El Espanto surge de la tumba(horror rises from the tomb)
In Medieval France a warlock is be-headed and his wife tortured and executed. Hundreds of years later an isolated group of people discover his head buried on their property. Soon it comes back to life, possessing people and using them to commit sacrifices and to search for the rest of his body
Zombie Flesh Eaters its a sequal to Fulci’s Zombi, but this time it takes place on a cruise boat
Quella villa accanto al cimitero(AKA Zombie Hell House) Also a Fulci film
Deranger killer lives in basement of old mansion and pops out occasionly to commit grissly murders that inlude beheadings, ripped throats, and stabbings with a fireplace poker. The killer needs fresh body parts to rejuvinate his cells. He also has maggots for blood.
The Ghoul staring Peter Cushing and John Hurt (you know the elephant man and winston from 1984, also the voice of aragon in the animated lord of the rings)
Peter Cushing stars as a former priest who harbors a dark and horrible secret in his attic. The locked room serves as a prison cell for his crazed, cannibalistic adult son, who acquired his savage tastes in India during his father’s missionary work there. Cushing fears that his son will escape to prey upon the effete guests at his rural English estate during a cross-country auto race.
Elfkin, NEVER reccomend “Resident Evil” to a zombie fan. It’s grounds for disemboweling.
Seriously though, telling a zombie fan Resident Evil is good is like telling a fan of Gone with the Wind that GWTW is a shitty film and that From Justin to Kelly is much better.
If I may suggest a different film, Premutos: Lord of the Living Dead. Gore. Lots of it.
that is what i have on hand and im not going to go to the store. i just was given a 4pack dvd of shitty old zombie films. i tried to watch “the ghoul” but for some reason the dvds dont play sound. soooo i got all jazzed up for nothing. and im going to write these suggestions down and go to the video store tommorrow.
thanks guys!
and IMHO resident evil blows, no offensive to those who liked it but JOHN MULLETS is right. I had a long discussion with someone about dawn of the dead being better than day of the dead today, and tried to get them to go and rent return of the living dead (which is my personal favorite) and he was said “uh i dont really like zombie films” and i went “what the crap, you are gonna tell me that day of teh dead is a horrible movie, but you dont like zombie films anyhow. shut up” all this over shakes at a dinner. i felt like those nerds in the Fandom Menace
Like I said, though, I’m not a fan of zombie movies, I just like that one. What’s wrong with it, too little gore, or too much plot? heh.
And I’ll have to take your word about GWTW being better than Justin to Kelly; I don’t like romance movies, so I’ve seen neither. (well, I’ve seen enough of GWTW to know I couldn’t force myself to sit through the entire thing, but…) They both seem to be likely to inspire eye-rolling, so it’s hard to weigh their merits against each other.
Jeez, 28 Days Later came so highly recommended that I bought the DVD without screening it first. What a wooden, by-the-numbers, pale (if you’ll forgive me) imitation of a zombie movie. Bleah.
If jazz is involved, check out Cronenberg’s Rabid. Whenever it seems to drag a bit, take another solo on that licorice stick.
If, at any point, reflecting on the phrase “Drs. Dan and Roxanne Keloid” fails to make you giggle, it’s time for another instrumental break.
The greatest film I know that just happens to be a zombie film–actually a frequent item on my lifetime topten list–is the Val Lewton-Jacques Tourneur movie I Walked with a Zombie.
To be honest, I’ve never seen it. I have, however, seen quite a lot of zombie films (love 'em) and basically every one will tell you that Resident Evil is a pile of fecal matter and that it only detracts from real zombie movies. I just refuse to watch it, more shit from Hollywood.
Why don’t you tell me why you don’t like zombie movies but like Resident Evil? I’m not trying to start an arguement, I’m just interested. Why does this appeal to you while other zombie films don’t?
Bugger! I didn’t mean to sound like I said every zombie film tells you that Resident Evil sucks. I mean to say “basically every zombie film fan will tell you that Resident Evil sucks.”
Like I said, though, I’m not a fan of zombie movies, I just like that one. What’s wrong with it, too little gore, or too much plot? heh.
