USA Network To Preview "DAWN of the Dead" Remake
Cable network to air 10-minute clip on March 15.
In a promotional move billed as the first of its kind, cable television's USA Network said Monday it will air the first 10 minutes of horror film "Dawn of the Dead" on TV before the movie hits theaters.
USA said it would air the uncut clip on March 15 between 10 p.m. and 10:30 p.m., ahead of the film's March 19 opening. Both USA and the film's distributor, Universal Pictures, are units of Vivendi Universal Entertainment.
The R-rated movie, which tells the story of a group of plague survivors defending themselves from a zombie onslaught, features graphic violence and gore. The network will air the clip toward the tail end of its broadcast of "Final Destination," a 2000 film about teens who try to cheat death.
