After seeing the Land vs. Dawn '04 debate going on the other forum, I figured this would be a decent idea.

Here, list your favorite zombie flicks, in order. This way, we can get a good read on everyone's preferences.

Here go mine:

#1. Dawn of the Dead
#2. Night of the Living Dead
#3. Night of the Living Dead '90
#4. Dawn of the Dead '04
#5. Day of the Dead
#6. Land of the Dead
#7. Resident Evil
#8. Return of the Living Dead
#9. 28 Days Later
#10. Shaun of the Dead

That's the Top 10 order, from what I remember seeing. I've seen others, but I'm trying to block out the memory (some really horrible films...).

1. Dawn of the Dead (1978)
2. Night of the Living Dead (1968)
3. Zombie Flesh Eaters/Zombi 2
4. Return of the Living Dead
5. Day of the Dead
6. Reanimator
7. Night of the Living Dead (1990)
8. Land of the Dead
9. The Zombie Diaries
10. Night of the Living Dead (2007 - not the s**ty 3D one)

Note: 28 Days/Weeks Later have been excluded because they are NOT zombie movies (groan), even though the creatures are zombie-ish. If I were to allow them in my chart, they would both rank somewhere in the middle. Also, I excluded The Evil Dead because people incorrectly categorise it (and it's sequels) with zombie flicks. In the first film, not one character died before 'coming back' (with the exception of Scotty of course, Shelley is debateable), so I can't put it in there. If I could, it would rank very high, maybe even number 3...

1. Night 68
2. Dawn 78
3. Night 90
4. Day 85
5. Dawn 04

All others (Land, Shaun, Revenge, 28 Days/Weeks, etc) just kinda tie for 6th. So that's my top 10.

F*uck 28 Days/Weeks/Months/Years/Decades/Centuries...... were interesting to view, but they're not in the same category, no matter how you define 'zombie'. These creaters are living, breathing people who are infected with a virus. They can be killed by any means like a regular person, including starvation!
