While not a fan of the genre I do like "Shaun…" and "Zombieland" for the different cultural views. |

Night of the Living Dead. It scared the crap out of me as a little kid. |
| Hafen von Schlockenberg | 22 Oct 2017 1:56 p.m. PST |
Heh. Did the same to me,at age 21. Still the most effective "modern" type zombie movie. For the traditional voodoo type, "I Walked With a Zombie" (1943).

Night of the Living Dead (original; still the scariest movie ever made!)
Dawn of the Dead (original)
Dawn of the Dead (remake — they're both very good!)
Undead (2003) For side reading, here is Roger Ebert's 1968 review of Night of the Living Dead, (or rather his audience review):

miniMo--thanks for the link--interesting reading,especially for the lack of an "out" for the kids. OT,but reminds me of an interview with William Cameron Menzies about this film:
When asked about the visible zippers on the backs of the minion suits,he said he did it deliberately, to give scared kids an "it's only a movie" escape hatch. Considering the whole film was targeted directly at a child's deepest fears,a wise move. |

The original "Night of the Living Dead". |

The first zombie movie I saw in a movie theatre (first run) was "Return of the Living Dead". Great quotes:
"send more paramedics"
"send more cops" Plus, Linnea Quigley – ahem. |

Pretty hard to make one better than Romero's original trilogy. My fave has to be the long (director's?) cut of Dawn of the Dead. |
reports from the final California Gen Con...
