Basically the only zombie flicks, I liked are those two. Very Happy

Mainly the first.

8 out of 10 dentists prefer zipfero to competing brands(fraich3 and Mutantius)!

Dawn of The Dead both the original and the remake by Zack Snyder.
Wiki wrote:
Dawn of the Dead (also known as George A. Romero's Dawn of the Dead, Zombie internationally, and alternately called Zombie: Dawn of the Dead) is a 1978 horror film, written and directed by George A. Romero. The film stars David Emge, Ken Foree, Scott H. Reiniger and Gaylen Ross. It was the second film made in Romero's Living Dead series, preceded by 1968's Night of the Living Dead, and followed by Day of the Dead in 1985. Dawn of the Dead contains no characters or settings from its predecessor, and shows in larger scale the apocalyptic effects a zombie epidemic would have on society. In the film, a plague of unknown origin has caused the reanimation of the dead, who prey on human flesh, which subsequently causes mass hysteria. Several survivors of the outbreak barricade themselves inside a suburban shopping mall.

And for check out both Night of The Living Dead and Day of The Dead.

REC is a 2007 horror film co-directed by Jaume Balagueró and Paco Plaza. The film was released in Catalonia in November 2007. Balaguero and Plaza previously co-directed the 2002 documentary OT, The Movie. REC was filmed using shaky camerawork.

A must see and it will freak you out!

zombies simply refers to anything brainless that want kill man dead and eat'er FLEESHHH

being a zombie and acting like a zombie are two different things.

Dead Set is one of the best zombie flicks I have seen in quite a while.

I would definitely move that up in my priorities of "must see" for the Zombie genre.
I am a HUGE zombie movie fan. Everyone has pretty much nailed them. But, I just wanted to make sure you didn't pass that one up.

I think you will enjoy it if you like the zombie genre.
Give it time if you don't get into it at the first episode.

Do they only have the first episode? Or... is that release every episode? Confused. There was like 5 different episodes that aired in 1 week.
I'd like to redownload it and watch it in HD because I only saw a crappy Xvid version of it when I watched it.

Edit: Ah i see how they are doing it now with that release. Gonna grab it.

I'm confused a bit too since some episodes on usenet say ep 2-3 and 4-5 ... downloading everything with dead set x264 in the title to make sure Smile

It looks like they put 2 episodes in each release. There were 5 episodes in all.
Except for the first one. It looks like it is just the single first episode.

So, 2-3 is episodes 2 and 3. Etc.
