Editor - Dody Dorn ACE, Assistant Editor - Carlos Castillón Army of the Dead editor Dody Dorn ACE and asst editor Carlos Castillón were quite busy during the past year or so.  Not only did they edit the new film from Zack Snyder, but they also did his cut of Justice League during their "break". With Army of the Dead, Snyder is back doing what he does best, blending different genres into something not seen before.  It's a "zombie" movie; in some ways a follow up to Snyder’s Dawn of the Dead.  Then you’ve got the heist movie genre, in that the protagonists are racing against a clock to steal a big pile of cash. Finally you’ve got Las Vegas, which isn’t a genre of movie…but it’s Vegas; always a category unto itself.   No matter how you categorize it, Army of the Dead delivers the requisite action, comedy, gore and moments of tenderness one would hope for in a zombie-Vegas apocalypse. DODY DORN ACE Although she began her career as a sound editor, Dody Dorn made her transition to picture editing with projects such as the director's cut for Terminator 2.  From there she would go on to edit such notable films as Christopher Nolan's Memento, Fury and Zack Snyder's Justice League. CARLOS CASTILLÓN Carlos Castillón has been immersed in the world of big VFX super hero movies for quite some time.  He started his editorial journey assisting on films such as Iron Man 2, Cowboys and Aliens, Man of Steel and Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice.  Without questions it is this extensive background that also enabled him to be the lynchpin between the two cuts of Justice League.
