That line starts the following:

file "named.ca";
};
There's nothing wrong with the `zone "." ...' part; the error message
means that you left a semicolon off the end of whatever configuration
element is immediately before that in the named.conf file.
Right you are.
};
zone "." IN {
The semicolon after the first bracket was missing. I'm back to this:
[root@viewridgeproductions2 etc]# service named restart
Stopping named: [FAILED]
Starting named: [ OK ]
Can't stop, but start is ok... any ideas?
Test rndc again:
# rndc status
If it doesn't work, check the output of:
# netstat -lp
There should be an entry like:
tcp 0 0 localhost:rndc *:* LISTEN 1835/named
If there isn't, the named isn't listening for control connections and
the error is in your named.conf
