Top 3 zombie flicks!

POW!
My top three are very similar to yours, Robert!

Braindead [Dead Alive]
Night of the Living Dead [I love the original ending but have to admit I slightly prefer the remake]
Return of the Living Dead 3 [I know it's wrong, but there's something sexy about the main zombie lass, despite all the crap stuck in her]

I would put Shock Waves in the top three but it's juuuuuust pipped at the post :D

Would Evil Dead 2 count as a zombie film?  I can't remember if they're zombies or just possessed.

Dawn AND Dawn (78/04 both)
Night of the Living Dead (original and remake as well)
and oh man, I only get to pick one more?!!?!?
Then for this morning it would be Zombi 2

Dawn and Day original
Dead Alive

I like Land and Diary too,  I think they don't get enough credit

Grrr...not fair there is only three.  It makes things rather limited for me but anyway...

Dawn of the Dead (I am counting both the original and remake as one, so nyah!).
Day of the Dead (I am NOT counting the remake here...I can't even bring myself to watch it).
Shaun of the Dead...I can't help it, I just crack up every time I see this movie.

For me...

Day of the Dead (original. Remake was ok, but it was basically just using the original's name to sell.)
Quarantine (AH-MAZING)
28 Weeks Later (I'm sorry, it's... just yeah.)

Yeah, 3 really limits the choices.  I feel like Fulchi's Zombie should be on my list too.

POW!

Return of the Living Dead 3

-reverendaustin

Nice to see return 3 gettin some lovin....

Okay.... Mine in no particular order

Day of the Dead (I just think this is romeros BEST)
Children shouldnt play with dead things (Hokey, Hackneed, and shitty dialogue, but the overacting and the ending just give me the zombie shivers)
Return 3 (Its a huge departure from the series, ya, but thats what I liked. A solid horror movie, great gore, some good acting {man I loved Riverman} and a well scripted love story thrown in to boot)

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Honorable mention

Mulva: Zombie Asskicker (I know Im in the extreme minority here, with maybe only Doc liking it besides me)
Poultrygeist: Night of the chicken dead (Who wouldnt love a chicken zombie musical)
Hide and go Creep (man, that movie is just funny)

I'll just throw three good ones out there...

Aautomaton Transfusion...cheesey but creative
Dead Snow...Nazi zombies!
Zombi 2...Awesome!

Ha!  Children Shouldn't Play with Dead Things.  Gotta love that movie.

apparently Bob Clark, director of Children was working on a remake before he died

Romero's Dawn of the Dead
The Dead Next Door
Reanimator

original dawn of the dead
zombi
and....hmm....
i hate going with newer flicks but shaun of the dead.

honorable:
night of the living dead
*[rec]
dawn reamake

Night of the Living Dead [I love the original ending but have to admit I slightly prefer the remake]

-reverendaustin

I agree that the original ending was better.  I also like Barbara's catotonic state in the first one.  It seemed more realistic to me.

Both Dawns (thanks Eric) but 04 before 78.
Shaun of the Dead.
And
28 Weeks Later too. *High 5s Kody*

I also prefer Return 3 over the other sequels.
Oh oh and Stag Night of the Dead just cos I met them all!!! LOL.

but fred, the infected in 28 days later arn't zombies.

they're infected not infected

THEY ARE TOO ZOMBIES!

*beats junkenstein with a zombie*

:P

They are nu-zombies, like the ones in *rec which I notice you had in your Honourable Mention list...

HA!

LOL, I know that the debate will, cough, rage on about the status of infected types but I class them as a branch in the big zombie tree. Remember that original zombis were still alive too....

OO! OO! Here's mine
Shaun of The Dead-I LOVE this one!!!
28 Weeks Later--pretty disturbing
Dawn of The Dead--the remake (seeing a zombie woman give birth to a zombie baby?!?!? GAH!) FRIGGIN' NASTY! lol!!!

The so-called zombies in REC and 28 Days are NOT the living dead. The use of zombie is more a metaphor, a marketing schtick and nothing more.

My .02 cents
