Best Zombie Movies of All Time

Zombie movies are the best. If you go on a date and they don’t like zombie movies, get out. Beneath sheer entertainment, the zombie genre has managed to embody a range of collective societal fears faced over decades everything from consumerism to racism using the mythology of the living dead.
Resident Evil
I will watch Mila Jovovich fight zombies any day of the week. Add Michelle Rodriguez and I’m in a zombie black hole for a month. I’ll even watch movie 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 in the Resident Evil zombie franchise hoping they bring down that Umbrella Corp and its band of un-dead bogies. Jovovich is the lifeblood of this zombie series.
28 Days Later
Written by the brilliant author and screenwriter Alex Garland (see: The Beach, Ex Machina, etc.), 28 Days Later was the first great apocalypse film of the new millennium. Cillian Murphy is expertly cast, the virus plot is foolproof, and MY GOD that opening scene of a hospital patient waking up and wandering the empty streets of London.
Land of the Dead
What happens when zombies can walk underwater!? That’s the premise for this millennial zombie flick and movie No. 4 in George A. Romero’s “Living Dead” series. For those who don’t know, Romero is the Godfather of zombie films. Some of his earlier staples include the original Night of the Living Dead, Dawn of the Dead, and Day of the Dead. This movie is just ok, but better than most of the un-dead dribble being made today. Like, there is a movie called Zombeavers. Zombie beavers, people.
Dawn of the Dead
A reimagining of the 1978 classic, a small group of zombie apocalypse survivors flee to a local shopping mall and try to avoid getting bit. The film takes a big creative departure from the original and it was a good decision. This version feels like its own film, but pulls carefully and thoughtfully from Romero’s original. The acting is solid, the gore is cringy (which you want), and the pace is fast and fun.
Shaun of the Dead
When it comes to zombie comedy spoofs, I’ll play Shaun of the Dead over Zombieland every time. A gang of clueless Brits navigate a zombie apocalypse in a retelling of the quintessential zombie plot: band together, survive, fight zombies. But the film does a tremendous job at honoring the genre while poking fun at its stereotypes.
Train to Busan
A man and his daughter are trapped on a bullet train during a zombie outbreak. That’s the simple version of this perfect Korean zombie film. The full storyline is arguably the most original and refreshing in all the genre, with deep character development and a clear allegory for class rebellion. Recommended by multiple zombie experts.
