This really is essential reading.
As for movies well I just have to pick the original Day Of The Dead but I like so many.
Zombi AKA Dawn Of The Dead pt2 (Lucio Fulci classic, splintered eyeballs, Zombie Vs Shark face off which is a great piece of cinema)
The Living Dead At The Manchester Morgue (still going to review this in my horror corner)
City Of The Living Dead (early 80's Eurotrash yay)
The Beyond
Zombie Holocaust
All Romero's Zombie films
Re-Animator
Grapes Of Death ( little known atmospheric film set in the French countryside)
The Plague Of The Zombies (absolute classic Hammer Horror from 1964).
