003: Zombies!

ZOMBIES
For those of you who are currently preparing for the zombie apocalypse that may coincide with the end of the world according to the Mayans, you may be more sad to know that the next big zombie movie is coming in 2013. June of 2013 to be exact. For the other who just believe in z-day, you had better watch this trailer and get all excited. Zee Trailer, watch it you know you want to.

In the zombie culture there is a lovely chart telling you just how fucked you may be depending on what type of zombies is plaguing your planet.

Large sized because I believe scrolling less cumbersome than clicking a picture to make it readable.

As you can see from the chart, fast & smart zombies are the most dangerous. World War Z definitely has the fast zombies, smart though, I wouldn't know. At first when I watched the trailer I was very confused as to what the threat was in the opening car scene. As the trailer progressed I realized how freaking scary the way the crowd of zombies moved really was. Like I might have nightmares. Forever. The fact that Brad Pitt is a lead role makes me happy, if not excited. I haven't seen him in anything that great recently and let's face it, if you're that famous you have to do a zombie flick or your acting career was a sham.

Other great zombie movies:
Zombieland (2009)
Shaun of the Dead (2004)
28 Days Later (2002)
28 Weeks Later (2007)
Resident Evil (2002)
(sort of: there is controversy as to mutations of the subjects of this movie having its own category of monsterdom. Not quiet zombies but good enough.)

Resident Evil: Apocalypse (2004)

Resident Evil: Extinction (2007)



Resident Evil: Afterlife (2010)


Other zombie movies period:
Quarantine
Planet Terror
Night of the Living Dead
Evil Dead
I Am Legend
Dawn of the Dead
Anyway here is the rest, thanks Wikipedia...

IMDB is dating the release sometime next year, 2013 in June. Although the 'best by' expiration date of the world is ending, well, before that, we can hope that just like canned food (since we all learned Twinkles have an expiration date, oh wait, Hostess doesn't exist anymore), we will all stay good for a few years after that in order to see this movie come to fruition.

Side note

On a side note I've been sick all week and working on an intense project so I haven't had a chance to really do much research of awesomeness. This is actually a drafted post from like...forever ago. Sorry guys. I did play some Bioshock though. I got ganked by the lady in the ceiling, just like I'm getting ganked by life right now.
