What's your favorite zombie movie, anon?
it will always be return of the living dead
>>221389245The Sadness wasn't nearly as edgy as /tv/ told me it was
Romero's Dawn. I love the remake as well
>>221389245The idol one
>>221389245https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2272350/
romerofags are always so serious
>>221389245
>>221389245Return of the Living Dead and REC
Train to Busan.Visually it looks silly, often. But the story it tells hits me very hard.
>>221389245Night of the Living Dead is my favourite. I don't think non-Romero zombie films are zombie films at all, although I enjoyed Zombieland and the remake of Dawn of the Dead.
Dawn of the Dead (1978)
>>22138924528 days later28 years later & bone templeR.I.P.D. if it counts as a zombie movieI Am Legend
>>221391705Love this movie and never hear anyone talk about it. I used to rent the dubbed version from blockbuster and loved how silly the acting was>"I CAN MOVE 500 TIMES FASTER THAN MIKE TYSON!!!"
Apocalypse Z: The Beginning of the End
>>221393076Incredibly based. I’m usually not a fan of foreign films, but this was really good.
>>221393171Why, imo it was incredibly mediocre and did nothing even remotely new or original.
>>221389245Not necessarily my favorite, but an honorable mention. Other favorites are >Shawn of the Dead >Dawn of the Dead>Return of the Living Dead>Overlord
>>221393195It wasn’t revolutionary sure, but you have to come up with something new to be good. It tweaked a few things here and there but it also didn’t include a bunch of garbage. It was a slow burn survival where a man used common sense and good survivor knowledge to survive. He didn’t make stupid decisions due to bored writers. It also reminded me a lot of project zomboid.
>>221389245My father used to binge watch this while getting druk
>>2213892452004 dawn is comfy, love some Bub tho
>>221393171You might enjoy The Night Eats the World, it's a French zombie film.
>>221391705remember watching this with /tv/ on a stream like 15 years ago, shit was wild
>>221393292I’ll add it to my list
Does Resident Evil count?
>>221390173this and return of the living dead
>>221393350Trash still gives me fond memories >be like 10 or 11>parents having important business house party, so hide me away in their bedroom >get to watch tv on their bed with my own pizza and snacks >pretty slammin deal >we had recently upgraded to direct tv so a bunch of the fancy channels were free for a while >find Return of the Living Dead>turn it on to see Trash’s strip scene full frontal uncensored>get to watch zombie titties and eat pizza all night God I hate getting old
>>221393336It has zombies, it counts.My own favourite zombie flick is Melania.
>>221389245they knew what they had with that carriage shot
>>221389245I skipped through the titty scenes to get to the shooting zombie scenes
>>221393200This one was surprisingly decent. Take out the frog daughter plotline and her mandatory zombie movie full-retard moment that gets half the cast killed running off to find her friend and I could bump it up 2 points
>>221393488At least she was young and cute back then.
>>221389245Does REC(or Quarantine) count?
>>221393305Also, give a look at the Alive film, it's a South Korean zombie film, one of the few I found alright to watch.
>>221393433>>221393524I’ll add both to my list, thanks fellow undead lovers
>>221393485>I skipped through the titty scenes to get to the shooting zombie scenesYou missed out on some of the best titty bouncing and jiggling in Anime history. Shame.
>>221393608lol I’m kidding, I gooned hard to the beach scenes and bath tub scenes.
>>221393573Dude, he's fucking with you, Melania is the shit film about Trump's wife.
>>221393639Kek I was thinking that, but I was too lazy to google if there was some old classic zombie movie with the same name
>>221389269it’s just on a complete other level. there’s a new sequel coming out soon. not excited about it.
>>221393882I think something that makes it so good is that the costumes and sets are genuinely terrifying, which shows on the faces of the cast. They seem genuinely scared and nervous. If I was an actor and had to do scenes with Tar man and other nasty looking zombies it wouldn’t be hard to conjure up some genuine fear.
