I didn't see any mention of Max Brooks first book: The Zombie Survival Guide.

I agree with Bart on Zombieland, but it's more quirky IMO, my type of humour ~

I think the classic zombie type movie is dead (no pun intended), they're trying to evolve it, which I don't like much ~ Classic all the way!

Oh, I picked up The Dreadfuls (Prequel to Pride and Prejudice and Zombies), and I wouldn't recommend it, it's terrible!

Hands down the best zombie book I've read is "Day by Day Armageddon" by JL Bourne. Film wise, I'd watch

Zombie Diaries That movie does not have enough press and it is REALLY good. even critical acclaim was bad, but that movie was *** fantastic.

Zombie survival guide is a good read, but I didn't enjoy WWZ at all really. If you want a general post apocalyptic read then "I am Legend" is good, it's nothing like the movie, and better imo.

Cell is about zombies, though they do change near the middle of the book. That book is really good though, I'd suggest giving it a read.

I'm a fan of the same movies as you are so I won't bother mentioning those. (28 days and weeks!)

Lol Flight of the living dead was just awful, same as the Crazies ; ;

I don't know what I was thinking when I downloaded flight of the zombies >.>

Lol Flight of the dead was the cheesiest Zombie flick I've ever seen.

And yeah WWZ is going to be destroyed when it hits the cinema. I hope they never make a movie about Day By Day Armageddon.

I heard an audio version of WWZ. Some stories were kinda of boring but some were great, especially the one with Mark Hamil in it.

Say whattttt lol Really?

I dunno. I always felt weird about audio books.. as far as wwz goes (reading).. the Otaku japanese boy going down each balcony really enthralled me.

Mostly because a few years ago I could imagine his addiction to internet, and actually coming to terms with reality. :3

I stuck it on my iPod and listened to it on the way to work and at work >.<

The Walking dead is coming onto TV in oct.



Trailer from comic-con.

Can't wait for this TV series AT ALL

I'm a huge fan of the comics, and the 28 days later esque story seems enthralling

Really? Quarantine is probably the only movie that even came remotely to scary me in a decade. And stays away from most of the stupidity of most scary movies
you seen 28 Days Later and or 28 Weeks Later? 2 of the best zombie flicks made in the past 20 years IMO
Quarentine was better I think at least for being scary. But yeah there were better at being dramay and making you know actually care about the characters. Though I still laughed my *** off when you saw the chick get beat down with her own gun thru it's nightvision

There is a new anime that came out called "High School of the Dead" and it's pretty damn good. Only six episodes are out at the moment but they should occupy your time for a little bit. I mean, when you mix zombies, lots of blood and gore, and beautiful anime chicks together... well, what could go wrong? lol

This soooo *** much.

It's also a 26 chapter long (so far) manga. Anime is staying true to it so far, with a few extras to fill the episode.
