Night of the Living Dead is my pick. To me, it is the scariest of the three and it also has the best ending (the ending packed a punch). I love all three as well. Though I don't believe Day of the Dead is nearly as good as the other two.

Dawn for me. It had everything in it you could want (except naked chics).

Zombies, guts an' blood, bikes, the wonderful Mall Music (hah!)

And when I saw it the first time at its release, I had dream after dream and getting control over a mall...all to my self...Damn, that'd be cool as hell!:D

It's a real tough descision for me....I found Dawn way less enjoyable than the other 2 however. But between ight and Day....hard choice. Definatly 2 of the greatest horror films of all time.

Agreed. I would have enjoyed watching Malachai die in Children of the Corn. Or visit an orthodontist, one of the two.

Joe Pilato did an amazing job in Day....so friggin gratifying watching him get killed. Great performance, hated that character.

Personally, I can't pick one out that I like more than the others. They all did different things for me.

"Night" scared the bejeepers out of me, still does. It's creepy as hell. The stuff of nightmares.

"Dawn" was a lot of fun, except for some depressing moments. It's got to be one of the craziest movies ever made.

"Day" was unbelievably savage and gruesome, and it was nice to see Savini and his crew do the zombies up nice. A lotta rubber getting ripped up there.

They all good!

They all kick ass on a tremendous level. Night is the groundbreaking zombie film. It made you feel tension and the night. Also you felt part of the movie.

You can grow a strong friendship with the characters in Dawn and watch them struggle against the tremendous odds. Still the helicoptor scene is one of my favorites.

But Day of the Dead annihilates them all. Bub is awesome, plus you gotta love to hate Joe Pilato's character. Plus it has some Savinis best work and it almost made my mom want to throw up :p

i loved the two buddies in the film .. the unlikely pairing of the irish guy and black guy .... they made the movie for me ...

and i thought the music was even better than the goblin score from Dawn..

Dawn is a lot darker to me .. its a fantastic film .. but Day was more human somehow ...

I like them all for different reasons but my favorite is Day of The Dead for the simple fact that there is actuall interaction with a zombie- it reminds me of the scene in universals Bride Of Frankenstein when the monster visits the old man. It has that sense of apathy. And the zombie begins to shot.
The Night Of The Living Dead: because it is a classic horror and for the simple fact that is just fun to watch.
Dawn Of The Dead: the simple reason that it just good old gore the-zombies-fucking-rule horror tale from George Romero.

The trilogy is enjoyable and i can't wait for the release of the forth and final part: Land Of The Dead.

Night of the Living Dead was the first horror movie I ever saw, and on PBS no less! Due to that fact (and the fact that it is the most kick-ass movie I've ever seen) I've got to go with Night.

I'm not surprised to see Dawn winning though. These movies all kick ass, althoughm Day is my least favorite. It could have been so much more... :(

I like all the dead films, but I seem to always enjoy Dawn the most. I just saw a poster for Land Of The Dead so I'm excited. Opens four days before my birthday.

All three of 'em are awesome films and its really hard to choose between two great movies like Dawn of the Dead and Day of the Dead, but I gotta go with Day. I don't know whenever I watch it I seem to enjoy it more, it's a ton of fun with great gore and good acting and the opening scene always gives me the chills (the helicopter landing in the Florida city part, not the lame hands coming out of the wall). But Dawn is awesome too, it's so creepy and disturbing and the score is awesome, just like Day's.

But shit with Bub and Joe Pilato and the best zombie effects yet how can I not choose Day?
