"In response to Resident, I think more people like DOTD remake if they don't see the original first. My friend saw it as his first zombie film, and he loved it, since he wasn't comparing it to the original. While I do agree that it doesn't live up to the original, it's better than a lot of crap we have now. (House of the dead.)

Also, to BigD, I've heard of equal numbers of people loving and hating Zombie Town. Personally, I'm on the line in between. The movie itself was terrible (acting, FX, plot, etc), but something about it (probably Randy) made it sorta fun for me to watch.

Anyone seen the original NOTLD that has color added to it? The color SUCKED!

Finally, a lot of critics hated the RE films. I actually liked them, and couldn't figure out why critics didn't. What did y'all think?"
House of the Dead was really bad, you are right about that. Do you find this valuable?

28 Days later is my favorite "zombie movie" because everything seemed so plausible. They gave a very realistic accounting of how the infection originated and spread. The sociological elemenst were very sound (hooking up with other survivors, protecting one's child, the need to know about missing loved ones, and the sliding scale of evil amoungst survivors). The elements of killing the infected were totally in line with the description of the infection. Just really good all around, in my opinion.

That being said, 28 weeks later is one of my least favorite zombie movies because nearly every aspect of it is completely inplausible. Specifically the military strategies and tactics. Ok, you 're on an island, good plan. But you don't put any type of fortification or control post on the bridge and it is protected by a gate with a padlock on it that breaks if a few people push against it!?! Ok, you have snipers in posts that provide unhindered sightlines into all of the apartments, very nice. but your emergecy plan is to lock all of the civilians in a bsement with no armed personnel or any way to watch over them!?! Why not just tell them to lock themselves in their apartments and keep the drapes open? Ok, things have gone to **** and the infected are attacking. What the hell happened to all those tanks and APCs we saw when people arrived? I don't care how ******* aggressive that virus makes you, you are not going to rip open a battletank! You have a virus which turns people into raging lunatics with no upper brain functions at all, but your "oh **** scenario" involves indiscriminately shooting anything that moves? Pretty sure those people escaping in that car are not infected, so maybe don't try to gun them down with the Apache. You have just discovered an infected person with unique characteristics which could lead to the discovery of a cure. So you decide to destroy her, but first leave her completely unguarded!?! :( Do you find this valuable?

Day of the Dead Remake is THE WORST REMAKE IN THE HISTORY OF CINEMA. Not only does it have NOTHING to do with Romero's original, but it SUCKED. Acting was pitiful too. Kinda like the actors in Diary of the Dead. Diary of the Dead was decent though. 2  out of 2 found this valuable. Do you?

I like all zombie movies, even bad ones. They are sometimes the best.

But I loathe 28 Days Later. Damnable cinematic excretion. 1  out of 2 found this valuable. Do you?

"Actually the last time I checked the max range for shotguns was 60 feet."
Range and accuracy depend on the round used, barrel length, and type of sights. A Mossberg Slugster, can take out a milk jug at around a hundred yards if your good with it. Do you find this valuable?

dont forget about return of the living dead sasquatch. it was still good and the zombies did talk a little.

(thats why i havent watched it yet) Do you find this valuable?

Meh. ROTLD was okay, but I felt like it should've played more on the comedy.

Never seen zombie nation. How about I am Omega? A wussier version of I Am Legend. Do you find this valuable?

"Sure, there are tons of bad zombie movies out there. In fact, most of them are bad. But the remake of Dawn of the Dead and the Lucio Fulci stinkfest, Zombie, stand out as notably underwhelming. The Dawn remake made the zombies way too quick and almost not really zombies, the atmosphere was never creepy, the lighting was bad, the zombie kills were unbelievable (really? - no, like shotguns from 40 feet, come on)... it just didn't need to be made. And Fulci's Zombie was so hyped up, and then sucked so bad. The makeup was terrible. The music sucked. Again, not even a whisper of a creepy atmosphere. But hey, not all bad... the nudity was very nice and a couple of the kills were really gross."
The bad fraction of the movies are from the counrties where guns are outlawed such as china. almost EVERY single person their has never shot a gun before so they would'nt know that shotguns aren't effective from 40 feet. Do you find this valuable?

I think I saw gangs of the dead... It's one where a meteor hit L.A. And created zombies. A few gangs and cops group up in a warehouse and eventually all die cause they don't know how to survive, lol.

To tell you the truth... I didn't like The Mad either. That was more like attack of the killer cheeseburgers. It just didn't interest me about 20 minutes into the movie. Do you find this valuable?

Was anyone else kinda surprised the Gangs of the Dead was almost exactly what Brooks hat written about in the ZSG (that part with the outbreak in 1994.)
The ending was different, but many things were really similar. Do you find this valuable?

Yea I kinda noticed that. It was one of those movies I rented off the television network. Me and my ma saw gangs of the dead and paid for it cause we'd never heard about it. And while watching we discovered... Why we'd never heard of it. Lol Do you find this valuable?

Romero hasn't made a good zombie flick, since his 1990 remake of Night Of The Living Dead. That was his best, next the the original DOTD.

I hate all Zombie comedies. All the "Return" flicks and especially that abortion, "Zombieland".

I'm waiting for The Walking Dead tv series, based on the graphic novel by Robert Kirkman
