Don't know why, but fancy watching a decent Zombie flick tonight, I know, is there such a thing?

Pass on Shaun of the dead, brain dead comedy type.

looking for a proper budget 80's we are all going to die flick?

Ta.

dawn of the dead!!!(where they are trapped in a shopping mall!!!that is a good film.

Has to be the original and the best: Dawn of the Dead

Evil Dead, REturn of the living Dead – but comedies.

The recent re-make of the Mall one was ood I thought (and by the grandaddy, of only I was cool enough to wear glasses like he does)

If you can find it – The Living Dead At The Manchester Morgue:

EDIT –

a proper budget

sorry – ignore that recommendation 🙂

I'd go along with the original Dawn Of The Dead but goto admit Shaun Of The Dead is a great laugh.

Omega Man. Or if you can stand Will Smith, Legend.

The original Dawn Of The Dead, one of the few films I can watch again and again.

Dawn of the Dead – obvious classic

Day of the Dead – worth a watch too.

28 days later (Zombie flick?) is always worth a watch

Re-animator for a laugh

Braindead for the aussie twist on a Zombie Flick!

Zombie Flesh Eaters – low budget gore fest

28 days later is my favorite.

scary fast zombies 🙂

i bought a film called outpost the other day, but havent watched it yet.

Modern Special forces team hole up in a WWII bunker while in stealth mode and find nazi zombies in the basement.
ROCK!

you got an Xbox360 perchance?

"left 4 dead" is an awesome multiplayer zombie game.

basicly legging it through linear levels dodging, dragin each other and hacking quick zombies

This looks promising (for a new small-ish budget flick) Dead Snow

+1 dawn of the dead – bikers+zombies+custard pies=classic
and of the sequels, lunchtime of the dead, elevenses of the dead, teatime of the dead….
+1 reanimator and the sequel are hilarious
Bad Taste although arguably the zombies are aliens

first resident evil movie, whilst rubbish, is very watchable

looking for a proper budget 80's we are all going to die flick?

Another recommendation for the original Dawn of the Dead, or Night of the Living Dead (which can be watched for free online as it's out of copyright).

This is good if you can find it:
clicky

28 days later starts well, but like most Alex Garland plots it gets lost half way through.

Bit left-field but I really liked C4s Dead Set – Big Brother meets Shaun of the Dead. A lot more realistic than the usual American zombie films and even the mrs who hates both Big Brother and my Zombie film obsession liked it…

nickc – pretensions aside, have you ever seen any other Zombie films?

RepacK,good choice!!!!that film scared the s*** outta me,when i was 13!!!

28 Days Later – top movie and great music (Godspeed You Black Emperor when he is walking the deserted streets and first zombie attack)

Black Sheep – New Zeland horror spoof with killer zombie sheep…no really!

SSP

Yes race it scared the bejesus out of me too!

Black sheep was crap though.

return of the living dead! brains…. awesome funny film

re-animators are fun too

i want to see versus and night of the comet!!!

anyone got a link to these 2 movies 😉

Enjoyed the 2nd Resident Evil film, numerous zombies and hot ladies

The Will Smith/Legend one was good too.

(slightly offtopic) does anyone else remember 'I Bought A Vampire Motorcycle' ?

Class

original dawn of he dead is the definitive zombie film
omega man is awesome too
and another vote for brain dead

dead snow is out soon, nazi zombies anyone

To quote someone's Youtube comment for Dead Snow "Nazis+Zombies=About f**king time!"

Outpost got there first though.

However, unlike us Brits, Norwegians actually watch their own home grown cinema.

The Crazies – precursor to Romeros 'dead' films,

Shaun of the dead was very funny.

Proper ones 28 days later.

Got a copy of Dawn of the dead in the end, a vhs copy, so will be setting up the vcr from the garage tonight, after playing doom 3 in the dark to get me going.

Wish me luck……

what Olly said, Left for dead on the x360 is like being in your own zombie film, only with three of your mates! its v v v v good fun!

Outpost got there first though.

And this, which really isn't worth bothering with:

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0076704/

Romero's films are unusual for zombie films in that they have a bit of humanity to them. If you're not bothered about that and just want to watch something really nasty, I'd recommend anything by Lucio Fulci, this in particular:

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082307/

That Dead Snow looks good. The 'dead' in Outpost were not that dead looking. Good film though.

I liked the remake of Dawn of the dead. Also Romero's Land of the dead. To add some comedy to it for a low budget flick Flight of the living dead. Low budget, but a genuinely good low budget zombie flick.

A bit off topic is a film called The Abandoned. IMDB didnt find it that great but I think that it was more original than a lot of horror flicks these days. Its the subtley of it all that freaked me out!

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0475937/

Oh, and a good film if you can stand Danny Dyer is The Doghouse.

http://www.doghousethemovie.com/

Robert Rodriguez' Planet Terror

not really zombies, but werewolves…

Dog Soldiers!

Quotes from IMBD:

Sergeant Harry Wells: My guts are out Coop!
Cooper: We'll just put 'em back in then!
Sergeant Harry Wells: They're not gonna **** fit!
Cooper: Of course they'll fit, man!

Megan: What happened?
Spoon: What happened? We were attacked by huge ****' howlin' things, that's what.

Cooper: [after Wells has had his intestines exposed] How are you feeling?
Wells: A touch of gas. And the fact that various body parts are trying to vacate the premises, **** awful.

[Upon landing in the chopper]
Wells: I want a good, clean dispersal. I want a secure landing-zone. Go go go go go. Joe, get outta the pissin' chopper.
Joe: I'm not missing the footy for this. It's totally bone. I'm not goin', Sarge. I'm not goin'.

Its one of my favorite films!

reminds me, does anyone else remember the 90s film "I bought a vampire motorcycle"?

With the talking turd 🙂

Ooh horror flicks!

Can't wait for that Nazi zombie thing.

With the talking turd

You mean Neil Morrissey? 😉
