28 Days Later is one of my favorite zombie movies...Weeks is definitely much lower on the list.

I'm not sure what my number 1 is though...I always come back to both Shaun of the Dead and Dawn of the Dead though...Shaun for its humor and Dawn for its classic zombie scenario done right.

Dawn of the Dead (the remake) is the best zombie movie ever! 28 Days is one of the best too.

28 Weeks Later was disappointing to me. I find a movie much better when the characters in it are intelligent, and are in danger or challenged, even though they act intelligently. When the characters (or Army) are flat out dumb or incompetent, it ruins the movie for me. I can't identify with them or feel too sorry for them if they make obvious bad decisions.

Now, I don't think that dumb people being in a movie makes it unrealistic, like some critics like to say. There are plenty of dumb people in the world.

Off Topic: After seeing enough horror movies. My friends and I agreed that if we ever find ourselves in a horror movie situation, we are going to proactively kill the dumbest person in our group. Because inevitably, they are going to die anyway, and take several of us with them in their bad decision making. So why not save a few lives and kill the dumb one right away, heh. (We are not being serious. At least I don't think, heh)
