That I believe was due to them having eyes on the sides of their head if I am not mistaken, like common prey animals do. Deer, rabbits, etc. aren't really able to focus on anything, but they are out of this world good at detecting movement and can see nearly in 360 degree radius due to the placement of their eyes.

I think the zombie green colour came out as a result of some targets and graphic novels using that colour to represent the gore coming out of a zombie

I love zombie movies whether it is traditional like White Zombie or I walked with a zombie or the Romaroe "modern zombie" to the ragers like 28 days later
The only ones I don't like are the super powered ones, you know the type, they get super fast or run along ceilings ect.

I think the zombies in 28 Days Later are a nice balance between not being too languid while avoiding the superman zombie thing. They make for a real scary zombie, where just one zombie is a serious threat in itself.

Yeah, 28 days later was the first Zombie movie that legitimately scared me, for just that reason.

I enjoyed 28 days later, I liked the fact that these "zombies" were not dead but alive
I also like zombie comedies like
Fido
Shaun of the dead
Zombieland

Shaun of the dead and Zombieland are two of my faves. Zombieland never fails to get a belly laugh out of me.

If you like Shaun of the dead, Hot Fuzz was done by the same group.
Not a zombie flick but funny none the less

Thanks Bill. smile I actually saw Hot Fuzz before SotD. It was funny. Simon Pegg is a really funny actor. His Scotty in the new Star Trek movies is pretty great.

Do you read any Zombie themed comics or books? I like a few of the novels I've read, and I wanna check out TWD comics.