I am a Hero is one of the only zombie movies where we see shit hit the fan in real time, and it's great.
>>221389245Train to Busan is the best, Zack Snyders Dawn of the Dead is my Favorite
>>221394133I do enjoy movies that feature the first days/weeks of the apocalyptic kickoff. I’m disappointed when they start the movie with “6 months later” and jump to total collapse. The process of collapse so interesting. It was probably the only good part of World War Z.
>>221393518I like the 3rd one the one with the couple that's gonna be married
>>221390173>romero>seriousu wot m8?The romero movies are goofy as fuck, from hitting a zombie in the face with a pie to pic related, its full of humor and goofiness and dumb shit.
>>221394172Watch I am a Hero, it's cool because the protagonist goes to work several days in a row and sees on the news as the zombie apocalypse gets slightly worse each day, until one day he randomly sees zombies killing people on his street while he's going to work.
>>221394247That’s cool, I like that. That’s realism I can get behind. >outbreak slowly spreading over the course of a week or so >despite media coverage, the average human response is to continue trying to maintain their routine >because an outbreak wouldn’t just hit everyone at the same time all over the country >one side of town is in ruin while the other side is still going to work and sending emails I don’t know why that is so interesting.
>>221394293Thats the opening chapters of world war z. Also sean of the dead since the movie takes the POV of one of those people who is oblivious until zombies are in his back yard. And there are plenty of clues in the background that it hasn't come out of the blue. The beginning of dawn of the dead is cops storming a building where the tenants have mostly handled the zombie problem on their own, and the swat raid is unrelated. The problem I think is focusing on the outbreak part would just be too long and slow if you wanted to do it realistically. Not to mention zombies are almost always monster-as-metaphor, so they almost always stand in for some other kind of social ill that causes everyone to be oblivious and apathetic, which means the problem is already there.
>>221394452> The problem I think is focusing on the outbreak part would just be too long and slow if you wanted to do it realistically.I’ve always held the belief that a good zombie apocalypse story doesn’t have to be the end of the world(maybe I’m misusing the world apocalypse). Just like WWZ, a zombie crisis can end after a few weeks or months and still be interesting. When a zombie apocalypse drags into years, it just becomes a survivalist story with zombies in the background, no different from a survival movie where a natural disaster or aliens destroy everything. I like the initial panic of trying to secure resources and arming yourself against the immediate threat of zombies and other looters. That’s why season 1 and 2 of walking dead are the only good seasons.
Last chance bump
I think there aren't any good zombie movies.It makes me pretty sad.

>>221393171>I’m usually not a fan of foreign filmsuh what? how?
>>221395214Subtitles and dubs are annoying to me. But also some of the style and acting is jarringly different from American productions, so it seems weird. I have been trying more and more foreign films though because I know there are good ones.
>>221395157It does seem like every zombie movie falls short of being what fans want. They always resort to leaning on traditional action movie tropes instead of going full zombie.
>>221389245Train to Busan
>>221395361One of the first foreign films I ever watched. It was pretty good
>>221395320There is so much potential. Still the zombie movies being made fall short of my expectations.I want them to be dark, gritty and scary.Like you say instead of going full zombie, they resort to the action/gore/splatter tropes.
Shaun of the Dead easily, but if for some bizarre reason you want to disqualify comedies, then probably Night of the Living Dead.
>>221395547You're rightNight of the living dead got the right mood.
>>221389245Dawn of the Dead (the real one)Sean of the Dead28 Days LaterAre my top 3.
>>221393250God I wish I was making sleazy shlock horror just to film big fake tits.
Is Reanimator mad science or zombie?
>>221395606Natural milkis are better
>>221392940>R.I.P.D.I wanted to like this one, but everything about it was garbage.
>>221395567Yeah, it's still probably still the creepiest a zombie movie has ever been. The overall tone is what really sells that movie.
