ʻAe piha wau ʻaʻole maopopo iaʻu pehea ka lōʻihi o ka nānā ʻana iā 1978's Alaula o ka poe make. Me ka hala hou a weliweli hoʻi o ka hele ʻana o ka moʻolelo kaʻao weliweli ʻO George A Romero, ua like kēia me ka manawa kūpono e noho ai i lalo a nānā i kekahi o kāna mau kiʻi ʻoniʻoni maikaʻi loa. 

Me ka laʻa hihiu o nā mea āpau zombie i kēia honua kupaianaha o ka pāpāho weliweli, maʻalahi e lilo i hoihoi ʻole i kahi kiʻi ʻoniʻoni zombie hou aʻe. Akā Dawn o ka moana ʻaʻole ia he kiʻi ʻoniʻoni zombie, ʻo ia kekahi o nā mea i manaʻo maoli i kekahi mea. Ua kōkua ia i ka hoʻokumu ʻana i ke ʻano sub-ʻano a mākou i kēia lā, i nā manawa āpau e hāʻawi ana i kahi leka ʻoniʻoni ma o nā wīwī o gore ikaika.

Dawn o ka moana loaʻa ia wahi i loko o kā Stephen Schneider puke o “1001 Nā kiʻi ʻoniʻoni āu e ʻike ai ma mua o kou make ʻana". He mea maʻamau ia, a manaʻo wau e like me kahi ʻelemakule cranky ke ʻōlelo wau i kēia, akā ʻaʻole lākou e hana hou iā lākou e like me kēia.

Ua hana ʻo Romero i ka zombie o kēia au me ʻO ka pō o ka Mea Ola, ke neʻe nei ma ʻō o nā lā voodoo o ka wā kahiko e hana i ka hoʻoweliweli infectious a mākou āpau i ʻike a aloha ai. I loko o Dawn o ka moana, kūkulu ʻo ia ma luna o ke mele reanimated e hoʻohui i ka manaʻo pili e pili ana i ka shambling, mindless consumerism i laha loa i ke kaiāulu a hiki i ke kani ʻana o ka lā, ke nānā nei no ka manawa mua ma 2017.

Hoʻomaka ke kiʻi ʻoniʻoni ma ke keʻena ʻoihana TV ma hope o nā hanana o ʻO ka pō o ka Mea Ola. Ua ulu ikaika ka ulu ʻana o ka zombie, ke kū nei ka makaʻu, a ʻaʻohe mea i ʻike maoli i ka mea e hana ai.

ʻOiai ke hoʻopaʻapaʻa nei nā mea hoʻokūkū o ka papakaumaka, ua hoʻoholo ka luna o TV TV ʻo Francine (Gaylen Ross) i ka hoʻoholo ʻana e hoʻopau i ka holo ʻana i ka scrawl e hoʻomaopopo ai i ka poʻe e nānā ana i nā "ʻāpana palekana" ma ia wahi. ʻO kēlā ʻikepili ua hala ka lā a ʻaʻole loa ia e hoʻouna i kekahi i kahi pahele make. ʻO kēia ka ʻike mua maoli a mākou e loaʻa ai i kekahi o kā mākou protagonist ma o ke kiʻi ʻoniʻoni, a ua maopopo koke ʻaʻole ʻo ia he kaikamahine puʻupaʻa.

ʻO ka mea i hōʻike ʻia, i ka wā o ke paʻi kiʻi ʻana, hōʻole ʻo Ross e walaʻau. He wahine wahine ikaika ʻo Francine a me ka ʻuwā ʻana e hoʻēmi ai i kēlā ikaika. Ua hōʻole ʻo ia e pāʻani i kahi ʻano e hakakā ʻole i nā zombies iā ia iho. ʻO kēlā hilinaʻi hiki ke kaua a Ross no ka mea nui. ʻAʻole kāna ʻano he pua luʻuluʻu, pono ʻo ia i ke ola o ka hui e like me nā mea ʻē aʻe.

ʻO kāna hoapili, ʻo Stephen (David Emge), kahi mea hoʻopuka kālepa, e hoʻolālā e pakele i ka haunaele me Francine ma o ka helikopa. He mahalo a kaulike ko lākou pilina, a he mea kupaianaha maoli nō ia.

ʻO Peter (Ken Foree) a me Roger (Scott H. Reiniger) kā mākou mea hana keaka, he mau hoa aloha maikaʻi loa i kū mai ka hōkū mai nā kime SWAT like ʻole. Hālāwai lākou i ka wā e hoʻāʻo nei kā lākou kime e hana i kahi papahana hale e hōʻole e hoʻohuli i ko lākou poʻe make i ka National Guardsmen.

Pili ke kaʻina i kahi hiʻohiʻona maikaʻi loa i ka hale ilalo o ka pāpū kahi e hui ai ʻo Petero i kahi lumi piha i nā kino haʻalele.

