Um, guys... Allow me to take us back to Night of the Living Dead for a few. I so have to disagree with your "lack of atmosphere" statement, and yes this is based purely on personal opinion.

First, for much of the movie there isn't a lot of musical score, there's wind. When there is musical score, it's garish, blaring over the top. The whole movie presents the feeling of claustrophobia- It's the living who are intombed, not the dead. Now remember the zombie march, the sound of feet on grass, with the occasional grown.

Dawn is a horror movie with all the bells ans whistles. It's good but you'll never convince me that Night wasn't the masterpiece.
