Which Zombie movie?

[blue_demon]

Hi,

I just got back into zombie movies after watching [Rec].

Recommend some more films for me please!!!

But the catch is I wanna see tons of Zombies....Not like 28 days...I mean tons of staggering walking corpses, unholy living dead...Ripped up like shredded-wheat.

(Forget the Romero trilogy, the 28 days series, Shaun of the dead, Zombie Flesh Eaters - see them all recently.)

so post away and I'll visit 'play'.

Thanks.

try DEAD ALIVE!

[hacelikewhoa]

ZOMBIE
Day of the Dead
Dead Alive

[blue_demon]

Zombie? Meaning Zombi 2/Zombie flesh Eaters?

Dead Alive? Is that also known as Braindead? DA being the US title and BD being UK/Aussie?

Both of your guesses are correct. Also, you might want to check out Return of The Living Dead and Re-Animator.

[Elvis_Christ]

Make sure you pick up Braindead not Dead Alive. Dead Alive is a cut version of the film.
I back the recs of Return Of The Living Dead and Re-Animator... fuckin' genius film making.

Not really sure what to recommend seeing as you've done the whole Romero/Fulci thing.

I've had a copy of JUNK sitting here for awhile that I haven't watched, heatd good things about it. I'm pretty fond of The Video Dead and Hell Of The Living Dead (aka Night Of The Zombies).

To add to what others have said, you should check into these gems...

Bio zombie
Dellamorte Dellamore "cemetary man"

A classic too - Army of darkness

[Elvis_Christ]

Cemetary Man is some crazy shit for sure! Great film.

[_____V_____]

Undead
Fido
Night of the Creeps
The Beyond
Dead Heat
The Dead Next Door
Flight of the Living Dead


Make it a point to check out the Tombs Of The Blind Dead series. All flicks kick some serious entertainment butt.

[The Photographer]

Plague of the Zombies
Let Sleeping Corpses Lie
Grapes of Death
Dead Pit
Nightmare City
Children Shouldnt Play With Dead Things

[blue_demon]

Some I havent heard of...

See I've seen all the obvious classic, Re-animator...Romeros stuff, Return of the living dead, Zombie holocaust...

Trying to find some others...

But thanks guys I got a list going there and now to 'find' them.

[Eat Horror]

Not as good as the classics or some of the zombie flicks suggested so far but some fairly decent zombie flicks I saw recently -

Dance of the Dead
Flight of the Living Dead

Definitely check out Cemetery Man and Rec if you haven't already.

Watched this one a while back....low budget ...starts a bit slow...but once it takes off its pretty sick.

BONE SICKNESS

If you like gore....this one has it


if you're looking for plot......don't bother

[Roderick Usher]

Dance of the Dead is pretty entertaining for a zom-com

Even though you said you'd seen the romero stuff, there may be some things you didn't know in the series of films following Night of the Living Dead. I can see you don't know too much (not a criticism, many don't), about the series as you credited as the Romero Trilogy, when actually Romero has been responsible for Five films in that line.


Night of the living dead.

That then branched into two lines of sequels. This is because Russo, who wrote the book and aided the script, and Romero who directed the film split ways. Russo kept the rights to having "living dead" in the title, while Romero could make any others of his own. As there are so many odd things I'll make a key.

Red = George A Romero Line
Blue = Russo Line
Purple = Unofficial Sequel/ Prequel.

The George A Romero sequel line -

Dawn of the Dead

There were then two sequels to this, one official, one not. The unofficial ones being

Zombi 2 which was followed by three more sequels, in that line.

Zombi 3

Zombie 4

Zombi 5

But back to the Romero line-

Day of the Dead (Official Sequel to Dawn of the Dead).

This was followed by two seperate films, one an official sequel, one an unofficial prequel. The Unofficial Prequel was -

Day of the Dead 2: Contagium

And once again, back to the Romero line with the official sequel.

Land of the Dead

Diary of the Dead (Described as a "Re-establising" of the series. It alters the myth slightly, bringing the undead rising into modern times. But don't confuse it as a remake.

Russo+ Series. This series altered things a bit, making the zombies slightly more intelligent, having them occasionally speak, they can run, and instead of hungering for meat in general, they want BRAINS! Russo made the first sequel, then others did the rest.

Return of the Living Dead

Return of the Living Dead Part 2

Return of the Living Dead 3

Return of the Living Dead: Necropolis

Return of the Living Dead: Rave from the Grave


There are a few duds in there, a few have been remade etc. I'd say try 'em all if you get the chance. I've yet to see quite a few in there, I just know of them. Now that I've written it down, it's a pretty complicated line, with a starting film, two lines of sequels branching from that, and then another branch of sequels coming from one of the other branches.

Lucio Fulci's ZOMBIE

Yes, I did know that seen, most of those...

Not seen Day of the Dead 2: Contagium

[Elvis_Christ]

Not seen Day of the Dead 2: Contagium

Do yourself a favor and keep it that way. That flick is total shit! Made by the idiots who brought you Creepshow III :D

[ferretchucker]

Yes, it does seem terrible. I'd watch it just so I can say I've seen it.

[chaibill]

Are all the romero's worth a buy? I have "night" and "dawn". Will there be new editions of "day" and "land" or "diary" out?

Not sure about new editions but those flicks are all worth owning. Land is the worst of the bunch IMO but it still has its moments.

[chaibill]

Oh i want to get LAND just for the cameos but i must be fun I think i saw the end on cable once.

[RotOn]

All I can add is DONT watch Redneck Zombies. I am a Zombie movie freak!! But that movie I have tried to watch on 3 occasions and fell asleep all 3 times. :mad:

[Despare]

Not sure about new editions but those flicks are all worth owning. Land is the worst of the bunch IMO but it still has its moments.

Right on, even though it's the weakest in the series this has to be the strongest zombie series ever and the movies are constantly better than almost all zombie movies of their generation.


You MIGHT want to check out the Blind Dead series, start with Tombs of the Blind Dead and continue if you enjoy it.

[Zombi3]

You might enjoy Hell of the Living Dead or Nightmare City.:)

[blue_demon]

Anyone seen the zombie movie withe the band antiseen?
