9. there's a Day of the Dead remake?
.... anyway... and, is Diary of the Dead out on DVD already?! I want to see it so bad.

28 Days/Weeks Later are Zombie movies, but I think we've had this argument before....

With that in mind, I would recommend The Last Man on Earth, starring Vincent Price. There are loads of early zombie movies, but I can barely separate them in my mind... I remember that there was one that was really good and funny though - just watch every movie from before 1950 with "Zombie" in the title, and you'll see the one that I'm thinking of.

In the Romero vein, I'd recommend one called Severed (also called 'Forest of the Dead', but there's a newer movie that also has that title). It's only a few years old, but I reallly liked it.

I don't know whether or not you'd consider a zombie movie, but probably more so than you would the '28' movies (there's a twist in this one, but there are also living dead..), is an Australian movie called Undead - it's really really good, and you'll be giving yourself a treat if you watch it.

In the Fulci vein, Zombie 3, which he worked on, isn't all bad, but it's certainly no Zombi 2/Zombie/Zombie Flesh Eaters. Hell of the Living Dead is another good Italian one from the same time period - I think both have soundtracks by Goblin, which is always a good thing.

Whatever you end up watching, I'm incredibly jealous - I haven't seen a zombie movie in a long time.... I should get a DVD player.
