either way it sucked and just to be clear techniclly they are zombies (zombies are living beings controlled by an unknown force such as black magic or infection) Living dead on the other hand are techniacally considered ghouls. But over time we just use the word zombie for both

It was a joke on the fact, as kruger said, that the emphasis was much more on the body of mia jovavich than on any horror or zombies....ha ha get it? :p

slow zombies

It's cool when the people are defending themselves in some hell hole and the zombies are attacking slowly.

Like in Zombie Flesh Eaters, when the Doctor and the others are trapped in the hospital and the zombies attack. It was good and hilarious watching them take down the zombes one by one. :)

Definatly slow Zombies, There akin to Jason in Friday the 13th and Michael Myers in Halloween. No matter how fast you run, or where you hide they will find you, even though they walk at a relatively slow methodical pace.

Any way, I think I prefer slow zombies. Fast ones have the potential to be ALOT kooler, but in the only fast zombie movie I saw(28 Days Later)....well, I dont thik anybody wants to hear my opinion on that piece of shit....cause It seems like a pretty popular movie here...
I don't know about that, despite having fast zombies (oh, excuse me, "infected") the thing put me to sleep. So you've got at least one person here who didn't think it was all that great. :rolleyes:

I saw it for the zombies. Milla Jovovich is too damn skinny and more flat chested then Jim Carrey. Michelle Rodriguez . . . now SHE should have gotten naked! :D

I like the slow zombies, but there's really no saying which is better. It's all in my taste of horror. I personally like the "lurking in the darkness, slowly closing in on you in its relentless, unstoppable pursuit" type of scare. It's more atmospheric and definitely builds the suspense. I mean, look at the original Night of the Living Dead. The corpses just lurk outside of the house ... patient ... waiting ... not in any hurry. They know where the food is, and they'll get it sooner or later. The fast zombies are more for people who like the quick thrill, the "jump out of your seat" fright. Which is a whole different kind of horror, which I like ... just don't prefer.
