| All of Romero's are good, but Dawn of the Dead is the best. I haven't seen many others that I've liked. I probably like Romero's the most because, like me, he finds zombies boring and only uses them as a vessel for more important things, like developing the characters and social commentary. Zombie movies that focus on the zombies are just wasting my time. |

What I hate about zombie movies is that fact that you know when some one is going to get eaten and when the zombies are fast  |

| 28 Days Later. I really like Danny Boyle anyway but then he went and put Godspeed You! Black Emperor on the soundtrack and I freaked out a little bit in the theater. |

The first half of the movie was absolutely brilliant. It's just a pity that the studio didn't have the courage to go with the director's vision and sanitised it. |

Well, technically in Zombieland, they were "the infected" rather than zombies from the dead. |

Shockwaves. It's old and hokey most of the time, but there are some creepy scenes where the nazi zombies are walking underwater, and where they come walking out, I thought they did really good.
I hate the scene in land of the dead where the zombies come out of the water and you can see their breath in the chill air.
I did like the dawn of the dead, with ving rhames, also.

My thoughts exactly.
I'm tired of zombies in general. Zombies and vampires, damn, I'm sick of both. I wish the print and film industries would play with some different monsters for a while.

I'm sure British character actors need the work! |

Hopefully, Prometheus delivers. That should have a lot of British citizens in it.
