There are dozens of zombie related movies in the world. Everything from George A. Romero's classic Night of the Living Dead to Zombie Honeymoon, an undead romance. The question posed is, what is the worst zombie film made to date?
There are alot of BAD movies out there, where zombies are just thrown into the mix, like Zombie Strippers, Zombie Honeymoon and Sars Wars: Bangkok Zombie Crisis. BUt one that stands out as god awful is House of the Dead 2. Now i am not talking about the game, but rather the movie, in which a college campus breaks out in a zombie epidemic. The dialouge is dryer than anything else, the horror is non-existant, and it has the guy from devils rejects in it, so it HAS to blow.

I'm sure it is shite, but have you seen any of the others we've mentioned? Guarrantee they are worse.
Easily, easily, and I will never be beaten on this, I don't care what anyone says, unless they have also seen it, the worst zombie film ever made is Hood of the Living Dead.
If anyone else has seen this, please, tell me so I know that me and my friends didn't just have some kind of weird hallucination and this movie was better than I remember. All I remember is that a black dude living in the ghetto with his cousin, and him making a zombie virus by mistake at his pharmaceutical job with two beakers, some tubing, and a 1999 Gateway computer running Windows 98. And then his cousin some how catches the zombie virus, and attacks the main character's white girlfriend (named Snow Flake, no less) and descends on southside L.A., eating up gang members and causing general havoc while the main character and his white lab buddy try to make things better.
My God... also it looks like it was filmed on a home video camera.

Sounds similar to Redneck Zombies, except that was moonshine contaminated with radioactive waste, resulting in what can only be described as a retina-raping psychedelic visual sequence. It too seems to have been shot using a home camcorder. Includes a character's LSD trip, which makes LSD look really boring. Oh, an the way to defeat the zombies? Aerosol cans. Yup. Also randomly features a character that never says a word, just spends the entire film drinking. It does have a hilarious parody of the hitchiker bit in Texas Chainsaw Massacre though.
i have seen a few of the posted examples, and YES they are bad. Another one (that i mentioned before) is Zombie Honeymoon. A zombie-human love story. you just cant make that good.
I've noticed that almost all the zombie movies I've tried to watch weren't good enough to hold my attention longer than 5 minutes(on one occasion i watched 20 because i was really sick and was having trouble getting my uncoordinated self to find the remote, and i watched all of Resident Evil because that was good). So to answer the question, all zombie movies are sodomy except the Resident Evil trilogy.
I've seen a film called Shatter Dead which is also quite bad, but redeemed by an unique & interesting premise.
Recently I bought a DVD from Tesco called Doomed, it was only 99p. I haven't watched it yet, it seems so bad even Wikipedia won't touch it. It looks like a reality tv survivor show on an island with experimental solider zombies gone wrong.

I'll give it to you that it sounds pretty bad, but being Troma (guys who made the Toxic Avenger) I'm gonna go with the idea that it was supposed to be bad. Hood of the Living Dead was completely serious. I mean, the main character tried to cry out in pain "SNOOOOOOW FLAAAAKEEE!!!" upon finding his dead snow-bunny girlfriend.
Jamash: I've seen Redneck Zombies, it's a Troma film, so I don't think it's supposed to be good. It doesn't really count if they're not trying.
you would be correct sir, they aren't trying to be good, that's kinda the point they are grindhouse movies for the most part
not sure what i'd consider the worst one i've seen, most of the "bad" ones i've seen are trying to be that way or it just makes them that much more awesome

If I watch it any time soon we may have a winner.
Granted, i know its supposed to be bad, but even for them its pretty attrocious. Much worse than Chopper Chicks. Must have either been a really early one, or someone other than Kauffman. Still funny in places though. If you're with mates and drinking anyway. Hood of the Living Dead sounds just plain awful. Potentially carcinogenic awful. For some truly dreadful entries into Zombie (as well as other horror genres), check out the reviews here: http://www.somethingawful.com/d/movie-reviews/ Zombies gone Wild sounds particularly craptacular.
30 days of night for one simple fact. It was meant to be a vampire movie but was a zombie movie. Zombies are cool and all but in there place. Vampires are meant to be verry different sly cunning evil creatures exept for the little minons but this movie made them out as just zombies.
Try The Incredibly Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living and Became Mixed Up Zombies. Yes, if you have seen it, they are supposed to be zombies. Yeaahhh..
And if you haven't, you aren't missing much--unless you see the Mystery Science Theater 3000 episode.

Um... how, exactly?
Now, if you'd have said I Am Legend, I'd be behind you.
Larenxis: Either Undead or Braindead (Dead Alive). So... so bad.
Shirley, you jest! Undead is the finest thing to come out of New Zealand (or is it Australia?) since... uh... koalas? How can you not love the scene where a bunch of zombies get cut up with a sawblade mounted on a broomstick in slow-mo, while the national flag slowly descends and unfolds behind the scene like in so many American campaign speeches? Beautiful!
