LOVE Zombie flicks and here is my Top Ten...
NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD (1968)-All time favorite film period. Still scary as hell. 1990 remake isn't really necessary, but worth seeing.
DAWN OF THE DEAD (1978). excellent film by Romero and saw this at many "Midnight Movies" in the early 80's and always brought new "victims" to experience it. Been to Pittsburgh twice (1995 KISS KONVENTION and 2007 MONSTER BASH) and HAD to visit The Monroeville Mall.
DAY OF THE DEAD (1985). Was psyched to see this in the theatres and was really let down by it. A couple of years went by and a video rental got me back on track and I really started liking it more. After reading about the problems George had making it, my appreciation continued to rise and while it's not as good as the first two, certainly great and Savini's FX is awesome.
RETURN OF THE LIVING DEAD (1985). Prefer my zombies slower, but this is so wacky and frantic that I can overlook that.
RE-ANIMATOR (1985). Don't recall seeing this on previous posts for this thread. Ballsy as hell and certainly tasteless.
DAWN OF THE DEAD (2004). One of the best remakes ever.
28 WEEKS LATER (200-?) Liked 28 DAYS LATER, but think this is better. Good performances by all, especially Robert Carlyle and Jeremy Renner.
SUGAR HILL (1973). Cheesy AIP flick, but the zombies are pretty scary.
ZOMBIE (1979). My favorite Fulci flick and as I mentioned in another post, one of the best gross outs ever.
NIGHT OF THE CREEPS (1986)/ DEAD ALIVE (1992)-Had to make it a tie for #10 Really like these ...funny, awesome FX for the budget and I actually like the characters a lot too.
