The more I look back on DEAD ALIVE the more I remember how insane it was. Comical in its approach much like BAD TASTE, but a lot of fun to be had. Again the bloodiest film ever recorded.

Maybe we need another list, this time for all of the sub-genres of zombie movie - including those which lack zombies like Evil Dead, and those where a character is sometimes a zombie and sometimes something else (ie Friday The 13th.)
Brrrrrrrraaaaaaiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnnnnnnnnsssssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!

Meh, we don't need to come up with sub-genres.  Over-classification isn't what we need.  What we need is to watch more movies like them, regardless...

I mean, the moment we start coming up with the idea that zombies and vampires do the same thing and start considering them in the same genre?  Well that's taking things a tad too far.  I suppose the key defining factor in most zombie vs vampires theory is the fact that zombies are decaying dead, whereas vampires regenerate themselves [I suppose you could say].  But we all know the difference so I don't know why I worry...

Same here. That is the one part of the film that did away with my appetite. Loved every other part of the film but that one scene.

What is extra great about DEAD ALIVE and films before the computer age is that they don't use CGI. The special effects are done the hard way which adds real texture to the screen image no matter how unreal. CGI hasn't been able to do this yet.


KYGOTC

Thank yew so much for bringing that up, Doctor Scott! Ireally dislike as this CGI bull that people have been pulling nowadays. Whatever happened to those glory days when the movie was about how much dammage the monsters could do, not about how "good" they look? Man, it's a damn shame.


On other note, i just got myself a copy of "The Stuff". havent watched it yet. Is that a zombie movie? Is that any good? Is it supposed to be funny?

Yea, THE STUFF is a Zombie film from what I've heard and also read on Andrews Review of THE STUFF. Having seen it myself yet, but I'm adding it to the Zombie Database Poll. 

Also the EVIL DEAD films are staying up as Zombie films. Though most agree that it isn't a Zombie film most feel that it is much in common with Zombie films. Interesting subject though.

Well, from what I recall, it has some things in common with a zombie film; people become infected with some kind of pathogen and then go off on others. Kind of a take on Cronenburg's Shivers, minus the entertaining parts. If you like gross, you may well like this.

BAD TASTE has to go back on the list. It just belongs there even if they are aliens who have taken human bodies.  :smile:

It's actually amazing that Peter Jacksons DEAD ALIVE (Brain Dead) is favored here and yet many who are new fans of his through LORD OF THE RINGS and KING KONG have not heard of DEAD ALIVE.

While we're talking about Zombies let's not forget ZOMBIE LAKE. Many don't think this is a good film, but it's a serious story about a father and daughter divided by death and the lake he was disposed in. A fathers instinct over run his zombie instincts.

You've got to be kidding.

Are you okay tonight? You're not running a fever or anything are you? :tongueout:

Ive never been able to apreciate serious zombie movies. I dont think they work. Waht with all the emotionalness an' all. It duzznt really seem to mix with zombies. For once, i agree with Menard.

I never said I didn't like serious zombie movies, quite the contrary. I was just astounded by the use of the terms 'serious story' and 'good' in the same sentence with Zombie Lake
