5. Zombieland - This movie felt as if someone played Dead Rising for a month and then decided to make a movie
4. Night of the Living Dead - The classic zombie movie
3. Shaun of the Dead - Hilarious
2. Dawn of the Dead (remake) - It brings the zombies about one minute into the film and doesn't stop after that
1. 28 Days Later - Just a perfect zombie flick

When it comes to zombie movies, I'm definitely into the more recent offerings. The old movies don't do much for me.

Yeah, I'll watch the older one and they just don't terrify me in the same way the newer ones did.

Dawn of the Dead is a perfect example.  The original zombies just weren't threatening.  When the survivors can just casually bump a zombie out of the way you really have to stop thinking about the movie and start wondering why the zombie apocolypse actually happened.  In the new one, they're still slow but these ones are at least threatening.

Now with 28 Days Later and the fast zombies, those just scare the piss out of me.  When I'm watching a zombie movie I like pretending that stuff actually happened and I could imagine a zombie outbreak from 28 Days Later actually ruining everything in its path.
