"Living Dead" type movies?
 
For some reason I have a thing for the dead flicks and those similar to it.

Here is a list of the ones I find memorable, if anyone knows of any others I could check out, please point them out!

Night of the living dead (original)
Dawn of the Dead (original)
Day of the Dead

Return of the living dead
Return of the living dead II
Return of the living dead III

Night of the Living Dead (remake 1990)
Dawn of the Dead (remake 2004)

28 Days Later
Shaun of the dead (it counts i guess)

Demons
Demons II
(i actually liked these movies.. while it was 80s low budget gore, i found it rather eerie)

am i missing any classics or good movies here?

ItsAlive75 05-25-2005 10:49 PM

Dead Alive
Children Shouldn't Play With Dead Things
Zombi

*Clears Throat*


28 Days later is not a zombie movie, they are infected but still alive!


That being said, i get your point and it is very much a zombie film, except for the complete lack of zombies. It fills all of the rules of a zombie movie, it just has raving lunatics rather than walking corpses.

justice7 05-26-2005 05:20 AM

well neither is demons but its more a 'holocaust' type of film like the dead movies.

of course i dont consider 28 days part of the trilogy... but it at least entertained me :)

Vodstok 05-26-2005 05:24 AM

Sonmeone always bitches about that little details so i figured i would get it out o fthe way.

I personally Love 28 days later and cant understand people who say it is shit. It gets everything right aws a movie, and i am willing to bet Romero liked it.

urgeok 05-26-2005 05:34 AM

there is a shit pile of italian zombie films ..

just google 'italian zombie movies' and you'll find all kinds of lists.

the same movie can go by several different names so you have to investigate.

a couple are Burial Ground
Cemetary Man (personal favorite)

you can easily find 30 - 40 more

kung-fu-jesus 05-26-2005 01:06 PM

urgeok is right there is a shit load of zombie films out there some are good while some are bad. there are to many to count, go to

www.horrormovies.com

there are also a shit load of indie zombie flicks.

ItsAlive75 05-26-2005 02:10 PM

Ooooh, I forgot Zombiez!!

Mixes zombies with the gangsta flava'.

BREAK YO'SELF, FOOL!

The_Return 05-26-2005 03:58 PM

White Zombie

crippler666 05-28-2005 03:50 PM

Zombie flesh eaters (The first one is good uncut - the others leave a bit to be desired)

Let Sleeping Corpses Lie AKA The Living Dead At The Manchester Morgue is quite funny

Braindead any film with a Kung-Fu priest has to be funny

knife_fight 05-28-2005 04:16 PM

I don't think I would include White Zombie in with the Romero films, and definitely not with 28 Days Later or Shaun of the Dead. if included at all, it would be for purely historical/influential reasons, being as it has nothing to do with the modern definition of the word "zombie."

I thought of that myself after posting....but who cares? It's still a zombie film...in a way...

The Mothman 05-30-2005 06:53 AM

I got a bucnh of nice and gory b-rated ones i've been looking up latley.

Zombie Doom (Super Gore, iv'e only seen the sceenshots)

Zombie Holocaust (looks pretty freaking cool)

Junk (Japo-crap basically. looks really corny, but it must have some nice gore, because i saw the preview in one of the guinea pig movie's special features)

Wild Zero (A japanese band comes across a bunch of zombies and stuff)

Burial Gound: Night Of Terror (Really gory italian zombie movie from the 80's)

Nightmare City (Science Fiction action horror thriller about radioactive zombie mutants who overrun a city. )

Hell OF The Living Dead (I heard it was a total dawn of the dead ripoff, supposedly they even "Borrowed" some of the sound clips from dotd. either way, its an Italian gorefeast)

Zombie Bloodbath (The name just gives off pure gory beauty. Suppoedly, a reviewer said that a whole 30 minutes of this film is zombies chompin' on guts. Sounds excellent.)

Zombie Cult Massacre (With a name like that, you just cant turn it down)


I havnt seen any of these, however ive read reviews.

SARS War
 
S.A.R.S. War


A foreigner who lives in the condominium has been infected with the SARS virus, which has mutated into a 4th generation virus. It has become the most dangerous virus ever discovered. The foreigner spreads the virus to other the residents in the condominium with ease. Everyone infected with the virus turns into a zombie.

Zombi 2

Elvis_Christ 06-11-2005 09:50 PM

Toxic Zombies is pretty cool. A real shitfest about hippies turning into zombies after smoking some poisoned dope.

ChEEbA 06-11-2005 10:10 PM

Versus, like, a zombie film, and then some...

Of course ROTLD 4 and 5 are meant to be getting a straight to video release shortly, aren't they?

Oh, and junk was stupid SHIT.

zwoti 06-12-2005 01:17 AM

I'm not sure what has changed, since the last post on this thread was in 2005, but another really good Living Dead like movie would be Diary of the Dead (2008). I believe that this film is considered in the Living Dead Series actually and is possibly my favorite zombie film of all time.
