<div class="IPBDescription">Looking for reccomendations.</div> I just saw 28 days later and i really liked it. So I'm looking for more movies similar to it, with a sort of Resident Evilish spice to it, thanks.

    Those are what I'd like to call "Bad Zombie Movies."

    Try the Night Series by Romero:
    Night of the Living Dead
    Dawn of the Dead
    Day of the Dead

    I quite liked the Resident Evil movie, actually. Mind you, I'm not a big fan of zombie\horror movies in general, and I haven't played the game.

    I don't remember any "Zombies" in that series. There's a difference between Zombie and Possesed you know.

    I'm sure he's using zombies as a blanket statement. Seeing as there are no zombies in 28 days later. There's a difference between zombies and infected you know.
  • TestamentTestament Join Date: 2002-11-02 Member: 4037Members
    Close enough! Evil Dead all the way up to Army of Darkness are awesome. It deals with the undead, so...
  • UnderDOGUnderDOG Join Date: 2003-04-05 Member: 15221Members
    Not quite zombies, but blade 1 and 2 are both great movies along the same general line.

    I've heard mixed reviews of Underworld, might be worth checking out tho.

    Yup, that's why I hated 28 Days Later for trying to play itself off as a "Zombie Movie."

    Dead Alive. Directed by Peter Jackson <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    28 Days Later. Thought technically they weren't zombies, they did have a zombie mentallity.

    All you need is that mentality to be a zombie.

    DAWN OF THE DEAD! YOU WATCH IT NOW!!!!!!!!!!
    Seriously, this is the best of the zombie movies. It's got a black guy with a big peice of bread, and a scientist with an eyepatch. It is awesome.


    And you could try Zombie, Hell of the Living Dead, Children Shouldn't Play With Dead Things, of course Night of The Living Dead, And Return of The Living Dead 1-3

    In case you can't tell, I'm a bit of a zombie movie lover, and if you're looking for a zombie movie like 28 days later, you're going to be quite dissapointed, because 28 Dasy Later isn't technically even a zombie movie, and most zombie movies are not like it at all.

    28 days is very differant from most other Zombie horror movies yes.
    I'd like to add ReAnimator to the list of movies in this thread, also The Thing (again techncially not a zombie so don't jump down my throat you nutjobs but still a good horror movie with people not being what they seem O:)
  • AllUrHiveRblong2usAllUrHiveRblong2us By Your Powers Combined... Join Date: 2002-12-20 Member: 11244Members
    You could try a little bit of MST3K fun with "The Incredibly Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living And Became Mixed-Up Zombies"

    I watched Night of the Living Dead once....it was on channel 5.Twice actually.But i only saw the latter part,the part where the group of people are trapped in the house.

    And that chemical thing has been over-done to death really.I cant count the number of english or chinese movies ive seen about it.I remember when i was really young.....i watched a damn weird chinese movie....dont know the name....but it was late night TV so i only caught a portio of it.For some reason,a guy is running around with an evil sword stuck in him and the only way to stop him is to pull it out(i gathered this from the way the 2 main characters,average looking guys,kept trying to pull the sword out),but the sword doesnt want to be pulled out and resists.I remember a part where they hide themselves in a moruge(in the containers.Cold huh?),then the possesed guy discovers them,they try to pull the sword out again,almost manage it,and fail(i get the impression it happens a lot).Thats when i stopped watching.

    Thats one of the more interesting concepts.Certaintly more refreshing that the old chemical thing.

    off topic -

    There's zombi astral and zombi corps though. Zombie astral is a soul without a body, the corps is a body without a soul. Corps being french for body (not corpse, I can type properly). Also known as a zombie cadavre.



    Most have been named but repeating them adds value.

    Reanimator. Plus sequel.
    Anything by George Romero.
    Ditto Sam Raimi.
    Zombie Flesheaters, mmm low budget-y
    The Fog, may be argued as a zombie movie.
    Return of the living dead. Plus sequel.


    Sadly most zombie films descend into humour. I have to say that the sequels are usually notorious for this, with the exception of Romero.

    your lucky i saw this thred... you can now speak to the formost leading expert on zombies.... (uhhh that be me)

    films like 28 days later (one i liked) and Resident Evil (horrible) are not really zombie movies... (but im sure you knew that <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo--> )

    anyhow heres the great zombie flims you should be looking for

    Night of the Living Dead (watch the remake also)
    Dawn of the Dead
    Day of the Dead

    Friday the 13 - Part 7 (you all knew jason was a zombie right? and in this one he looks the most zombified <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> )

    Reanimator (pure classic)
    Dead Alive (also called brain dead, *Goriest Movie on the face of the earth, holds the world record for fake blood usage)
    Zombie Flesh Eaters (also called "zombi or Zombie" , Made by Lucio Faluci, The godfather of Gore)
    City of the Living Dead (Aka gates of Hell, Exelent movie that im still trying to find)
    The Dead Hate the Living (another lucio Faluci film)
    Return of the Living Dead (less serious film... but fun none the less Tar Man rules as one of the coolest looking zombies ever)

    well that should get you started let me know if you need more ;p
