Mistakes

In the very beginning when we are flying over the dead town in a helicopter, look closely at one of the very first shots of the "empty" city. On one of the left side streets you can see a car driving down the road. It’s not a character mistake because she is looking hard out the window and should have spotted the moving car. See more...

Trivia

The actor, Joe Pilato, who plays Major Rhoads in this film had a small role in the Director's Cut of its predecessor, Dawn Of The Dead: he's the police captain at the dock scene. See more...

Entry Towards the end of the movie, just after Rickles is torn apart by the zombies, Steele comes running towards the door that Rhodes locked. He uses his pistol to kill a few zombies, but then he runs out of bullets and puts the gun back in his holster. The slide on his pistol should be back if the chamber is empty, but it appears to be in the normal position. [He either closed the slide out of habit before he holstered it, or he had a misfire as opposed to running out of ammo.]
Entry When they first make it to the mall, one of the characters is washing her hands in the fountain. In the first shot her left hand is just about clean of blood, but in the underwater shot her hand is bloody. [I think you are referring to the Dawn of the dead remake.as there is no mall in this film.]
Entry In the scene where the zombies enter the bunker the soldiers get scared. Capt. Rhodes is the first one to flee - taking the electro car. next time we see him, there are zombies all around him, he actually hits one with the car. So where do the zombies come from? He must have taken a detour (there is none shown, though) or must have driven that slow, that the slow moving zombies could have overtaken him. Both most improbable. [There is a shot that shows that the zombies are escaping from the wooden holding bunker-thing. So the zombies are coming from both sides, and therefore would be in front and behind of Rhodes.]
