What is your favorite zombie movie? My favorites is Return of the living dead (1985), dawn of the dead (1978), and Night of the living dead (1968).


I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence, or insanity to anyone, but they've always worked for me.

Now that's hardly fair ask what someone's favorite zombie movie is and then list 3 for yours!!  All the above plus Day of the Dead, Zombie, Shaun of the Dead, Cemetery Man, etc., et al.

My personal favorite is "Night of the Living Dead".

I live in Louisville, KY --or what's left of it after that nasty zombie incident and resulting nuclear strike--so "Return of the Living Dead" for me!

Toss up between the original Night of the Living Dead and Dawn of the Dead. But you can't go wrong with either!

As did I, for the first 20 years of my life.  But I currently rank DEAD ALIVE higher than ROTLD, due solely to the preacher; "Stand back, son; I kick ass... for the LORD!!"

For newer fair, most is crape, but DANCE OF THE DEAD and FOREST OF THE DEAD were quite passable, as low budget films go, and of course QUARANTINE was decent. 

I may be the only person alive that liked DIARY OF THE DEAD, but I claim that title proudly.  It's becoming more and more difficult to do zombies without making a ZOMEDY, which I think was the problem with LAND OF THE DEAD.  I laughed more during that film than I did in ZOMBIELAND (which is not a slam against ZOMBIELAND; I love that one, too).

Honestly, I love them all, including those films that even *I* think are terrible. ANY reason for the shambling, hungry dead is a good reason.

However, I continue to look to the original Night- and Dawn- as my favorites, having the deepest impact, farthest reaching influence and longest, strongest hold of my imagination.

Those were the two that introduced me to the concept (hell, they created, they were the concept!), and scared me in that perfect "now I must see it again!" way... so my fondest loyalties lay with those two films.

I love them all though, seriously. Top of the heap or bottom of the barrel, bring 'em on... with the sole, angering, nauseating exception of that crime against horrordom, the "30th Anniversary Edition" of NOTLD.

'Nuff said.
