Apart from the usual, I suggest two good ones I have seen recently - Dead Heat and The Dead Next Door.
While the former is an action flick with large doses of black humor thrown in, the latter is a low-budget, cheesy little flick. Mindless entertainment stuff.

Fuck me I haven't seen dead heat since it came out (straight to video - obviously). Are we talking about the same one with Joe Piscopo and Treat Williams? Plus I think it had Vincent Price in it as well (I think times were hard) I remember loving that film, but even then knowing it was a very guilty pleasure. How well does it hold up today?
Dead next door, good choice. Shit script. No production value but an entertaining indie nonetheless.
I'd have to say personally:
Return of the living dead - Horror and comedy at it's finest.
Day of the dead - just for re-watchability value. It's my Sunday afternoon horror
Dawn of the dead - both versions are great in their own right
Dead and buried
Dellamorte Dellamore
House (borderline zombi flick) but fucking great blend of horro/comedy
The beyond -incoherent rubbish. But great nonetheless
Re-animator. The uncut version is the bee's knees
Children shouldn't play with dead things - long, talky and gore-less. Not really sure why I like it
Zombi flesh eaters - Uncut on video in the early 80's. The eye scene was worth the other 80 or so minutes.
Some you might not be aware of which are ultimately poor but have some stand-out moments
Night of the comet - The general atmosphere
Videodead - The zombie looking through the TV at the wiewer. Creepy.
Night of the demons - Linnea Quigley and the lipstick. That has rewind value alone.
City of the living dead - Head drilling and throwing up guts.
House by the cemetary - Dr Freudstein chasing that aggrivating kid up the stairs
Zombi holocaust - the 'groaning' sound creeped me out
Lifeforce - That birds tits. Hells teeth
