Zombie movies are a dime a dozen, especially since they became trendy and netflix became a thing.

Of all the ones you've seen, which one is the best?

In my opinion, cheesy as it is, Return of the Living Dead was the scariest. Had the most scary costumes of any I've ever seen (especially the main zombie, the brown one covered in sludge), the zombies were somewhat intelligent, and there was no way to kill them.

What about you? Be it scary, funny, campy, or all three, which one is your favorite?

I love all the George Romero ones pretty much so its hard to pick which one I like the most. I really enjoyed the 1990 remake of Night of the Living Dead.

Also probably not as popular as Night of the Living Dead and Dawn of the Dead, I loved Day of the Dead. The whole semi intelligent zombie thing was interesting.

One aspect I like about zombie movies is the older ones that use make up instead of special effects.

Day of the Dead is my favorite easily, the bad guy is just so brilliantly psychotic.

But I also like Braindead, Shaun of the Dead and 28 Days Later. Dead Set was also great but it's a TV miniseries not a film.

My favorite is Shaun of the Dead. I loved the comedy in the movie. I just wish a similar movie could be released now to parody zombie movies and show how they are becoming a dime a dozen cash ins.

Evil Dead. Bruce Campbell. Your argument is invalid. xD

Pretty much Shaun of the Dead and Zombieland since the whole survival aspect of a zombie film is to me had been over used far too many. I mean those two add humour or an appeal while trying not to get eaten.

The Walking Dead. It's just one long, unfinished, incredibly fucking awesome adaptation.

Zombieland. It's fun and cool with some enjoyable if one-dimensional characters. But it gets across the whole survival thing in a humourous way.

28 Days later for me is the best zombie movie. I thought it was genius.

I think it captured best how a zombie apocolypse would feel. The atmosphere in that movie was just incredible. Even though they weren't technically zombies, that just made it all the more real that a virus like rabies, or RAGE as they called it in the movie could do that to a whole country.

Honorable mentions go to:

Resident Evil the first movie and Dawn of the Dead, the remake. Those two rate as my second and third movie in no order, they will always have a special place in my heart and I feel they are some of the best zombie movies I've seen.

The Walking Dead is also great, but it is a Television Series.

I can give you my top 5: Shaun of the Dead, Zombieland, Night of the Living Dead, 28 Days Later, and Pontypool.

The original [REC], without a doubt. I thought it had excellent everything.

Only problem I had was that no one knew what a zombie was.
But whatever.

im with you on dead set. it was a genius piece filmmaking.. zombies to illustrate peoples obbsession with celebrities and fame, how they are used to feed the masses..

thats where zombie movies work the best. sure the argh braaaaains is fun but when the whole story is an examination of an issue oh it works well

I have to say that looks very good. Very Stubbs the zombieish. Now I want to see it!

I hadn't even heard of it until I saw the trailer you posted.

It's a Canadian film, didn't really have much luck outside of Canada sadly. This is one of those rare comedies where the trailer isn't actually as funny as the movie itself. The real good bits are in the full movie.

[Rec] and 28 Days later hands down.
The only 2 movies that scared me in a long time.

Pirates of the Carribean Dead Man's Chest.

What? It counts!

The Walking Dead. It's just one long, unfinished, incredibly fucking awesome adaptation.

I have to agree with you there, I've just finished reading the comic book (up to the most recent issue) and I think I want to marry the thing.

Hard one! Zombie Flesh Eaters has some of the beast atmosphere and zombie design, but it is very cheesy. It has a zombie fighting a shark, for one thing. Shaun of the Dead has a very special place in my heart for a few reasons.

The most original take on it that I've seen is Pontypool. Really, really interesting take on it. Here's the short of it: it takes place in a radio station, and the "zombie virus" is spread via infected words. See it!

I love the zombie comedies, so it either comes down to:

Shaun of the Dead

or

Zombieland

I pick Zombieland.

Zombieland. The survival guide is built in. Dawn of the dead is second place.

Really it depends on what you're looking for in your zombie movies. If you're looking for mindless zombie-killing fun, then I'd go with Zombieland. If you want social commentary, go with Dawn of the Dead (old and knew) and/or 28 Days Later...though those are technicaly more mutant than zombie, still it's essentially the same premise. :P

Annnnnnd if you're looking for lame action that takes itself a bit too seriously, look no further than the Resident Evil movies.

Zombie Hitler scoffs at your lesser films.

But it will grudgingly accept Night of the Living Dead and Shaun of the Dead.

I'd say Dawn of the Dead, 28 Days Later but my favorite is Lucio Fulci's Zombie. Because of the atmosphere it really is a truly scary film.

Shaun of the Dead and Zombieland.

Shaun of the Dead and [Rec]2 probably.
Honorable mention to Zombieland as well.

And if it counts, Pirates of the Caribbean - Dead mans chest

Shaun of the Dead or 28 days later. Can't decided

Shaun of the Dead of course

No "Braindead" here yet? Oh well.

Also, I recently saw a movie called "Deadgirl". It's pretty good.

Night of the living dead is a definitive classic I feel that's pretty understood. While a lot of people feel it as the weakest of the original Romero trilogy Day of the Dead is one of my all time favorite zombie films. The story, the antagonist, the morality issues, it was just great with a pretty awesome soundtrack.
Speaking of awesome soundtrack the 28 days later films are great all though purists might not consider it a zombie film.
