The scene where a female zombie is devouring human flesh and groaning as if she's loving every moment I find very chilling. Just imagine being a zombie and eating your own children still with a fragment of awareness of what you're doing, but incapable of stopping
No, The films creators picked this music to mock conspicuous consumption and other wastes of life that the zombies are damned to go through the motions of even after death.
This is probably my favorite end credits to a movie ever. I love how the happy old timey tune added to the horror and creepiness of the scene. Romero’s set the standard for how zombies behave, move about and the things that make them terrifying.
It suppose to be a funny comparison to humans who would be wandering mindless around the mall the same way the zombies are. I mean the Zombies are using escalators for god sake. It's half a joke and half an example of juxtaposition
The first time I watched this film was via a 2nd hand VHS tape. The day after I kept thinking of this scene from the film when I went to the local shopping centre.
How can I not laugh about the Zombie Apocalypse with this tune that makes it sounds like I'm at the circus? Same thing with the Dixieland tune during the "Evil Dead" credits
8 years later you just saved me from pulling any more hair out trying to remember where I’ve heard this from- took me a lot of research just to find this vid and finally found this comment in hopes someone somewhere would bring up wherever I heard it . Ugh thank you
It probably is a tie between this and day of the dead as still probably the best Zombie movies ever made...for different reasons, in one case its the sheer cleverness and satire...on the other its the sheer insane no-holds barred characters, action and amazing effects! But both done by the master George Romero! I always wish he had of had the chance to get involved in more successful projects beyond the realm of zombies...as he had a unique sort of eye and take on the world that I think could have easily done interesting action films a la Paul Verhoeven...if he would have had the budget...but I don't think we will see George R's like again for a while.
Wut? THIS song was an end-credits song for a ZOMBIE movie. Correction, THE zombie movie. THIS song. Well, that explains why it was in so many goofy Left 4 Dead Gary's Mod and SFM videos back in the day.
+Liam Funnyman The music is intended to be circus-esque. My understanding of it is that it sort of summarizes the entire movie: It turns the apocalypse into a circus. The semi-spoof of this movie, Shaun of the Dead, follows a similar theme, but with the horror themes replaced with comedy.
A horde of the undead, trapped in a perpetual state of motion in a consumerist paradise, unable to do anything except roam the halls endlessly moaning in despair. How does it not fit?
why in blue hell did romero choose this as the end credits title? its polka, its goofy and its not appropriate horror movie theme music. perhaps he lost a bet or something? props to the robot chicken crew for using as theirs! it fits and is fitting with the obscure references
it was suppose to reflect the monotony of consumerism and the fact the the zombies went around the mall like any everyday shopper would. tl;dr it was suppose to by used as a parody of rabid consumerism
The zombies growling in the background while this happy music plays disturbs me the most
For sure, it's super creepy. The whole sequence feels like a fever dream.
They're noisier then they were during most of the film.
@@ganados0 My theory is because it represents how much they truly outnumber humans by the end.

Soundtrack Dissonance
This really ought to be blaring from every store loudspeaker on a continuous loop during Black Friday.
a long ass time ago, it was...
😂😂😂👍
Its true when Its Black Friday Or when there s a Sale Play The Gonk Music Forever !
Whoever is in charge of the Monroeville mall (THE Mall from "Dawn of the Dead") needs to do this.
Underrated comment

GEORGE A. ROMERO (1940 - 2017)
zombies dont run !
Stay Scared!
When there no room in hell...
The ending stroke of the bell tower gives me goosebumps every time.
It's grim as hell!!!
Same here
It gives the feeling that these are the last moments of the human race. We're done for. This is the end
Same
That is the iconic Big Ben
No,
The films creators picked this music to mock conspicuous consumption and other wastes of life that the zombies are damned to go through the motions of even after death.
No, it’s bc it’s a funny song. It’s a dark comedy film
@@AggressiveSpaghetti and that's the satirical joke..
Everything we do in life is pointless. Life itself is meaningless
Samuel Black life’s what you make of it, you’ve got to live life to the fullest in the time you have.
In honor of George A. Romero, who passed away from lung cancer at 77.
GamerZero he probably became a zombie right about now.
RIP
He died too young

The Gonk= The absurdity of the human condition?
We're all just hairless monkeys with shopping bags
the xylophone kills me lmao.

