braaiiiiiinnnnsssss

For the past few years i've had a hunger, an insatiable hunger for brains. Primary viewing those left inside of a zombie skull to be exploded and spill across my television screen. Now after watching a good deal of visual feasts i have decided that i should make a small list with descriptions of each.

Of course the first film that needs to be mentioned is the one that started it all. The original night of the living dead. If you haven't seen it bye now, well you should and the fact that it has fallen into public domain makes it even easier. In fact the whole thing is on google video, while it is a bit slower paced then the rest of the series it is grandfather of the whole genre what else needs to be said?

Next up is dawn of the dead, both versions, you know what? Instead of writing about all the romero films seperately i won't Just watch them they are good you will like them.

Shaun of the dead, everyone's seen this by now. Not much reason to dissect it.

Deadalive by peter jackson, this is definitely one of the best zombie movies to date, the lawnmower, the baby zombie, the kung-fu priest, mother. It's gratuitous amounts of blood, almost slapstick violence, and off sense of humor really made me appreciate peter jackson's other films more then i already did. Also he made a film called bad taste, it's about aliens who work for a faste food joint trying to harvest us humans as food, it should also be given a watch.

Zombi 2, I would watch this for the zombie vs shark fight scene alone, not to mention that thing that happens to that eyeball. I also think that Claudio Fragrasso of troll 2 fame was connected to this somehow, i wanna say writer or something but not sure off the top of my head.

Black Sheep, maybe not zombies per se, but after watching this i can reaffirm my affinity to New Zealand's brand of humor, also sheep should not drive trucks.

Dead Meat, this was the only zombie film i've seen take place in Ireland which is pretty cool.

DeadGirl, this was something else and really shows how fucked up kids are.

Return of the living dead, was a Russo film. He was romero's partner at first but then they split up. Russo had living dead films Romero had dead films. This film was the pinnacle of the living dead series i would make sure to watch this before any other ones in the series like: return of the living dead part two, necropolis, and rave to the grave. The first two are better then the last two, I left out three because i haven't seen it yet.

Mulberry Street Rat People, this was surprisingly good for being titled what it is. Basically present day new york, people turn into rat people, this middle aged guy who boxes and karates(?) kicks the shit outta rat people and runs into his military daughter who returned home from iraq who is coincidentally also kicking the shit outta rat people. While not as a good as some of the above mentioned it is better then you'd think.

Fido, it's basically Leave it to Beaver but with zombies. Definitely a bit atypical for the genre, also noted that the main zombie, Fido (a friendly zombie) is played they Billy Connolly who was el duce in boondock saints.

Planet Terror (the one with the hot chick with a machine gun leg), i should of listed this a bit higher up. It's very fast paced, very funny, very ridiculous and very awesome, just watch it. This was the Rodriguez half of the Grindhouse double feature, the other being death proof by Tarrintino.


That's it for now, i know im leaving a bit out i'll edit this again later; and to think the thing that got me hooked on zombie movies was a case of gangrene.