I ka puʻu o nā pulse undead a me nā squirms, e ʻeha nei no ka ʻiʻo o ka poʻe ola, ua kū ʻo Peter i ka weliweli o ke kī ʻana i kēlā me kēia kanaka. ʻAʻole lākou e noho nei, akā he kauoha hōʻeha nō ia e hoʻokō. Kōkua ʻo Roger iā Peter i kāna hana a hoʻoholo lākou e hui pū me nā koa. Ke kūkulu ʻia kā lākou paʻa, ua kono ʻo Roger iā Petero e hui pū me ia, ʻo Stephen, a me Francine i ko lākou pakele lele.

Ma hope o kekahi mau kuʻina ma kā lākou ala, hele lākou i kahi mall nui i haʻalele ʻia a hoʻonohonoho i kahi hoʻomoana. Pono wau e hāʻawi iā lākou i ka hōʻaiʻē, no ka mea ʻaʻole like me nā lollygaggers i ka 2004 Dawn o ka moana hana hou, hana lākou e hoʻopaʻa i ko lākou wahi koke, me ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā ʻano hana like ʻole o ka hoʻoponopono ʻana a me ka pale ʻana i ka poʻe make.

E like me kaʻu i ʻōlelo ai ma mua, makemake nui ʻia e hoʻonoho ʻia ke kiʻi ʻoniʻoni ma kahi hale kūʻai. He wahi maikaʻi loa ia e hoʻomoana ai i ke komo ʻana i nā mea āpau āu e makemake ai (nā lole, nā pū, nā meaʻai, The Brown Derby Luv Pub) a he mea ia e noʻonoʻo ai i ka moʻomeheu mea ʻole. Hōʻike ʻia nā zombies i kahi mau pūʻulu e like me ka hana pono ʻana o lākou a pau ma ka pailaka pailaka, e lele ana i kahi o ka ʻoluʻolu.

I kēia manawa, ma ke ʻano he ʻaoʻao ʻē, makemake wau e lawe i kahi manawa e ʻōlelo ai i koʻu mahalo nui i ka hōʻike mua ʻana i ka wā ma mua o ka hāpai ʻana o Francine. Kōkua ia i ka hoʻokumu ʻana i kahi kaʻina manawa i loko o ke kiʻi ʻoniʻoni - hiki iā mākou ke ʻike i ko lākou holomua ma o ka ulu ʻana o kāna ʻōpū pēpē - a kūkulu i kahi pilikia hou ma ka hope o kou noʻonoʻo.

ʻO Dario Argento a me The Goblins ka mele no ke kiʻi ʻoniʻoni (ʻaʻole pili, akā ʻo "Dario Argento lāua ʻo The Goblins" e hana i kahi inoa kapa maikaʻi). Mahope o kaʻu hou-nana hou o Suspiria, Ua ʻike wau ua aloha nui wau Dawn o ka moanaKa helu ʻai.

He leʻaleʻa a pāʻani hoʻi ia, akā hoʻomanaʻo ia iā ʻoe i ka nui o ka mall Muzak āu i lohe ai i ka wā e paʻa ai i kahi escalator piha. He lapuwale ia i kekahi manawa, ke hui pū ʻia me nā hana gruesome āu e hōʻike nei ma ka papakaumaka. Hoʻohui lākou e hana i kahi hopena kōmike e ola a ola - kahi hoʻopili maikaʻi i ka make a mākou e ʻike nei ma ka papakaumaka.

A malia paha, ma ke ʻano holoʻokoʻa, ʻoi aku ka nui o ke kiʻi ʻoniʻoni ma mua o ka make. Pakele ko mākou mau koa mai ka make i loko o ko lākou wahi palekana ponoʻī, e hānai nei i ke ola hou e ulu nei i loko o Francine, a hoʻolauleʻa i ka manawa a lākou i hui pū ai ma mua o ke kanikau ʻana i kā lākou hopena. He mea maikaʻi loa ia no kahi kiʻi ʻoniʻoni e pili ana i nā moʻo ʻai ʻiʻo o ka ʻiʻo.

Nui koʻu hauʻoli, hōʻike ke kiʻi ʻoniʻoni i kahi comeo nui loa mai ka Godfather o Gore iho, ʻo Tom Savini. ʻO ka mea maʻamau, ua hana ʻo Savini i nā hopena makeup ʻinoʻino āpau. Hoʻomaʻemaʻe ke koko i kahi ʻulaʻula nani hanohano, hohola ka ʻiʻo a me nā waimaka, a me ka nahu zombie nahu i ka visceral a me kaʻiʻo. ʻO nā mea āpau āu e makemake ai mai kahi kiʻi ʻoniʻoni zombie, a me, ke ʻano pai pie-i-ka-alo. ʻAʻole wau e kolo iā ʻoe.

Ma ke ʻano holoʻokoʻa, ʻoliʻoli maoli wau Dawn o ka moana a hauʻoli loa wau ua hoʻokaʻawale wau i ka manawa e hoʻolilo ia i ʻāpana o kaʻu huaʻōlelo kiʻiʻoniʻoni. Inā ʻaʻole ʻoe i ʻike ia, ʻāpono wau iā ia. Pili ʻia paha ia, akā he manawa maikaʻi maikaʻi ia.

No nā mea hope loa i ka ʻaoʻao, nānā i kēia nānā mua ʻana o Moana!
