Love your channel and your Dawn of the Dead video. Really good job. How can I get a "Say good night Creep" refrigerator magnet. Are those for sale on the internet? Would love to get one of those. Thsnks for posting it. Have a great day everyone.

As usual i was teary eyed watching this then and now location from the movie Dawn of the by George A. Romero. Here in the Philippines the film was shown in 1979. I had sleepless nights upon watching it. I was 19 years old wayback. Now i'm turning 63. Thanks for this video. It made me younger again.❤❤❤

I watched another film location of this exact movie and it wasn't even close to the number of different shots as you have here. Well done.

@@pfmdude Ah nice. I just checked yours out. Not bad considering you're mostly a music guy. You got a nice voice to go with the vid though. Very clear.

I am completely blown away right now. This is the most awesome filming location video I have ever seen. As a lifelong fan of Dawn of the Dead (1978) and George Romero’s dead films, this was such an exciting and entertaining experience. The level of details and effort that you put into finding the exact shot locations is astonishing and it makes the experience even more thrilling. And seeing the Living Dead Museum was truly incredible as well. I’m from Hawaii and most likely will never get to visit the Monroeville Mall in PA so I thank you from the bottom of my heart for making this video for the fans. And I know you’re a true fan too so it’s like getting to see these locations with a buddy. Thanks again Tampa Jay!

Thank you buddy I truly appreciate it. I spent most of the weekend inside of that mall. It is such a classic film! I love your handle there, Packanack. That’s definitely a Friday the 13th part two reference. I was just standing on that same property where the lodge used to sit, as I was tracking down those filming locations.

Perfectly executed!!! No goofy voices, dumb jokes or babbling. Not to mention an interview with a zombie! Thanks a million from Boston!!!

Absolutely fantastic! Best dawn of the dead filming locations video ever! Thanks for the leg work!

I watch this movie every single Halloween since I was a little kid such a masterpiece of a film your reenactment is always spot on brotha keep up the awesome content and God Bless 🙂😎

Your location movies are the most wholesome videos out there, I love your energy and your excitement is contagious

Hey, Jay- welcome to my old neighborhood! I love Pittsburgh and the sounding area. I lived one turnpike exit away for 25 years and shopped at the Monroeville Mall and visited while they were filming this movie! RIP George- you made Pittsburgh proud! Jay,!I bet you’ll be driving by my former house 🏠 n your way to Evans City and “the” cemetery! Welcome to the “ Burgh”!

WOW!!!! i am a DOTD Fan since more then 40 Years, and thats the first time a realy can imagine the Monroeville Mall! Living in Switzerland.. this is my bigest dream to come 1 time to this amazing place! Thank you for the review

Great job, Tampa Jay, lining up all of those shots! That's pretty cool that they made a museum as well.

Great video, Jay! Thanks! 👍🏻👍🏻

I've seen a few videos detailing the locations and this by far is the most detailed. I love stuff like this. I'd love to visit the mall one day and if I go I'll use this as a guide.

As I am writing this, I am in Monroeville after traveling six hours from NJ in order to see the Monroeville Mall (I had lunch in the foodcourt/ice rink today). Tomorrow it's off to Evans City to go to the cemetery. Thank you posting the name of the airfield. I asked around and found it down that old abandoned road. Your video is excellent.

Another great video Tampa Jay.

The time has come to see the movie again, last time was before a long time. Thx that I remeber to see it in the next days ! Great Movie and a great Trip, thx Jay :-)

My uncle worked there in the early 80s lol he even was on set when this was being filmed....this is my favorite movie....in 2014 i met George A Romero....great job filming this!!

I love this film so much. Excellent tour, thank you!

Great Job as usual Jay. I love your comparison shots of then and now which really help identify each filming location. I have enjoyed all of your filming location videos, but this one is one of my favorites, I also love Pittsburgh too, so much movie history along with being a great sports town.

As a big fan of Dawn of the Dead, I want to thank you for putting your time and energy in making this video. I like how you made the photo comparisons from your smartphone and especially liked the living dead museum/store.

Wow!! This was so much fun. Thank you for doing this. The museum was amazing.