Ammo here.
Reloading!!!
GRENADES HERE!!!
Hey guys, I got something to say... I hate helicopters !!
That god damned bell tower ringing at the end. Creepy.
Is no one going to mention how this song would be used in Shaun Of The dead
This is the "Situation normal, all fucked up" prime moment...
Louis meets Louis and Louis and Louis
Inigo Reyes Louis, UH UH UHHHAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH *boom*

Imagine this music in the ending of doom🔫
It will be awesome for doom
If I ever hear this song playing in a mall I'm gonna gtfo fast as possible
Same lol especially when the bull plays
such a dark ending, honestly
My thoughts exactly, this shit was demented as all hell.
Something about this is just disturbing everyone died except 2 and they both were sad
its funny how a happy song can make zombies less scarier
I think the happy music adds to the creepiness of the ending credits.
Cheerful music for a dark ending credits
Very funny music. Makes the zombies seem harmless.
Like this end theme. Catchy with an element of amusement.
This shit is so good I still get it stuck in my head ten years later I love this movie so much
This has become the unofficial zombie walk theme. (creepy in the context of the film)
The first time I watched this film was via a 2nd hand VHS tape. The day after I kept thinking of this scene from the film when I went to the local shopping centre.
I really wish everyone survived, it would've been neat to have gotten a sequel that continued what happened after they escape the mall.
The idea is that humanity are finished
They were doomed from the start
So...THAT's what "mall walking" looks like.
Mall walks, zombie walks, its all the same.
BAWK BAWK BAWK BAWK BAWK BAWK bawkabawka bawkabawka bawka BAWK!!
Bawkook!

The first episode i saw of Robot Chicken, i IMMEDIATELY remembered this as a kid because i loved this strange ass song as the movie ended, lol
this just makes it creepier O.o
How can I not laugh about the Zombie Apocalypse with this tune that makes it sounds like I'm at the circus?
Same thing with the Dixieland tune during the "Evil Dead" credits
Oh, splendid! I go to bed now.
robot chicken ending theme......
8 years later you just saved me from pulling any more hair out trying to remember where I’ve heard this from- took me a lot of research just to find this vid and finally found this comment in hopes someone somewhere would bring up wherever I heard it . Ugh thank you
So does anyone here watch robot chicken

Which team in particular are you talking about, the only time I remember him breaking this out was his 50 years of failure in Toronto
@@RUSTYCHEVYTRUCK idk I though he must just use this alot
@@Penncentral-vr6mg you’d think
"Its Alive"
Wut? THIS song was an end-credits song for a ZOMBIE movie. Correction, THE zombie movie. THIS song. Well, that explains why it was in so many goofy Left 4 Dead Gary's Mod and SFM videos back in the day.
I think it was stock music so everyone used it bc it has no copyright, plus I heard it was in the l4d game files but that may just be a rumor
The zombies are probably growling because they're mad because they didn't get to eat Peter and Fran
Made Roger & Stephen zombies though.
They are zombies, that's their natural sound.
Very earie feel to it love it
The end credits to 2020.
Some places are more evil than others....

Why is the robot chicken song on here
down
HOW IN THE WORLD does this music fit?
Or is that the point, that it doesn't?

INVICTUS Oh.
A horde of the undead, trapped in a perpetual state of motion in a consumerist paradise, unable to do anything except roam the halls endlessly moaning in despair.
How does it not fit?
It's not supposed to fit, that's what makes it creepy.
lol
Louis!?
why in blue hell did romero choose this as the end credits title? its polka, its goofy and its not appropriate horror movie theme music. perhaps he lost a bet or something? props to the robot chicken crew for using as theirs! it fits and is fitting with the obscure references
I think the whole idea is like making a circus out of the apocalypse.
it was suppose to reflect the monotony of consumerism and the fact the the zombies went around the mall like any everyday shopper would.
tl;dr it was suppose to by used as a parody of rabid consumerism
The music combined with the sound of the zombies moaning is really disturbing and funny at the same time, much like the film itself.
Do a search for "soundtrack dissonance" and you'll have your answer.