>>221395511I’d love to see more attention to detail on firearms and some mention of prepping culture. It’s rare to find a zombie movie where at least 1 character is mildly prepared. And if there is one, he’s usually the bad guy for selfishly hoarding supplies. And the guns are always atrocious. Walking dead especially. It’s like every zombie movie ever made has a legal clause that bans anyone who’s ever handled a gun from setting foot on set. John Wick proved that you can make a good movie AND use realistic combat and gun techniques.
>>221395606>>221395641Boobs you’re able to touch>boobs with good shape and proportion> large naturals>medium naturals>small naturals>fake boobs of any size
>>221395511They go 3 ways. Slapstick, "actually, humans are the real monsters," or action/gore Snyder/michael bay style. 28 days later nails it better than most but even it's not a perfect movie. I feel like a whole 20 hour long episode series could be made just about the start of the zombie apocalypse. Like other anons here have said the collapse it was is the most interesting and sets up the most potential human drama and zombie scares. The beginning of 28 days later, the whole bit in Dawn of the Dead where her neighborhood is getting absolutely fucked by zombies is great. They could also have the military be competent good guys instead of moronic villains but show how bad the zombies are getting when the breakouts destabilize the chain of command, logistics etc. There are so many potential stories.
>>221395718I agree.Shitty attention to detail on firearms really kills the vibe, just look at The Walking Dead for example lmao.
>>221395193what's wrong with VLC?
>>221395785It just tells me they don’t understand what makes zombie movies good. They keep trying to make zombie movies serious. Zombie movies are good because zombies are cool, they defy logic. You don’t need to dedicate time and energy to explain why biologically zombies are feasible. You don’t need to write a whole social drama set up with each character, tell their story through action and body language, not long drawn out conversations that serve no purpose. Many times the action scenes feel like cheap transactions between dialogue scenes, instead of being the main focus. That’s why Army of the Dead is good in my eyes. It’s short blurbs of dialogue between action scenes
>>221395771There’s a reason the first and second episode of walking dead were the best. Exploring the downtown area to find guns, ammo, and supplies. Then retreating to a camp outside the city. It was a great balance of direct conflict with zombies and surviving as a group.
>>221395771The remake of the dawn of the dead have a good portrayal of the early stages of the outbreak. No one really knows what's going on, full panic.People completely caught off guard.You never get to know what caused the outbreak either, which is a good thing.Supposedly supernatural cause (kino). The military try to help the public with sanctuaries (fort benning) but the outbreak is world ending so you don't get to see the military, but you get the feeling that they didn't have time to mobilize.
>>221395878>you have MAN ON MAN relations....
>>221395835There's also often the filler in zombie movies "It's the hecking end of the world lets freak out and horse around"
>>221395878I wish more zombie movies were made like The Crazies, which is a quasi zombie movie. It gets to the point and has a real sense of run and gun to survive. Great gun action, cool infected, cool military involvement, cool vibe in general.
>>221395902Aren't you the guy who likes fake tits?
>>221395913I get that in a crisis people DO freak out and waste time, but it makes a movie very boring. Just get on with it. I don’t care about their depression and anxiety.
>>221394247You may enjoy the web only prequel episodes, I watched an English subbed version but I can't remember where. They have an unsubbed version on YouTube however https://m.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLvvhd-2ILToNYOA-VcwDHkD5Zk7v5WWQh
>>221393200Weird how this movie almost spun off into a full blown franchise.
>>221393200>Dave BautistaOh no no no
>>221396095Seriously. They had something great going. Army of Thieves/Dead were solid movies. I would love to see where else they could have gone with it
>>221395718Not a Zombie film, but that's one of the great things that Tremors does. Really turns the trope of "preppers are selfish and crazy" on its head.
>>221396323It was so good it carried a one off summer movie into a franchise where he’s the main character.
>>221395829>what's wrong with VLC?