I love love love your location videos and they are always done with such detail and care. Amazing work

Thank you so much for making such a well researched and in depth look at the filming locations. I just finished watching Dawn for the umpteenth time and I wondered what Monroeville looked like today.

It’s cool that some 70’s remnants are still there!

Great video really enjoyed it thanks for taking the time to do.

I don't know why I hadn't written more..this is THE very best location scout video on the net of dawn..another couple of guys did a great one but it's not as clear as this one. There's no then and now like this one..this is just a fan dream..for me I'll never get to come there in my lifetime so without this I just would never realise a look at this place...so thankyou so much for a great video..brilliant.

Wow, another awesome video, I live in the western suburbs of Pittsburgh and I'm told some of the movie was filmed out here too. Keep up the great work on these, so much info.

HEY, TAMPA JAY What's going on... Well all I can say is Wow !! what an awesome job doing This video I'm so glad You chosen to do such A cool old School horror movie such as this (1978) when they Really mead them Realistic looking ( Ha Ha) OK well jay just wanted to say Thank's for taking time out to do this vlog so take care stay safe and keep the great videos coming

I am currently watching this video on my tv, absolutely love this video it’s the most accurate and up to date video and I love it, thank you for doing this it means a lot to me, I hope to go there one day but it’s a long way from england, I know this film word for word and now my children are watching it with me, once again thank you for this brilliant video I am jealous.

Good detective work on this video TJ. Thanks for another great video

This was so awesome! Well-done. I can tell it was a lot of work!

Hi,many thanks for your presentation. It so great to see that.I live in Austria (middle of Europe) You can imagine it is to hard to go on location. I am a great fan of DOTD or other Romero movies. In the year 1981, I was 15 and saw it at the first time. However, in German the move called ZOMBIE and the italien movie „Zombi“ is the name in German - Woodoo , Schreckensinsel der Zombies. I have a lot of different version of DODT. But I believe you have also different versions. Greeting from Austria (Österreich)

That's amazing to watch...and it really hasn't changed that much from what you've shown from then until now..and think that was 44yrs ago when that was made brilliant film.

Very cool, Love to see these locals, and what alot of work you put into this! Well done!

Excellent! Thanks for sharing!

Great work on this. I love these kinds of flash back/forward vids. I grew up watching DOD on Betamax.

This is an awesome video I liked all the shots and details and the interview with the actor and museum is fantastic I wish I could go see it I am in CA to far for me to go.

That museum is just fantastic. Long may it remain open. Please visit.. Wish I could. I'm unfortunate to live in England.

Excellent Vid Jay! I know it's exciting finding the 'match-up' spots...

Super Awesome, brother! Love your excitement and happiness! I totally am the same way! Thank you for all of your hard work! 🥳🤘

Very cool. I was in Pittsburgh 2 years ago and had wanted to check this mall out. Glad to see the museum is in the mall again. It was off site for a few years. Thanks for doing this video. Nice work. :)

This was awesome. Thank you. I saw one of these done back when Penneys was still there, but not as detailed with the current and movie shots correlated. One day, I'm visiting this mall with the Goblin soundtrack blaring as I check it out

Went there last month for the first time it was nothing short of awesome, thanks for making this guide. Big thumbs up. Subscribed!

I grew up in murrysville, i was 6 when that mall opened and have tons of memories of hangin out there. Two girls from my neighborhood where used as extras in the movie, all you had to do was show up in your own make-up and costume. If you looked dead they chose you for a couple of shots, mostly the exterior scenes. Really cool seeing it in the screen shots. I still have pictures taken in that photo booth in 1980, and can remember how weird it was using those bathrooms after we all saw the movie....creepy hallway. Great video and since i live near tampa now let me say ... Go Rays...and Lightning

This was great. Very thorough. The shot matching was awesome.

I remember going there in the 00's. Ended up picking up a mall directory and brought it to a convention to get signatures. I remember the staffer at Ken Foree's table got really excited and said "sign the JC Penny's!" :D Sadly the older zombie museum had closed/moved and there wasn't really anything zombie themed there at the time. I think I'm going to try to make a trip back this summer.

Love your filming location videos! You do a very thorough job.

I work at the hotel in the mall complex and go to Monroeville Mall all the time. I knew SOME of the locations, but I had no idea of how many mall locations there were in the movie. Great video! Monroeville Mall and the skating rink were also mentioned in Steven King's novel "Christine" (but not in the movie).

