I clicked this thinking you posted the 1975 film with George Harrison to watch. Nonetheless, it's nice to see another Zombie film hit theaters, as the last one was Pride, Prejudice and Zombies and that one kind of sucked.

Yeah, but I'm kinda over zombie parodies, already. If not for Woody and Bill in Zombieland, I wouldn't have cared at all for it. Warm Bodies sucked, etc...

When was the last time we had a legit attempt at a genuine zombie flick?

Dance of the Dead was pretty good too. But that was like 2009.

Train To Busan, Girl With All The Gifts and i'm not all the way through yet, but The Night Eats The World is pretty good so far.

I enjoyed it! It’s definitely a bit old school and silly. It’s got a few unexpected 4th wall breaks. But it worked very well.

Yeah, Train To Busan is amazing. But he might be thinking old school slow zombies.

I wound up with no interest in it. Similar to Jason, I'm pretty much done with zombie comedies, except maybe for Zombieland 2. The trailers for this just didn't grab me, like it was a bland parody of zombie comedies that nobody asked for.
