the Gaylen Ross.

- l've seen that on the internet.

- ''Gaylen Ross!''

Someone in a screening told me when the

department store came up people cheered

and he had no idea

what they were clapping for.

This is Jake kind of doing something crazy.

- ''l'll just go check...''

- ''That's bad.'' lf you're him...

''Why are you going in there?''

l love that, he goes in anyway.

There's a great moment coming up,

he makes a real genius weapons choice.

Whatever's in the script,

it's like, ''Let's trade this in for that.''

''Let me get rid of this gun

and pick up this...''

- Tennis racket.

- Yeah.

- There's a fly swatter and a mortar.

- ''l'll take the fly swatter every time.

- ''Cos l'm that kind of guy.''

- That's good.

- Hallowed Grounds back there.

- Yeah. They got a lot of exposure.

They did. Unfortunately they don't exist.

lt's funny, we shot

all the security scenes inside there.

- lnside there is the set.

- lt is the security office.

Yeah, which is kinda cool.

Mekhi's awesome. He's just awesome.

He was filming in Montreal as well,

and he was going back and forth.

Look at him. And he'd just come in

and rock star these scenes.

- We reshot this.
