Recommend a good zombie movie

Just saw 28 Weeks Later and loved it. I absolutely love zombie films.

So, I have seen:

28 Days Later
28 Weeks Later
Dawn of the Dead
Day of the Dead
Night of the Living Dead
Night of the Comet
Dead Alive
Planet Terror
& Shawn of the Dead

I’ve also played Resident Evil 4 and The Umbrella Chronicles.

What should be next on my list? What have I missed?

frost/nixon??

Anything by Michael Moore or Al Gore.

Resident Evil 4 for the Wii is unreal!!! :slight_smile:

My fiancee and I just watched all 3 resident evil movies this past weekend. They aren’t on the level of Dawn of the Dead but they aren’t too shabby. :slight_smile:

I would also rent Fido…that was FUNNY!!

Here’s a few, in order of awesomeness:

Zombi 2 (Zombie in the US)
Braindead (I think it’s called Dead Alive in the US)
Land of the Dead (not as good as the earlier Romero ones but hey, what is?)
Dellamorte dellamorte (aka Cemetary Man)
Dawn of the dead remake

The Evil Dead moves have some zombies in them too, sort of. Definitely watch these if you haven’t.

I’ll try to remember some more. I haven’t seen many horror movies recently, my wife doesn’t seem to enjoy them :slight_smile:

I think Diary of the Dead is great. George Romero’s latest. My kid’s bought me Shawn of the Dead on DVD. It still cracks me up even after seeing it 5 times.

Grindhouse - 2007 written by Quentin Tarantino & Robert Rodriguez
.

er, Grindhouse was 2 movies and the zombie one is on his list of ones he’s already seen…

Missed that - I was looking for Grindhouse in his list and skimmed right over Planet Terror.

Must have been in a zombie like trance to miss that

brainsss…MUST EAT BRAINSSS!!!

Thriller, Michael Jackson. Long version.

I dunno know about zombies but if you like vampires too then Twilight is REALLY good.

Not at all the same. Vampires don’t really float my boat, but like BarryP, I just can’t get enough of zombie movies. Ideally they should be apocolyptic, extremely gory, and lingeringly disturbing in some way other than just the violence. (28 Days and 28 Weeks Later fit the bill perfectly.) Just plain over the top gross is fine, too - I love Evil Dead II.

Unlike vampires, zombies have very little in the way of angst issues.

Ha. I was thinking of including that I’ve seen that as well.

This version is better, IMO. ; ^ )

Pretty soon Dead Snow

28 days later was so well done that I had to take time away from watching that genre. :wink:

So I watched Sean of the dead, enjoyed it, and then decide to watch 28 weeks later. What a classic case where the sequel just sucks.

Resident Evil isn’t too bad but you do have to go back to Romero if you really love the genre.

I actually liked the sequel. Yes, the plot sucked. The Code Red stuff was pretty stupid. The recurring Dad Zombie was dumb. But I thought the overall production, sound track, and cinematography was very good.

And the opening of that movie was one of the best zombie scenes I’ve ever seen. I think it stands as a short story on its own. I watched that scene twice again yesterday. My heart drops everytime I see his wife banging on the window, it pounds when I see the zombies running over the hill after him…the boat scene, all amplified by the awesome theme music, and then finaly he gets away…“Oh shit, oh shit, oh shit, oh shit…”

Incredible.

Not exactly Zombies( way too fast to be zombies), but nobody has mentioned I Am Legend
.

Not a movie, but have you read World War Z? GREAT book.

Yep, saw it. Decent.
