    Favorite Romero Zombie

    Romero's Dead Films have all had their share of unique zombies who stand out from all the "normal" zombies. You always have zombies in police uniforms, zombies with missing body parts, zombies in clown costumes, etc. So out of all the unique zombies in his films, which one stands out in your mind the most?

    For me it's the Bride Zombie from Day of the Dead. She appears during the scene where the zombies break into the millitary base and kill all the soldiers, and she appears wearing a dirty bridal gown that she holds in one hand so she can walk and has a veil covering her face completely. I think the veil is what makes her stand out in my mind, the zombies in Day of the Dead were especially morbid looking because it was set years after they had taken over the earth and many of them were severely decayed due to time and exposure to the elements. So the fact that her face was hidden by cloth paints a particularly disturbing picture in my mind of how scary she must have looked. Maybe other people here feel the same?

    Why the greatest zombie of all time, of course - BUB! Accept no substitutes. King of the zombies.

    I've also always thought the cop in the liquor store near the beginning of Land was pretty cool. Great zombie walk.

    In the poll Bass linked to I had voted Airport/plaid zombie. He is my favorite NON BUB zombie, just beacuse of his appearance, how weird & messed up looking he is, & how Peter reacts when he sees him.



    I propose if anybody goes with Bub you have to name at least one other.

    Now if you had opened it up to NON-Romero zombies I've always loved this guy from Fulci's "Zombie" as well:

    Add to Bub, basically every zombie in day! They were all generally awesome!
    Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.
