I don't have a favorite one but if you really like the crappy ones try "Zombie Honeymoon" and "Zombie Strippers". I couldn't get thru but about 20 minutes of "Zombie Honeymoon" <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/barf.gif" alt="" /> and I haven't even tried to sit thru "Zombie Strippers". <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

I watched Zombie Strippers and it was...interesting.

A lot of the classics are fun to watch, I catch them on TV whenever they're on.

I don't have a favorite because each one works in it's own way.

Dawn of the Dead (2004) - fun zombie movie

28 Days/Weeks Later - not the best but I still really enjoyed both of them

Diary of the Dead (2007) - I know a lot of people who hated this, but I thought it had a good different take on zombie movies. Glad there's going to be a sequel.

and of course, Shaun of the Dead!! Love this one, cracks me up every time.


Besides movies, I like reading about them too.

Zombie survival guide was entertaining, and World War Z and The Walking Dead are awesome. I stopped going to my local comic book store, so I'm a bit behind on the comic.

Clint, if you've never seen Shaun of the Dead you have to. What's great about that film is it's not a spoof, really, but a combination of a hilarious comedy by Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg as well as a gnarly horror flick.

My favorite for sure. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

+1

I was skeptical about Shaun of the Dead before I watched it, but it turned out to be a really clever zombie movie. Simon Pegg (the main character) is actually a big zombie fan so I'm sure he wanted to keep the movie "real". He's also a big fan of the comic book I was talking about, The Walking Dead. He submitted a fan mail to the author (which is printed in the back few pages of the comic) and nobody believed him until he sent in his personal picture with props from the movie.

Any of the Romero zombie flicks are awesome, naturally, but the cheesier, more comedy-focused Return of the Living Dead series by Russo is also highly entertaining. The first Return was an absolute classic, and the "send more cops" line was brilliant!

Army of Darkness and The Evil Dead, naturally, are iconic, and for good reasons. There are more classic one-liners in these two flicks than any ten other movies put together.

The 70s flick Zombie, buy Fulci, is a brutal zombie movie with some really groundbreaking and gruesome effects. The eyeball scene is horrible and awesome.

Although not strictly a zombie movie, C.H.U.D was great fun.

The Dead Hate the Living was also pretty fun.

Zombie Nation was one of the worst-reviewed horror movies of all times, but I found it incredibly entertaining. I also ADORE terrible movies, though, so take that with a grain of salt. I own a boxed set of Godzilla DVDs <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

There are many more I enjoyed, but these are some of my standout faves.


Have I mentioned I really, REALLY like zombie movies????
