Just curious to ask, why did you actually think it was good? It was easily the worst zombie movie Ive ever seen, and it didnt exactly work well as satire either (if that was what Romero was aiming for).whycantibelinus said:
I haven't seen it in a long time but I liked the pace of it the different perspective it gave on the zombie apocalypse rather than just "run and scream and shoot" and I guess it was probably just refreshing to me after watching Land of the Dead, which I personally feel is the worst of the series.ultimatechance said:
EDIT: not that great of a reason but that's the best I can come up with right now. Sorry man.
I voted Day of the Dead too. I really like the bit where they chop the top half of that zombie's head off, and it's just lying there, upside down, the eyes are looking around. I also like the clown zombie, and the death of that guy (won't say his name, don't wanna spoil it) who says "choke on 'em!". Brilliant.initialdelay said:

Diary of the Dead was really good, too. It wasn't a screamer like other zombie films, but a lot of it was psychological horror, similar to what Hitchcock directed.

No i got yah, and I can see why now. That whole premise is also what drew me into it, but i just personally thought that it was executed like crap (poor deaths, unexciting or interesting plot, stupid rule of any dead person becoming a zombie, way too much usage of Myspace and Youtube for one film, etc.)whycantibelinus said:
But thats just me.
I wouldn't even say Shaun is a parody and more of a genuine comedy...actually, i'm kind of undecided there.jboking said:
On one hand, there are all those references to Romero's movies and scenes that make fun out of classic zombie tropes wich point towards parody, but on the other, there is not only an actual story but also one that, except for the general concept, is different from any "of the Dead" movie and character development, wich would put it more into the comedy section for me.
Well, anyways, voted for Shaun. If that hadn't been an option, i'd vote on Night of the Living Dead, because even with Dawn of the Dead being a better movie, NOTLD has a truly great classic feel to it.
Day of the Dead,the origional . Litrally from the scene where they get back to the miltary base you can feel the dramatic tension brewing, and even if you havent seen the film you just know things are going to go tits up from there on out
