KILL
06.30.13 | last good zombie movie was braindead!!! whos IS with me |
Cipieron
06.30.13 | Shaun of the Dead was probably the last good zombie movie I've seen.
Zombieland had a few good moments, but overall was meh.
Original Romero trilogy or bust |
InfamousGrouse
06.30.13 | 28 days later?! |
InfamousGrouse
06.30.13 | Land of the Dead wasn't terrible but Romero has went pretty downhill since, to say the least |
Cipieron
06.30.13 | and diary of the dead was loads better than survival of the dead |
InfamousGrouse
06.30.13 | survival made me want to cry, haven't actually watched diary. things i've heard always made me refrain from doing so. |
Cipieron
06.30.13 | Night of the Living Dead
Dawn of the Dead
Day of the Dead
Shaun of the Dead
Zombi (Lucio Fulci)
Braindead/Dead Alive
^ the only good zombie movies |
BallsToTheWall
06.30.13 | Trailer looked boring. |
Cipieron
06.30.13 | the Israel attack scene was the only cool part of the movie, and you can see that in the trailers |
Cygnatti
06.30.13 | I hate the concept of zombies in general. It's so stupid. |
Uranium
06.30.13 | the fact that zombies dont eat sick people is bullshit |

You could count this as cheating but The Walking Dead should be on there as well |
KILL
06.30.13 | bad taste bitches
pentagon the walking dead started off pretty good but come on it sucks ass now its so fuckin boring |
Cipieron
06.30.13 | i actually love the 2nd season of Walking Dead, haven't seen any of the 3rd season though |
foxblood
06.30.13 | getting so tired of zombies |
Uranium
06.30.13 | "haven't seen any of the 3rd season though"
it's getting worse. dramatic bitches on my fb post about it like it is melrose place or grey's anatomy or some shit. basically, less zombies and episodes full of futile dialogue. |

Lol |
Mister Twister
06.30.13 | I loved it. It was the best comedy I've seen this year. |
Cipieron
06.30.13 | best zombie video games:
Dead Rising / DR2
Dead Island
Left 4 Dead / L4D2
Resident Evil (nothing after 4 though)
Red Dead Redemption: Undead Nightmare
Zombies Ate My Neighbors
Dead Nation
Day Z (ARMA 2) |
Mister Twister
06.30.13 | Does Metal Slug count as a zombie game? Mission two of Metal Slug 3. It should be enough to count the whole series.
Add it to the list now. |
Cygnatti
06.30.13 | It's not so hard to believe that a parasitic species could take over the body an mind of another for its own gain as it already happens in nature. However, the modern incarnation of zombies usually work in plagues. To have microscopic virus or bacteria have complete and total control over the most intellectually complete and developed species had to believe.
But more than that, the way they behave is absurd. The cop out that "oh they're much stronger than humans because they ignore the humans pain receptors" is one thing. But the fact that they seem to be communicating en masse with one another, without ever actually performing any sort of communication, the fact that they never seem to conflict, and they always seem to 'know' where their targets are are simply ridiculous.
And it really begs the question: why humans?! Why can't there be zombie dogs, zombie ants, and zombie birds? Why do they need human brains or human flesh? They are that much different than a mammals brains or flesh, and yet they are never after them. |
RoundOnEndHiInMiddle
06.30.13 | 28 Days Later was actually really good. |
Cygnatti
06.30.13 | Zombies just seem to be just another case of humanity's self-importance. That there are just things that are just out to get us. |
Pennywise_M
06.30.13 | I really disagree with you Cipieron, but you make some good points. I guess i just fell in love with the overall feeling of it. It it does carry a lot of suspense imo, absolutely loved the movie. But yeah another stupid thing, like after a few days they had declared Brad Pitt (his character lol) dead, they just went for it and dumped his family, just like that. That is not logical at all. And again yea, you make some very good points, like the zombies not eating ill folks. It has little logic its true, but overcoming those "little" incoherences will make anyone enjoy the movie better.
