i'd have to say that the best and my favorite zombie movies are:


Night of the Living Dead
Day of the Dead
Dawn of the Dead (Original)
Zombie (Italian, Lucio Fulci)
28 Days later (even though they aren't really zombies)
Dead Alive (Brain Dead)

oh yeah and of course Dawn of the Dead (Remake)

HappyCamper
04-09-2004, 07:28 AM
yeah 'Zombie 2' aka: Zombie

i saw the first tiime at the Florida Film Festival. it was awesome! a little slow compared to films like '28 Days Later' but still a great movie! SPOILER:

i loved the splintered wall - eyeball scene!

04-09-2004, 07:48 AM
Yup - Amazing Scene . That and the group of Zombies just feeding on the ( eye splintered ) woman ...tons of blood and flesh everywhere !!!

I have to mention "Nightmare City" (a/k/a "City of the Walking Dead."

The acting was bad and the zombies looked like they were made up with mud and corn flakes... but it was a fun flick. It moved along at a good pace.

04-12-2004, 05:48 AM
Again, in no order but all top class :

Versus (counts in my book, dead people fighting, great movie)
dawn, day, and night of the dead
Zombie flesh eaters
The Living Dead at the Manchester Morgue
City of the living dead (great drill scene)
The Beyond
Evil Dead 1+2
Junk
Return of the Living Dead 1 + 3
Dead Alive (Peter Jackson sillyness)
Dawn of the dead remake for the first 10 mins

04-12-2004, 06:04 AM
1. Night of the living dead
2. 28 days later
2. Resident evil

Versus is pretty sweet. I may never get tired of watching it.

I'd like to recommend a little gem of the zombie genre from Italy called Zeder. It's not a typical horror film and the zombies aren't Romero-esque, but it is a damn intriguing movie.

Great fucking lists everybody and I've seen The Evil Dead debated so much on if it's a zombie flick or not that I say it's your call on that one. Here's my top zombie flick:


1. Night of the Living Dead (68)
2. Night of the Creeps
3. Dawn of the Dead (78)
4. Day of the Dead
5. Dawn of the Dead (04)
6. Return of the Living Dead
7. Resident Evil
8. Zombi
9. Night of the Living Dead (90)
10. Return of the Living Dead 2

Yeah, resident evil is a cool movie. Not really scary though but has some pretty cool zombies in it. I find that Night of the Living Dead is pretty pathetic, it's not scary and low budget. Well I think that Dawn of the Dead the newer one is cool and kind of scary depends on which way you look at it.

you got to remember - night of the living dead is a "ground zero " movie ..by that i mean there was nothing out before to compare it too - it sparked a whole different style of horror film making that has been going for about 30 years now ( not bad at all ) ..in a way you can say that night gave birth to the "modern " monster movie . - of course now its a bit dated , but back in the day - this was a *&^% scarey and bloody movie with shades of the vietnam war ( which was going on at the time ) thrown in for good measure .

05-16-2004, 06:58 PM
Yeah I suppose you're right if you look at it that way. In my parents day The War of the Worlds was scary, I saw that movie and didn't see anything. It's the same with Friday the 13th. Old movies strike when they first come out depending on the person and so forth.

very true ...i remember talking to a guy in his late 60's and he told me . growing up - he was &*^ scared of the balck and white movies - wolfman and frankenstien ... even though they are classic movies - i think today. we would be hard pressed to call then horror movies - much less scarey ;)

NOTLD will always be my favorite horror movie because it was so groundbreaking and scared the hell out of people back then. First real gore, first black leading man in a horror, its was just so revolutionary. I love it

Versus is ok, but its pretty flawed in some ways I don't rate it quite as high as evryone else seems to! Wild Zero is also worth a look as its another crazy Japanese take on the Zombie Genre!!!

Also, for the NOTLD 68 talk, I was very young when I say it for the first time(11) and at the time it still had that grainy picture deal so it freaked the living hell out of me but it also got me hooked on horror movies for the first time ever. It turned me into a zombie loving horror movie freak that I am nowadays, lol. Actually, when I say it for the first time my young mind couldn't comprehend what was real and what wasen't so I thought NOTLD was fucking real. I bet there's thousands of different stories in why NOTLD has revolutionized the horror industry, this is just one of them.

Hey.
I dunno exactly what this is, but my supplier has a series of 6 dvds on their online list called "ginuea pig", the first one was called "the devils experiment" I think it's meant to be an asian film, but other than that I havent any idea what the fuck it's supposed to be about...

Anyone?

Okay, I don't get this.Resident Evil was about a man made virus and people consider it a zombie movie.In Return Of The Living Dead zombies are created by an army biological weapon-probably a type of virus(although they did rise from the ground).What makes 28 Days Later any different?I realize none of the zombies rose from the grave-but what the fuck else would you call it?Hell,the new DOTD didn't have anything come out of the ground-does that mean its not a zombie movie?

It ain't a zombie movie cause the "infected" are NOT DEAD.

They die like normal people.....and do NOT rise from the dead.

People didn't have to be dead to be infected in ROTLD or Resident Evil.

