Zombie movies are like pizza and sex. Even the bad ones are pretty dang good.
Having said that, I really can't decide on a favorite zombie film. Original Dawn for it's characters and story, Night remake for make-up and Tony Todd, Dawn remake for Ving (nuff said). Day for one of the scariest zombie scene's of all time (the elevator coming down, filed with the undead and the men below, whoe realize they have no way out. Brrrrrrr.)
Shawn is certainly a new fave. Good mix of humor and horror. Return is great as well (at least 0ne is, Two was ok and Three sucked rocks).
If you enjoy any of these, may I suggest the excellent comic book "The Walking Dead." It deals more with the people surviving day to day in a world of the undead that on the zombies themselves. Part of the reason I was a little turned off by the Dawn remake was the directors commentary. Every time a zombie got it's head blown off or someone got ate, he'd say, "That's what you want. That's why you came." Sorry dude, but I'm just as interested in the people who are trying to live through the situation, even more so in fact. "The Walking Dead" deals with those people and it's one of the few comic books I read anymore.
