about zombies
 
I don't recall a zombie movie where the zombies could think. is there one? if not i think they should give it a try. We have been able to survive because there stupid. i think it would be cool to see what would happen if they could plot. I know it would be a lot harder to make it out alive!! what do you guys think?

The only ones that are coming to me right away are Return of the Living Dead and Cemetery Man. Those zombies think, talk, run, ride motorcycles, etc.

I guess i didn't think about it long enough before i opened my mouth. I do that alot. Re-anamater had zombies that think and talk too. Oh well I still want to see more along those lines!! :eek:

Ugh, my dreams are horrible enough when they are stupid, i dont need them plotting against me......


The psychos in 28 days later were a great twist on the old zombie motif. Rather than hungry corpses they are violently psychotic people, the upside being that they can starve :)

I always wondered if they showed a year or two after the events in, say Day of the Dead, if the zombies would have rotted to t he point that they couldnt move or function. i would think once the brain gave out, that would be it.

Vodstok, I think that would be cool if they showed it a year or so down the road. at least it would be something new!!!

Why
 
Yeah, return of the living dead was a kick ass movie. I saw part 2, but I think the first one was better.

Bub from day of the dead could think, and had loyalty to a father figure. He was quite the advanced zombie though, due to the training he went through post death.

What about Return of the living dead part 3? That was the one with the girl who turned into a zombie and poked things into her skin, right? She seemed pretty smart. That is one of my favorites. Funny as hell, and cool too.

Dead folks
 
I thought part 3 was kind of dumb.
But you're right, she did seem smart.

Ugh, Rotld doesnt count. They just refernced romero's stuff. Plus, the "zombies" in those movies were whatever they wanted them to be for whatever sight-gag they were pulling at the moment.


Bud was advanced, partially because of the time spent with him, partially because he was a soldier before he died. it is similar to (in the robocop movies) why Murphy was a successfiul cyborg and the others went nuts. They were wired the right way.
