Land of the Dead

hear me out, partly nostalgia bias (I think we had the VHS), but rewatching this several times made me really connect with the zombies. I know it's not a deep story and often considered a filler spinoff of the series, but I love the slow pacing and not many movies show zombies with character development. this makes me wanna play the game now

Return of the living dead. There's definitely much better ones, but this is my favorite.

Train to Busan. By a mile. Best zombie movie hands down. I’ll die on this hill.

Honourable mentions:

OG Dawn of the Dead is special and will always hold a top spot.

28 Days Later & 28 Weeks are both top notch.

And I’ll catch heat for this, but World War Z is an excellent zombie movie. And I say that as a fan of the book who is disappointed we didn’t get a faithful adaptation. But if you take the movie as a stand alone, unaffiliated, zombie flick, it’s better than just good.

I love and appreciate the classic Night of the Living Dead, but 28 Days Later is my favorite, followed by Shaun of the Dead.

The Brits make a good zombie movie.

Shaun of the Dead

Everyone had their own ideas for zombie movies but to me zombies are very campy so my vote is Zombieland.

Weekend at Bernie’s II

Ooooo, if I sit and think about this one, I'll be completely unable to settle on a single pick, so I'm just going with my knee jerk reaction. Return of the Living Dead perfectly hits the intersection of comedy and horror that I like out of my zombie media.

The original Dawn of the Dead, with Night of the Living Dead, Braindead, Fido, Reanimator, Black Sheep, and Cemetery Man all being close contenders.

Braindead/Dead Alive UR or 28 Weeks Later.
