ABOUT THE FILM
Chernobyl Diaries is an original story from Oren Peli, who first terrified audiences with his groundbreaking thriller, Paranormal Activity. The film follows a group of six young tourists who, looking to go off the beaten path, hire an “extreme tour” guide. Ignoring warnings, he takes them into the city of Pripyat, the former home to the workers of the Chernobyl nuclear reactor, but a deserted town since the disaster more than 25 years ago. After a brief exploration of the abandoned city, however, the group soon finds themselves stranded, only to discover that they are not alone… (Warner Bros.) This film is rated R.

I’ve always been partial to Night of the Living Dead! And all the spinoffs!

“There coming to get you Barbra”… Famous words that scared the day lights out of me so many years ago and still to this day prevent me from watching the original “Dawn of the Dead”. What a great movie it was…. Zombie galore…….
Ryan Ravitz
I love the movie zombiland
Lempo4
All time best Zombie show is The Walking Dead!!! A movie needs to be made!!!
m0sh
I love the Resident Evil movies, probably mostly because of Milla Jovovich.
The best thing I love about zombie movies is how they explore those tiny nuggets of joy from depopulation – driving any car you want, taking whatever you want at the store, staying at Bill Murray’s house.
Justybear96
One of my personal favorites is 28 weeks later. That is my favorite because it did the one thing most other zombie films can’t make you do, and that is to scare the living daylights out of you! It’s a very gory, suspense filled zombie movie with top notch actors and one amazing director. Most zombie films that are out, or that are coming out always fail to actually terrify you, 28 weeks later will put you on an emotional rollercoaster of fear throughout the entire film!
Chris Giroux
Shaun of the Dead and Zombieland. I like a little humor with my decay.
Scutia51
I like good old Frankenstein.
David301977
Hands Down! My Favorite Zombie Series is the walking dead! I also loved the orginal night of the living dead! David Vail David301977@Gmail.com!
Reelybored
The Walking Dead takes the cake. Just read comics last month (may have spoiled it for myself though, but it was worth it 🙂
Lalalauren
28 Days Later!
EVERYTHING about that film was amazing.
Reelybored
Yes, still waiting for 28 Months Later or whatever the next installment would be 🙂
Donald Bush
Dawn of the Dead
My favorite zombie movie is the classic DAWN of the DEAD made in 1978 and directed by the “zombie master” George Romero. The film did a good job showing a zombie epidemic; its effects on society and the mass hysteria zombies’ cause.
klz
Night of the Living Dead STILL haunts me…….
kristy duprey
Favorite zombie movie is Shaun of the Dead, it’s hilarious!
Carl Wheeler
Dawn of the Dead (1978) was a movie that my parents took me to see in the theater. I believe that I was in the neighborhood of 10 years old at the time I saw it. The best (or worst) part of it is that they took me to a midnight viewing and it was playing in a mall. Wow take about scary. It was well worth it.
Lopez Kristina
My fave Zombie flick is Shaun of the Dead. Hilarious, gory, and I enjoy the respectful nods to all the good zombie movies that came before.
Marilynn Reese
“Night of the Living Dead” is my all time favorite zombie movie. I remember seeing this movie when it opened in October 1, 1968 and wondering if it was going to live up to all the hype. George A. Romero directed this film, and it was one of the most terrifying films I had ever seen. The movie was the first of its kind, and the graphic killings by the zombies just ran chills down my body. I was so scared. I was a sophmore in high school, so the movie freaked me out. That film started my love of zombie movies on the big screen and on television. George A. Romero is one of the best horror film directors.
Rita Broils
My long time favorite ‘zombie movie’ is: Night of the Living Dead!
Scott Greenlee
I’m not huge into Zombie movies because they usually don’t have a good back ground on why they were actually turn into zombies. They just turn with no real explanation. I’m excited about this one because it provides a real incident that explains why there are zombies in this situation. History and zombies. I like it and can’t wait to see it.
Jackie C.
“dance of the dead”, it took 10 years for this movie to get made. Its not just a slash and gash zombie flick. It’s really a movie entirely based on underdogs becoming heroes. The makeup is great, the comedy is perfectly on par. Who doesn’t love a story about the Nerds who save the day & get the girls?! It incorporates so much that we have already seen in traditional zombie movies, but it’s fun from start to end without being just a comedy. This movie is the whole enchilada plus a little postmortem love sprinkled on top.
Chelle
The Walking Dead is the best ever Zombie movie, even if it is a series, just love it!!!
Also love Shaun of the Dead.
Tigerfanforlife
I liked Zombieland so funny! Loved how Woody had to have his Twinkies!
Robert Martinez
NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD (1968) I saw this film on cable TV at 3 am. A black & white independent film. A group is trapped in a rurl farmhouse is attacked by zomies. One by one are killed during the night except one, a blackman who lives the night thru only to be killed by the posse mistaking him for a zomies. WOW What a great story.
Toni
I really liked the series, The Walking Dead. I waited every week just to watch.
fortfied
Evil Dead 2. Bruce Campbell rules.
gary burbrink
“Night of the Creeps” Got alien slugs on the brain? The corpses in
this crazy, freewheeling cult film are reanimated by extraterrestrial
mollusks who direct the zombies to, ironically, one of the places you’re LEAST LIKELY to find BRAINS, a sorority house. Absolutely loved this one!!!
Savvy Beotch
My favorite Zombie Movie is Return of the Living Dead from 1985. It was my first viewing of a zombie movie and it hooked me. It was recently releasaed on Blu-Ray and you know I got it ASAP. I am a huge fan of the genre though. Dawn of the Dead, Land of the Dead, Etc..Huge Huge Huge fan. Even some of the low-bedget ones like “Zombies of mass Destruction”. Hilarious and yet it worked. Even Redneck Zombies worked an a small level because it was written so badly it was hilarious.
william
I like any of the Resident Evil series since it reminds me of the video game.
Rick M.
I grew up near a city that was literally contaminated with radium…really (search for “Radium City” for a PBS documentary about the city). After seeing this video as a young adult, I often thought if any of my friends would become zombies from the radium. I can just see them now trying to knock down the door my high school, bypassing all the ‘great’ cafeteria food and going directly for a tasty classmate . Kind of like the 2008 non-blockbuster, “Zombie High School”. The movie’s budget a mere $250.00…yes, that is two hundred fifty dollars. It never made it to to the theaters, but if can be found on You Tube if you want to see a interesting amateur zombie movie.
Rick M.
I just thougth of a great zombie movie, which also just happens to be musical that I experienced Detroit’s City Theatre last year….Evil Dead. I was wearing white that night so I stayed out of the splatter zone
iceman821
My favorite zombie movie is “Braindead” aka “Dead Alive” that came out in 1992 and was directed by Peter Jackson.
Louis
Zombieland was entertaining, and I like Woody Harrelson and Jesse Eisenberg.
BigD
Dawn of the Dead was one of the scariest movies I’ve ever seen, and it had great action also
