See this film: Dawn of the Dead @fter midnight at the Coolidge

It's not as good as George Romero's 1978 original, but it does have Sarah Polley blowing away zombies with a shotgun and one of the last uses of found-footage horror that actually is scary. Zack Snyder's Dawn of the Dead (2004) uses the same premise as Romero - a random group of strangers holed up in a shopping mall fending off hordes of zombies - except here the zombies are superfast and the cultural commentary minimal.
