    Zombie movies set in the future? (Sci-fi zombie flicks)

    I'm drawing a blank. Are there any sci-fi zombie movies, or zombie movies set in the future?

    I could have sworn there was one made in the early 80's, but I can't remember the title.

    Anyone??

    The only one that comes to mind is Lifeforce. Sort of zombies, sort of "space-vampires."

    Creature (1985) starring Klaus Kinski. Bad B movie Alien ripoff with the added bonus that dead crewmen are revived as zombies. Not much plot but plenty of gore. Rumor is the copyright wasn't renewed so the movie rights fell into the public domain a few years ago.

    Planet of the Vampires
    aka Terrore nello spazio (1965)

    Don't be fooled by the title, there are definately zombies in this Italian movie directed by Mario Bava. It's a good one. Note how much Ridley Scott borrowed from this movie when he made Alien in 1980.

    How is that? They changed the copyright law in the '70s or so, so regardless, it should still be copyrighted by someone.

    The way it is now, it is the life of the creator, plus 50 years after death. Then I believe the people who inherit it or whatever, can renew it indefinitely. (But then I heard about it falling into the public domain after 50 or 75 plus years, so who knows. Someone to find out for sure I guess!)

    Oh they don't?

    Alien comes to mind... That movie scared the **** out of me the first time I watched it. I'd also call it science-fiction.

    Beware the beast, man, for he is the Devil's pawn. Alone among God's primates, he kills for sport or lust or greed. Yea, he will murder his brother to possess his brother's land. Let him not breed in great numbers, for he will make a desert of his home and yours. Shun him, drive him back into his jungle lair, for he is the harbinger of death.

    Lifeforce is an awesome movie. It's probably the closest you'll get to a zombie sci-fi movie. Hey wait a minute, wasn't Astro Zombies a sci-fi flick?

    The Astro-Zombies (1968) or Space Zombie Bingo (1993) COULD technically be considered scifi zombie movies, but I wouldn't recommend either one.

    I thought the same thing when I saw Planet of the Vampires a few months ago. That is a really cool movie, alittle cheezey but still pretty awesome.

    It may not be a movie (yet) but Halo has Scifi and Zombies (the Flood). As well as Half-Life, those headcrabs are kinda "zombie-aliens".