>>221394452>The problem I think is focusing on the outbreak part would just be too long and slow if you wanted to do it realistically.This is why they should do some random series or movie and have it start out as your standard drama with slight hints there's something going on in the background and then half way have it turn in to a zombie outbreak.
>>221396511I love movies were there are background signs of disasters that slowly get worse>TV playing the news in the background showing first reports >empty restaurants >flickering lights >traces of blood splatters on walls >abandoned vehicles
>>221394223is that the guy from izombie
Last last chance bump
>>221390082hell yeah the battery is the bomb
night of the living deadyou can watch it for free herehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Night_of_the_Living_Deadit's a shame we never get a good foot shot of Barbara
>>221389245The scene doesn't make any sense from a forensic perspective.So they mauled eviscerated and mutilated a group of people instantly and on the spot that their bodies are neatly piled up on one another. No one tried to run away, they just stood there and get slaughtered. The pram is a bloody mess with bits and guts on it but somehow the material endured the force of the onslaught brought down on the baby. Fuck the edgelord who shot that scene he needs to open his goddamn eyes and pay attention to details
return of the living dead and the 90s remake of night
>>221389245Planet Terror
>>221400999Checked and based. Surprised it wasn’t mentioned sooner
Anybody else seen Juan of the Dead? It's foreign but a pretty decent and fun zombie movie
>>221389245the first RE has perfect pacing, great music and really good action scenes. Apart from a bit of subpar cgi and like one scene of questionable acting/writing I have no complaintsPlus the robotwat and laser hall way became icons.
Savageland was surprisingly kino for a low budget mockumentary on the 'tube
>>221393250This one was pretty good actually and one of the last real zombie movies to come after a ton of low budget and somewhat notable ones storm 2007-15
>>221396323>is divorced in the sequel>Reba took his HK91 when they split
>>221394191Wait wasn't this the one with the cute redhead who goes full rambo towards the end?
>>221389269Based.>>221393882>not excited about it.Same. The guy who wrote, directed and produced it has a history of absolutely terrible movies. It was also meant to be out in 2024 and has been delayed a lot, I think it's now 2027 that it's coming out.>>221393910I might be misremembering but I think the cast hadn't seen Tarman yet and their reactions were from the first take when they had no idea what he looked like. The movement of the zombies is what also set it apart, the mobility made that shit extremely scary.
Bump
>>221395707Qrd tell me more anon
>>221395567>Night of the living dead got the right mood.Not to me, it felt like the scale was tiny and I was well aware it was a movie or that it was an event only occurring in that small town. The first 10 minutes of Dawn of the Dead were better in every way.
>>221395902They scrubbed that scene like crazy on all streaming versions. Physical copies or piracy wins again.
>>221395948Rare instance of a remake being superior to the original.
>>221399059The dead were likely brought to a pile where they fucked them.
>>221401921It's cool that the slicing and dicing was mostly practical effects.
>>221394133Wait isnt that a manga? They made a live action movie of it? Theres no way the movie covers all of the material where does it stop at? I read the manga and outside of the beginning i thought it was pretty mediocre and the ending was god awful.
>>221396419Works on my machine
>>221402744no, that's the remake Night of the Living Dead (1990)Patricia Tallman as BarbaraDay of the Dead (1985) has Captain Rhodes and the film is like being stuck in a bunker with cokeheads battling between idealism and practicality.
>>221393910>the part where they knock tar man's head off and it accidentally hits casey
>>221393200This is one of the worse movies I have ever watched, it is complete shit.Though ironically the prequel about the german safe cracker was OK, even if the cast was cancer.
>>221393200As far as zombie movies go, this one was absolutely terrible. I'd rather watch all of the Resident Evil movies back to back in one night than endure watching Army of the Dead ever again.
>>221403733and Bub, never forget Bub
>>221390173I find this movie and most of Jackson's movies just annoying, it's too much of that so le quirky shit.