That said, i found it to be pretty darn good, but its a far cry from the 28 (...) Later series. |
Cipieron
06.30.13 | @EBRIPREV23 -- i like 28 Days Later (for the most part), but it's not a zombie movie if you want to get technical about it ;) |
sniper
06.30.13 | yeah 28 days later was fucking awesome, and 28 weeks was great too |
RoundOnEndHiInMiddle
06.30.13 | @Cipieron -- Haha, you're right. They're "Infected". Still though, the concept was relatively the same. Those things were so fast, though! I was so terrified when I first saw that movie. |
UnnamedOcean
06.30.13 | I can't believe the movie is getting decent reviews. Maybe I just need to watch it, but the trailers made it look awful. |
Cipieron
06.30.13 | Wait 3 months and Redbox this shit for a dollar. Not worth the movie ticket price |
sspedding
06.30.13 | i lol'd |
Pennywise_M
06.30.13 | Well, i really think that running zombies are ridiculously portrayed most of the times. I mean, its fine to have running zombies but seriously? Running like regular folks, with the exactly accurate, intact biped coordination? That really bothers me. Something that 28 days later could have done better imo. Running zombies are pretty logical though, or at least faster moving zombies. Those passing through the first stage of decomposition, the so called "infected" |
grish
06.30.13 | this is a lot of effort put in to typing about a movie that I could've told you would suck just from the preview |
Mister Twister
06.30.13 | Some of the things that happened, you could just tell they would never happen exactly that way in real life. Why is it that with the plane crash, the only two left alive are also the only two relevant to the plot? It was written around the plot completely. Stuff like that really bugs me. |
Spag
06.30.13 | Never will understand why people think Shaun of the Dead is so good. |
JokineAugustus
06.30.13 | State of Decay is probably my favourite zombie game. |
Cipieron
06.30.13 | Shaun of the Dead is amazing. It works as both a comedy and a zombie film. What's not to like? |
Pennywise_M
06.30.13 | Well yeah raiseshell, from that pov you're definitely right. I mean throwing in another survivor or two in that plane crash would have been good. But as i stand, i am a zombie apocalypse scenario aficionado and really look over technicalities like those when watching a zombie movie. It's all about the atmosphere, the scenario and the acting, which was pretty good imo! |
Cipieron
06.30.13 | the acting was pretty good? |
Pennywise_M
06.30.13 | Most of it, yes. Far from extraordinary, but i really expected this movie to be shit. When movie producers try to make shit like this hit mainstream it usually results in a train wreck.
Oh and Brad Pitt really was great on this, and that trooper girl whose name i cant recall right now. |
Mister Twister
06.30.13 | The jump scares were funny and the suspense was nonexistent. The solution to the issue made no sense, and some things like the Doctor tripping were just too stupid to feel serious. I couldn't tell if it was a suspense movie or an action movie, felt like it was lingering between both and doing neither well as a result.
Also, does anybody even remember the name of the soldier woman? I don't even think it was mentioned. |
InfamousGrouse
06.30.13 | "Never will understand why people think Shaun of the Dead is so good."
ahaha, what, it's the best british comedy of the last decade easily |
Pennywise_M
06.30.13 | Well yeah, there's always that kinda of shit one would expect from a mainstream movie (referring to that part in which they try to pull some laughs when the doctor shoots himself by accident). I just tend to go with it even though stuff like that doesnt really feel right, haha.
BTW Cipieron if i may suggest, i think you should add *spoiler alert* to the list title bro. lol |
balazs
06.30.13 | Half Life pulls off zombies. Also, stalker (the game) has a good explanation and depiction of zombies. Other than that, I can't care for them. |
Pennywise_M
06.30.13 | " "Never will understand why people think Shaun of the Dead is so good."
ahaha, what, it's the best british comedy of the last decade easily "
To be very honest, all the movies starring Nick Frost and Simon Pegg as main characters are completely fucking hilarious. And the dude that produced Shaun Of The Dead is a great producer too! He also did Hot Fuzz and Scott Pilgrim vs The World, if im not mistaken. And those movies are so much fun! |
Cipieron
06.30.13 | if getting bit takes only 12 seconds, the virus spreads super quick.
the time it took for Brad Pitt to cut off her hand wouldn't have stopped her turning -- it would have at least reached her chest by that point
and damn she made losing a hand seem like nothing at all. no screams or anything. just a frown. she really is a soldier /sarcasm |
ViralOblivion
06.30.13 | They aren't zombies but The Last of Us tells the best story out of any zombie/infected storyline I've ever seen. One of the best video game stories ever |
Pennywise_M
06.30.13 | I will play that game, one day.
