Zombi
House by the Cemetary
Gates of Hell/City of the Living Dead

Haha. I cant believe someone else has seen Redneck Zombies. Nothing like evil moonshine to fuel the bloodshed.
I never saw Diary but I am interested in seeing it eventually. I kind of figured it wouldn't be that great.
We should just get a general "Horror movie thread". I almost made one several times since horror movies comes up quite often on this board. Problem is that basically every forum has that thread, not sure anyone has much left to say on the subject
Also.. Who here has seen Dead Snow? Opinions? I still need to see it

Haha, I would post in a horror movie thread every day.
As for Diary of the Dead....personally I didn't like it. The idea was okay, but the casting director should be banned from making movies, because the entire cast was complete shit. Not a single likable character in the bunch.
Not only that, but George Romero really fisted the viewer with the social commentary this time. He's known for it, especially in the "...of the Dead" movies, but usually it still plays out naturally. In this movie, it really feels like at any point the actors could look at the camera and say "See...this is bad. Do you get the point I am trying to make in this movie?".
It's just not good. If you want to keep your respect for Romero intact, I would recommend not watching it.

I liked the Dawn Of The Dead remake myself, I found the original to be way too camp for my liking.

You just made my eyes bleed. *cry*
Not saying anything bad about the remake...but Dawn of the Dead and camp are two things that do not belong in the same sentence. Just because something is old doesn't automatically make it campy.

Haha, dude I'm 31, don't tell me about old
Nah, in all seriousness, I just disliked the acting/storyline/zombies in the original. Hated it, in fact. Just because something is old doesn't make it a classic.

In this case, I can safely say that it is in fact a classic.
It's just one that you do not enjoy, which is fine.
I think the correct term would be...Just because it's a classic, doesn't mean everyone has to like it.
(For example, Casablanca is a classic...but I have zero interest in EVER watching it)

The remake is actually quite shit, IMO. All the original movies are.... hah, how do I explain this... just because they put much more effort in the special effects ~20 years ago, it makes them more awesome. I don't like stuff that gets edited so much that you don't actually know what's real or not anymore.
Oh, and Død Snø is awesome.

fair enough, i can totally agree the charecters were forgettable at best, also zombie holocaust, looks good but i got one in another language...
Can't get enough of Night Of the Living Dead (1968 grayscale version ftw grim und glūmy), Dawn Of The Dead and Day Of the Dead. Only the originals make your stomach churn... Seriously, in my opinnion - the remakes are only good for when you have your girlfriend over, or you and your drunken buddies wanna make funny voiceovers (Mute the dvd player, and "voice" the actors).