>>221389245I don't know, uh, Return of the Living Dead maybe, while here's my 30th anniversary review ....https://web.archive.org/web/20160313093321/http://247365hatemachine.blogspot.ca/2015/12/return-of-living-deadfact_27.htmlhttps://youtu.be/YeoNqcpSjtE?si=ulyXDEZzUB-_8N9Z!!!FACT!!!

>>221393350
>>221406076

>>221406076Linnea was much hotter in her Trash attire than her usual blonde look Also interesting that Jewel Sheppard made it through the whole movie without getting naked, I guess they figured they couldn't get an R rating with two naked hotties the entire runtime. Wonder if they flipped a coin or something
>>221404984
R.E.C (2007) is my favorite, Resident Evil Apocalypse is also pretty fun, it is the only one I watched out of the milla re movies
>>221400999>Planet TerrorTechnically not zombies as they're just people who have been infected and not confirmed that they're dead!!!FACT!!!
>>221394543Whenever a zombie story lasts several years after an outbreak, it will inevitably lead to "humans are the real monsters" storylines but when it is a fresh outbreak, you will see both the best and worst of humanity, selfish fucks leaving people to die for their own sake and selfless heroes doing what they can to help others even at the risk of their own lives, it is definitely more interesting
>>221406244>Whenever a zombie story lasts several years after an outbreak, it will inevitably lead to "humans are the real monsters" storylineSuch a tired trope. Just once I'd like to see one where humanity is united and rebuilding, but still lives with the limitations of not being able to leave their own immediate area to start connecting with other settlements.
>>221406276The metro series doesnt have zombies but it does have monsters that keep people from walking around freely and the main character keeps traveling and looking for other settlements outside of the metro, I like the books and games, you might too.
>>221406322Kek yeah, I read the books and played the games. The books are a lot better than the games imo but that's not surprising. I thought Metro Exodus was not as good though, it was fun but didn't feel like a Metro game to me because of all the new game mechanics.
>>221396511Isn't that Hitchcock's "The Birds"?
>>221390346This was a lot of fun.
>>221395948The original was a very tense, very interesting movie
>>221406386I was upset that the opening of Exodus literally has out the twist ending of 2035 that Artyom was hoping for people outside of the metro that live and that the leaders of the metro knew and actively kill anyone that stumbles on them and uses radio jamming to hide themselves from the world
>>221406161B17 was so fucking creepy.
>>221395214How is that a hard concept to understand?
>>221406751I suppose they couldn't just make it the book over again, so it's a continuation of the book. I still wasn't thrilled with the mechanics or the vibrant scenery, I enjoyed being deep in the bowels of the Metro and underworld. If I want an open world post apocalyptic game on the surface, I'll just play STALKER.
>>221395361train to bussin'
>>221396511>>The problem I think is focusing on the outbreak part would just be too long and slow if you wanted to do it realistically.>This is why they should do some random series or movie and have it start out as your standard drama with slight hints there's something going on in the background and then half way have it turn in to a zombie outbreak.That's exactly what Shawn of the Dead does!!!FACT!!!
>>221394172Yeah. The opening is the best part of Dawn of the Dead IMO. The "things are falling apart but haven't fully collapsed yet" part is the most interesting part of apocalypse movies to me.
>>221407281Fear the Walking Dead was great for that, up until the show shit the bed when that fuck Gimple took over for season 4. You can see the writing quality disappear immediately.
>>221407309That show fucking cratered once the johnny depp looking dude got killed off I cringewatched it and I couldn't believe how fucking terrible it got later on. Like unironic spanish soap opera levels of retard writing. They also had an entire episode with a baby crying. At that point I guess they were trying to see how much of a middle finger they could give people
>>221407457Yeah that's the Gimple jump off point, apparently it was the actors demand to be killed off since he wanted off the show because it changed so badly. So much potential and they just swapped the showrunners and writers just to make it Wlaking Dead 2.0 (which itself was already in deep ratings trouble).