@ Cipieron, i might be mistaken but i really think she screams as all broke lose on that part.. the sound is cut off though, to have that kinda of "agonizing pain/time stops" feeling |
Cipieron
06.30.13 | you may be right about the screams/sound cut out... but the virus spread speed still doesn't work |
Yuli
06.30.13 | "Girlfriend liked it, but she doesn't know shit about zombies. "
You seem like a cool person! |
Pennywise_M
06.30.13 | True. Yeah huge flaw but oh well |
Pentagon
06.30.13 | "bad taste bitches
pentagon the walking dead started off pretty good but come on it sucks ass now its so fuckin boring"
nahh man, season 2 was kinda boring i admit (the whole farmhouse shit) - but season 3 is amazing. It's full of action and it has a lot more characters |
ViperAces
06.30.13 | who knew lol |
Pennywise_M
06.30.13 | TWD is huge. The characters are pretty interesting, but talking about flaws. Guns without recoil, the
governor's patch changing sides.. Among many others haha |
ViralOblivion
06.30.13 | Season 3 was shit as well and season 2 was awful 4 episodes were good out of 13 the entire season was WHERE'S SOPHIE it was so boring and nothing ever happened
The finale of 3 made the whole season so terriblbe and the second half was so stale compared to the first they killed off andrea because they realized how badly they fucked up her character that's the definition of terrible writing |
Cipieron
06.30.13 | in season 2 i thought the length of the 'search for Sophia' made her inevitable turn-up in the barn so much more tragic. everyone was exhausted after searching for so long.
i dunno, i feel like it worked. i dug it |
ViralOblivion
06.30.13 | The walking dead has zero interesting character I think you're thinking of the telltale game
The game is SO much better than the shitty show |
ViralOblivion
06.30.13 | But she was in the barn the whole time so it felt like a huuuuge waste of time |
Cipieron
06.30.13 | sounds like something Shane would say. And he's dead. |
SitarHero
06.30.13 | Rant is lol. Movie rulz. Definitely best movie of the summer so far, although The Heat was surprisingly tolerable. |
Pentagon
06.30.13 | "The walking dead has zero interesting character I think you're thinking of the telltale game "
IDK, i think Micheyonne, Daryl, and Glenn are all awesome characters. And what happens to Lori holy fuckshit i though it was epic |
JizzInMyPants
06.30.13 | I enjoyed the hell out of this movie. |
ViralOblivion
06.30.13 | I felt zero emotion when laurie died I was like gooood die you stupid whiny bitch all she did was whine and bitch
I feel zero emotion toward any character on that show any character can die
And michonne is fucking lame " I'm not gonna talk for the entire season and be a generic character" sweet good job butchering more characters |
Cipieron
06.30.13 | you can't hate on Rick though
or can you? |
Cipieron
06.30.13 | i would let Rick enter me. for the sake of the Ricktatorship |
ChopSuey
06.30.13 | lmao @ 2
I haven't seen a movie in years |
Cipieron
06.30.13 | hey now, left 4 dead is awesome |
JizzInMyPants
06.30.13 | zombies will never be boring. |
SitarHero
06.30.13 | Warm Bodies is supposed to be good. |
MrElmo
06.30.13 | Left for dead is fucking awesome. Litteraly never heard about "World War Z" ever |
MrElmo
06.30.13 | Also fun fact is that Evil Dead has like 4 or 5 zombies in it and is better than 95% of all the big zombie productions |
ButteryBiscuitBass
06.30.13 | I started watching a ripped copy and it was bent, so i gave ip. Then again Zombies aren't me thing. |
ChopSuey
06.30.13 | zombies may be boring,but they're still better than vampires |
ButteryBiscuitBass
06.30.13 | Agreed |
Cipieron
06.30.13 | Interview With the Vampire is the only good vampire movie... ever? |
Cipieron
06.30.13 | and even that movie left some interesting parts of the book out that would've made it better (albeit a
lot longer too) |
ButteryBiscuitBass
06.30.13 | Maybe Dracula with Keanu Reeves and Gary Oldman...maybe. |
ButteryBiscuitBass
06.30.13 | Lol. I've not even bothered with that! I don't think I can do it.
