I mean I was being somewhat hyperbolic but I do generally find the Hollywood depiction of zombies pretty uninteresting.

The Haitian voodoo zombies from which they are derived are much more creepy/interesting to me.

Also that movie was super hyped up to me by a friend who was traumatized by it as a kid so maybe the disappointment when I finally watched it skewed my opinion of it somewhat. The story of him being traumatized by it was infinitely more compelling than the actual movie to me.
