Good zombie movies?
Ive already seen 28Days/Weeks Later, Shaun of the Dead, Dawn of the Dead (2007), downloading the older one, and Planet Terror. Anyone else have any suggestions?
I tend to like zombie movies based in America more, because when they are based in the UK or something like that, the survivors fight them off with bats and axes. When they are in America everyone has a gun. lol
But I still like the ones based outside the US.

Night of the Living Dead, Diary of the Dead, I am Legend (maybe not zombies but good).
If you are looking for a laugh, Flight of the Living Dead, Day of the Dead (remake), Undead. So god awful. Don't even fit into the "so bad it's good"category.
I watched REC the other day.
Pretty interesting take on the zombie theme, which is great in a very narrow genre notorious for it's cliched repetitiveness.
For the lighter Zombie flicks, check out Dance of the Dead and Shaun of the Dead.
Edit: And Dead and Breakfast. Fucking love that flick.

It's not a bad movie but it's not great, either. And there's some debate as to whether to movie counts as zombies, because the book decidedly doesn't.
I think they're actually vampires. You know the whole sunlight thing.
Fido was pretty good, more of a comedy zombie movie though.
Night of the Living Dead is nice.
Also, it's not really a traditional zombie movie, but Idle Hands.
According to the book:
book
In the movie, though, these are largely downplayed to make them more like sunlight-fearing zombies.
Oh well then that changes my whole view on life.
Talking about I Am Legend, the theater release of it had a horrible ending. You can easily find the real ending they included in the DVD.
I don't know. It was nice to see the main character die for once. You don't get that too often.

Zombie movies typically blow.
You've made a powerful enemy here today...
Certainly you can't mean yourself?
If you listen very quietly you can hear a part of my soul dying....
Lol we both know you don't have a soulIf you listen very quietly you can hear a part of my soul dying....
Is your SN a zombie reference?
It's true. If only I had learned to play the fiddle faster then Satan. Sigh.
Ha ha, yeah it is. I figured if we get the zombies of the brain devouring verity I'd be safe.

Zombie Strippers.
Have you not seen the resident evil movies? Watch all 3 of them and then the cgi one if you haven't.
Anyone mention Dead Alive yet?
Also, Re-Animator?

He asked for good ones.
Even if you take away the fact that it does no justice to the Resident Evil games, they aren't very good zombie movies. The first was probably the only one that was worth watching. Then they got stupid.
However, the CGI one is decent and it is part of the video game story arc which is really cool.
I downloaded Dead Alive.
And Im thinking about getting Re-animator.
I just ordered the Re-animator 2-disc set from Amazon for $8. I've been wanting to watch it for awhile but never have. Dead Alive is somewhere around here on both DVD and VHS.
I dunno I never played the games really but I liked the movies. They were fun to watch at least.
Seconded. I mean,who sits down to watch a Zombie movie and expect a grand theatrical experience? I mean, you sit there, watch people run around and kill/be killed by Undead and enjoy it. Right?
Haha that's what I thought people did.
Depends on what you want from the movie. Resident Evil is supposed to be a franchise based on scares, not mindless action. Romero's zombie films are social commentary. Zak Snyder's DotD was an action film, as was the DayotD remake.
That's what I find odd about zombie movies. Given the right circumstances, they can literally be any genre. I mean, when I think "Zombie" I don't think "Zombie-genre", I think of the undead more as a theme than anything else.

Diary of the Dead isnt too bad, right at the start they confirm something that most "zombie movies" get wrong. Zombies are decomposing corpses, therefore they cannot run!
Not the best acting or script, but at least the zombies are half believe-able.
I am not sure how I feel about Zombie movies that try and make some vague human condition truth appear at the end. Like in Diary of the Dead, when she asks if humans deserve to survive and it shows those rednecks begin all twisted.
See The Deader the Better:
Made by an amateur filmmaker (anyone ever see the angry video game nerd? yeah, him). That thing still kicks some serious ass, though it's only about 17 minutes long so perhaps not considered a movie, but I definitely think you should check it out.
