Poll: Do you like zombie movies?

28 Days Later is the best Zombie movie I've seen. It could stand up to a film-class analysis, on top of its scariness. The "sequel" was terrible, though.

Runner up, for me, would be Dawn of the Dead (2004). Resident Evil isn't bad, either.

I second your choices. I love the apocalyptic zombie movies. They have a kind of Red Dawn feel to em (which I also love).

This is also why I liked I am Legend to a lesser degree.

28 Days later seems like the best to imitate. Done on a fairly low budget I believe and came out great.

28 Days Later and sequel are not zombie movies. They are stories about a viral sickness, not about the dead coming back to life. The infected are not dead and potentially can be cured.

I suppose in a literal sense, but really, how do you define life when the dead things are walking around and eating? Doesn't un-dead mean "not dead?" Seems like a technicality or minor plot point to me.
