The zombie movie where they are in a mall is primarily "Dawn of the Dead." There are two major versions:
- The original 1978 film directed by George A. Romero, where survivors of a zombie epidemic take refuge in a shopping mall and try to defend it from zombies and other threats.
- The 2004 remake directed by Zack Snyder, where survivors also holed up in a suburban shopping mall to escape the zombie apocalypse.
Both films focus heavily on the mall as a central location for survival and conflict during a zombie outbreak, making "Dawn of the Dead" the most iconic zombie movie set in a mall.
