    I thought it was going to scare but it cracked me up instead! It's one I could watch over and over. Woody Harrelson as a gun slinging zombie hunter, yum! What's there not to like?

    The original zombie movie is still the best, NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD. I can still remember seeing it for the first time while babysitting for a neighbor while they went to a halloween party. They got home around 1:30 and being 14 at the time I ran all the way home in the dark afraid they were coming for me. I've been in love with zombie movies ever since.

    Shawn of the Dead was a perfect mixture of horror, gore, and comedy.

    This remake is bloody (and bloody scary), stylish, smart, audacious and edgy, darkly pessimistic yet inflected with touches of deliciously sick humor.

    If you havent read Max Brooks novel, go get it. I was hooked after the first two pages. World War Z is the compilation of short stories from survivors of the zombie pandemic. Lou i am telling you, you will not be dissapointed.

    I love Shawn of the Dead, but the best will always be Dawn of the Dead and its social commentary. I also agree with the comment about World War Z - good stuff.

    I really like Shaun of the Dead as well, but Zombieland just barely comes out on top for me. I really like the pacing of the movie and chemistry between Eisenberg and Harrelson. The 'rules' that popped up on screen were funny (I love the Double-tap rule) and spot on. Great movie.

    Can a video count as a very short movie? I vote for Michael Jackson's Thriller!

    This is a great series on AMC. Creepy and gruesome for a television series...

    Always best if you can learn to laugh at your Zombie problem. The Zombie attack while Queen's "Don't Stop Me Now" plays on the jukebox is one of the all time great Zombie scenes ever.

    There are so many fun movies, & I love The Walking Dead on AMC, but my absolute fave zombie book is World War Z by Max Brooks. Scary, sad, tense, funny, & very human.

    This is a really fine film that I saw that I did not realize was a Zombie movie when I started watching it...it hooked me right away...a lot of zombie movies advance the premise that the humans, as opposed to the zombies, are the real evil force..this movie really pushes that theme to the limit. Very well done.

    A very funny movie told through the eyes of the Zombies. The Zombies think everyone else is affected but when the camera angle changes you see them as zombies. They think they are talking to each other but all you hear is Ahhh Very funny ( wait for the zombie kiss)

    I've just recently gotten on the Zombie band-wagon with the urging of my husband. I made it through all of The Walking Dead graphic novels in a week, so now I'm up-to-date. Guess they are my favorite, since I haven't really read anything else.

    I hope it's not too late to enter this contest! My favorite zombie book so far (since I have not yet read Lou and Ed's) is a novel called The Reapers Are the Angels, written by Alden Bell, published by Holt Paperbacks in 2010.
