Zombie movies have long been a mirror for society’s deepest fears—consumerism, pandemics, the loss of identity. From George A. Romero’s Night of the Living Dead to modern hits like 28 Days Later and Train to Busan, these films evolve with the times, each wave bringing a new metaphor. They’ve become more than gore and jump scares—they’re commentary wrapped in decay.
Some stand tall as genre-defining classics, like Dawn of the Dead (1978) or the frenetic World War Z. Others, like House of the Dead or Zombie Strippers, shamble into the "so bad it’s good" category (or just bad). Still, love them or laugh at them, zombie flicks continue to gnaw their way into pop culture, always hungry for something new.
Whether fast or slow, brainless or sentient, zombies remain cinematic powerhouses—reminding us that the real horror might be what’s left of humanity.
