The remake is definately worth a watch - has some good effects.
However, for me it just can't come close to the original. Romero's Dawn of the Dead seems to me to have a rhythm and pacing about it that is just right. Makes it feel a lot shorter than its running time. The characters develop a depth about them that somehow doesn't require lengthy character-building scenes outside of the main plotline. A great piece of film making.