Yes and no. in ROTLD, the virus can bring people back from the dead as zombies...same with Resident Evil (some are dead first)

But the virus in 28 Days Later only affects the living..and it cannot bring the dead back to "life".....

I mean isn't the definition of "Zombie" the dead returning to life? At least in general terms?

Sistinas

Sorry,I just can't agree,I realize the 28DL infected were not traditional zombies,but I do consider it a semi-new spin on the living dead.

06-01-2004, 08:45 AM
Gotta go with carnage on this one. When Frank and Freddy [ in ROTLD ]opened the canister and the fumes overtook them,thats when they actually died. Then they came back [ which would account for the rigor mortus and blood pooling.] In 28 days nobody died, they were just infected. If they were killed, they stayed dead.

Exactly. I guess the classic definition of "zombie" is the "living dead". (ie Night of the Living Dead, Return of the Living Dead, etc)

If the person is not dead yet, then they quite literially cannot be the LIVING dead...they are just the living.

Side Note: Why didn't the infected attack other infected? Odd.

newb
06-01-2004, 09:33 AM
hmmmm...Very good question. You would think if these people were infected with the "Rage" then they wouldn't differentiate between normal folk and infected ones. They would lash out at anybody. Now I must go into a corner and ponder.

Well I guess it depends on what way you look at it. I'm looking at it from a horror fanatics point of view. I was looking for something that was scary not action and that is exactly what it was. It had hardly any relevence to the first two and that's waht annoyed me about it.

The second was really just a remake of the first with a larger budget!

... There's only one movie like it out there, and thats good not evry horror has to follow the same furmula, I agree its not that scary, but how many horror movies really are, unless your 10 years old hiding behind the couch!!!!!

Ni ghtmare creatures was fun, but incredibly shallow.

Mark my words, Halflife 2 will be greater than sliced bread. Even with butter.

Oh, Christ! Forget the goddamn Dawn Of The Dead remake! It's a rip off! Thanks to that, George Romero will probably never get to film his fourth dead film. He's got the script but he can't find backing. The remake is just another example of producers tell the fans to go to hell and doing what they want in order to get what they consider the "real" viewers.

I enjoyed all three Evil Deads. You ask me, Sam Raimi should hold off on Spider Man 3 and make Evil Dead 4 instead. If you go by Army Of Darkness' original ending, it could have Ash up against the Deadites in a Mad Max type world. Certainly couldn't be goofier then AOD.

I'd have to say that Army of Darkness is good, but for very different reasons than for the reasons that Evil Dead 1 & 2 are good. Evil Dead 1 & 2 kicked ass because it was frightening, and had plenty of gore. Army of Darkness was good cause it was meant to be funny. Raimi had wanted to make a third Evil Dead movie, plus if you've watched any of the behind the movie stuff on the DVD's you would know that Raimi is a huge fan of slap-stick comedy, especially of The Three Stooges which makes Army of Darkness's humor make sense. I will agree though that Evil Dead 1 & 2 are far better than Army of Darkness. Bruce Campbell did a kick ass job in all 3 films. If you remember he had some classic lines from the first two films as well. ie: We just chopped up our girlfriend with a chainsaw does that sound FINE!

actually i think i heard that if Raimi decides to make a fourth Evil Dead movie it's going to be a prequel to the original, but I could be wrong.

Soo many things on this thread to comment on...

There should not be an Evil Dead 4....leave the classic series where it is, a good series...don't ruin it with a knock-off sequel/pre-quel.

There is a "grey-area" difference between a horror movie, and a "dark comedy".......I think Evid Dead movies, along with Bubba Ho-tep, are more of dark comedies....your basic zombie movie is more horror....

Zombies need first to be DEAD before they can be the LIVING dead. Hence, most are "infected" and then DIE...only to come back from the dead. Therefore in 28 days later, the infected do NOT come back to life after killed, and are therefore NOT zombies. Rather they are "infected" humans.....not undead creatures.

I think that's about it for now......"Ok, you win, no more brains"

There's not going to be a 4th Evil Dead. Bruce won't do it, and I don't think Sam would try to do it without Ash.

Here is a link to Bruce Campbell's personal website...

ARE THERE PLANS FOR AN EVIL DEAD 4? (http://www.bruce-campbell.com/projects/evil-dead-4.htm)

Well as I said before I only liked the first two Evil Deads and whatever ones that follow are going to be crap because you can't keep carrying a movie on forever it will bore the audience.

Yeah I agree dead alive is a really good movie. Not exactly scary but then it still remains good in other ways.

George Romero's original "Night Of The Living Dead" will always be the best

Nope I think that it was ok but not the greatest. There will always be a better movie made. What with technology that is out nowadays.

I have to admit that The Beyond is one hell of a good movie that proves to be pretty scary in the sense that it makes you think about death and everything else that you're not supposed to. But hell I'm going to watch it again and again!

I go back to the days when to see The Beyond at all you had to either sit through the crappy fucked up fullscreen, rescored, heavily edited, anglicized (the directer's credit read "Luis Fuller"), shit quality print retitled The Seven Doors Of Death, or sitting through a twelfth generation dub of the uncut Japanese laser disc. You guys who saw it first on Anchor Bay's DVD don't know how lucky you are.
