Among other horror genres, like vampirism, zombie movies are probably the most watched genres.Zombie movies offer many perspectives on the horrific condition that renders people unable to make conscious decisions.Zombies are in an altered state of consciousness, in which they are in dire need of food.

There are many, many zombie movies that have been released, and more are sure to come.

In 2004, Zack Snyder recreated George Romero's classic Dawn of the Dead.A group of people are trapped inside a Wisconsin Mall, and must survive their grueling situation.With modern day make up and other film necessities, this film is definitely a must-see.
