I heard there was an alternate ending in 28 Days Later, but I didn't see it.

The one I saw had US planes flying over England and implied that help was on the way.

Do you know what the other ending was?

uhm when the president or whoever said that hell was full, I don’t think that was an explanation, just him being hopeless. I think this mainly because when the black guy that was a father died, because they shot him for going crazy, he didn’t turn into a zombie. This further proves what the nurse said, that it’s the bites that cause the people to turn. Plus the infected people don’t act like any zombie I’ve ever heard of.

I know that I'm quoting myself here, but I want to add something. Like I said above, the only time I heard that hell was full and this was causing all the dead people to rise. Was when the president or whoever said it on TV. Like I said, I don't think he was explaining the whole thing. I just think he was losing hope, when he said that. I mean how does the president know whats going on in hell? That's what I'd like to know.

Since that's the only thing that suggested this was caused by hell, i think it was a virus. Also the black father never turned into a zombie and the black father was never bitten. He never got the virus.

Ok I guess a question from me to you, where did this "virus" or infection or bacteria or whatever come from?

The concept of "the Bite" came at a point in time when America had quite a Rabies scare. At the same time, Stephen King conceived Cujo, while David Cronenberg came up with Rabid, and a couple of other equally nasty ideas. In the original screenplay for the first movie, Night of The Living Dead, the source is explained as a strange meteor that comes out of nowhere and passes close to earth. This was 10 years earlier, when "It Came From Outer Space" -films was the big thing.

Dawn of the Dead has been analyzed to death, being one of the few horror films in history that the critics didn't blow out of the water. It's Romero's warning statement of the approaching age of the yuppies: Mindless zombies banging their heads against the windows of the shopping mall, consumed by a hunger they don't understand, still clinging to some flashbacks of their former lives. Funny that they should remake the movie at a point in time when the yuppies are on the rise again.

I believe this sums DotD up quite nicely, and I wholeheartedly agree with him on his nomination for "Best Actor in a Supporting Role"