Thanks TJ! AWESOME journey back in time! I love, love, LOVE then & now movie locations!! Especially with your spin on things! I'm just over by Winchester (Indiana), coming my way this trip? If u do, I got friends in low places, I can take you for a few laps around the track! Check out the SRX RACE nxt wknd at Eldora Speedway. I'm gonna try n go! Not sure tho, Im going thru a battery of tests as my Doc suspects I may have M.S.! Im growing weaker by the day. I dont get out much by myself much cause of not walking well & poor balance! Im trynna do as much as I can, I dont want ANY regrets if I end up in a chair! Stay safe! God🙏Bless & maybe see u soon? Brian ✌️😊

Wow! This is by far the most comprehensive video out there on the topic of Monroeville Mall filming locations in DOTD. As a side note… little piece of history… when I worked for JCPenney in the early 2000s, we would have our regional meetings here at the original location in the center of the mall. I remember wanting to slide down the center of the escalators like Roger did. But they had installed these little nubs all along the descent to keep people like me from doing just that. Also, I remember talking to an old mall guard who had worked there back in the 70s during the filming of DOTD. I asked him about the skating rink (which is now the food court), and he told me that the original machinery that used to keep the ice from melting is still under the floor of the food court. When the machinery broke back in the 80s, and it became too expensive to repair, the mall opted to put a food court in over top of it without removing the original mechanics.

Always a great job Jay. Keep being awesome dude😊

You put a lot of work into this one. Good job!👍💕😊

Awesome man great job

Almost earie seeing how grown-over the old locations are with trees etc, the fences now thrown up around the old airport and the loss of the boat-station building structures. Good to see the Mall and Boiler power-station still going strong though. Great little piece of motion picture heritage. I can actually recall someone posting on a George E. Romero zombie fictional story site about that airport you visited back in the late 1990s and I think even then the pumps were gone but the fence wasn't yet installed, as he'd gone gone inside the property to take exterior pictures of the office building.

Brilliant walkthrough and commentary- keep up the good work from 🇬🇧

Thank you so much ! Appreciate you watching. One of the best weekends I ever had.

I loved the ice skating rink. This iui s an awesome visit to the mall

My best friend and I are huge fans of Dawn of the Dead and back in 2005 we made a trip to Monroeville Mall, JCP was still there and we road down the famous escalator that Roger slid down and we took several rides up and down the elevator, I had no idea and can't believe that JCP is gone and they gutted the store out to make a hallway and a cinema, this really makes me sad, glad I have photos and the memories.

Tampa Jay - Thanks a bunch for this video! I was in Pittsburgh this weekend and ventured over to Monroeville to check out the mall. Your video really helped me nail down some points of interest that would have been tough to find on my own. I visited the Living Dead Museum; for $8, not bad at all. The guy working there (no more than 30 yrs old) knew a ton about the movie; in particular, he pointed out the location of the bank in the movie...now a tax prep service of some sort. However, along with so many other indoor shopping centers across America, Monroeville Mall has seen its best days and I doubt it will be open five years from now. Several stores are closed/vacant and it looked like more people went there for their daily walking exercise than for shopping.

I'm a native of Monroeville and you're correct; the mall is going downhill. It's still well maintained, but the vacancies are up, and the number of shoppers is down. Back in the 70's and 80's, you had to park on the outskirts of the lot to get a space. Today, you can practically park in the first few rows of spaces most of the way around the mall.

OMG DUDE!!! Your video is one of the best match ups I’ve seen! Well done!

Dawn Of The Dead is the gift that keeps on giving even after forty eight years because i only ever watched the original until i got the four disk black box set and once i got that i only ever watched the extended version until recently when one night i clicked on the Argento cut on Prime. It felt like i was watching a completely new movie especially because of how the soundtrack is used. One day I’m hoping i can get into the United States (been a bad boy in my past) and if i do I’m literally heading to Monroeville first then on to Lolita in California for the Halloween 3 locations and up through to Canada to Hope for everything First Blood

Awesome video Jay! This is my favorite zombie movie of all time. I knew I could outrun these zombies not the super sprinting zombies I of later movies....lol