Aliens on the other hand... |
MeatSalad
06.30.13 | World War Z would've worked better as a TV show, then they could've actually used chapters of the book as episodes. Started playing Last of Us right after I watched the shitty movie though, it cleansed the palette pretty damn well |
InfamousGrouse
06.30.13 | let the right one in was a pretty good vampire flick. no idea how the american remake panned out. probably shit. |
Cipieron
06.30.13 | @MeatSalad -- totally agree with you. It could have just been a good miniseries. A couple episodes comprising each chapter/country. I could totally imagine it in my head. Some collaboration between BBC and AMC |
Cipieron
06.30.13 | @ InfamousGrouse -- oh shit, totally forgot about Let the Right One In. I actually liked the American version better. I felt like it trimmed out some needless characters and kept the story moving. Plus it didn't have that ridiculous 'cat attack' scene... |
MeatSalad
06.30.13 | Then again they'd probably fuck it up just as badly as they've fucked up TWD books |
Cipieron
06.30.13 | hah no doubt |
DotEight
06.30.13 | Glad I saw White House Down instead of that bullshit. I'm so sick of zombie movies, they get worse and worse over the years. |
DotEight
06.30.13 | It was better than this fucking movie. All I have heard is shit about it.
And have you seen either one? |
Cipieron
06.30.13 | lol yes between a terrible zombie movie and Channing Tatum and Jamie Fox make White House boom boom explosion time..
i'd rather stay at home
but zombies wins over those two |
DotEight
06.30.13 | Still would rather watch 2 hours of explosions and gunfights than a zombie plot thats been done 100 times.
But yeah I'd rather stay at home too. |

Mister Twister
07.01.13 | I'm still sad that Metal Slug wasn't added to the list of good zombie games. Mission 2 in the third game should be enough for the whole series to count as a zombie series. It's that damned good.
Let's turn this thread into a discussion of Metal Slug. Please? c: |
Mister Twister
07.01.13 | Age has nothing to do with taste, IMO. People I know that are older than myself are into Call of Duty and whatnot.
Anyways, Metal Slug: Clark's Backbreakers are way too good. You can just run through the whole game breaking backs and being invincible and getting way too many points. |
Pennywise_M
07.01.13 | Metal Slug was the shit m/ |
mindleviticus
07.01.13 | this movie sucked a big cock, but 28 days later was amazing |
MyNameIsPencil
07.01.13 | I liked it, but were there little things about it that kinda bothered me, like the mexican kid not caring about his recently deceased family, though I thought of the concept of the Ill not being attacked to be DIFFERENT but yeah could be better, though in all honestly you did nit-pick... It was a good 7.5 or MAYABE 8/10 |
klap
07.01.13 | "it's one of the only horror concepts that could become a reality so there in lies the fascination"

07.01.13 | I'd def be down but it is a bit ridiculous |
NeoSpaz
07.01.13 | the book is good. |
Mister Twister
07.01.13 | I changed my avatars to Metal Slug stuff. The one that appears in comments is only Fio, since I couldn't get one that was big enough for you to see everybody in the cast, and be able to tell which one is which. Hell, the picture of Fio is unclear as it is, it's too small.
Fio's obviously the best tho |
Azn.

they could've done this so much better |
foxblood
11.01.13 | bald army bitch was hot, everything else about it was kind of crap |
DikkoZinner
11.01.13 | Just watched, yep wasn't good. |
SirDrumsalot
11.01.13 | Agreed. For exactly the same reasons listed. This movie so horrible. Wasn't even worth the 1 dollar redbox rental fee. |
Mister Twister
11.01.13 | why must we discuss this again
no redeeming factors, go watch anything else |
