All right I just saw this for the very first time and I've got only got three words to say:
GREATEST... MOVIE... EVER!
I swear this could have been a video game and it still would have been great, there's just so many things I loved about this movie. It's a definate must-see for anyone who loves zombie movies or horror films and those who love the Resident Evil series.

It was cool, but it didn't seem too much different that any other zombie-horror movie. The virus made them zombies, though the film did exactly call them that, it's what they were. Attack the living, nutty as fruitcake zombies. The "Night/Dawn/Day of the Living Dead" movies where a bit cooler, IMHO.

Yes but they were the crrrrrrazy zombies. Heck if that had been like a Resident Evil movie it would have been the best thing since the original.

Three words IT...REALLY...SUCKED all they did is run around and when the guy was in the hospital why did the zombies not attack him huh well thats what i thought

well the same could be said for Resident evil, I mean why didn't the zombies attack whenever they're in the main hall of a building and such. It's mainly for dramatic effect. Think about it, this guy had a concussion or something like that and he wakes up to find the entire city of London deserted. If that happened to me I'd be pretty freaked out. Then he goes into the church and see's countless bodies lying in the main hall of the church and as soon as he says something he get's the zombies attention thus very RE like. As I said this would have been the perfect video game instead of a movie but man they pulled off this movie nicely.

But you see he was yelling and he set off a car alarm, and NO zombies came!

Once again it was for dramatic effect I mean in a Resident Evil game the player never saw the zombies until they found a zombie and then the entire place would be filled with them.
Also the movie says that the zombies attack at night but they probably woke up because they detected a human being or they would have stayed asleep until nightfall. Then again it was practically night when Jim fled the church from the zombies soooo I'm not sure what to say; I'd say it was around dusk when he entered and he was in there for quite some time. In the ending they show some of the zombies awake during the day but that was because they were on the verge of starving to death
lol as I said perfect video game scenario. Still for a zombie movie it was great. I've watched some of the living dead movies including the original black and white version of Night of the Living Dead and well I thought those were pretty lame but that's because I could point out every little fake thing about the first movie.
When I saw the original black and white movie of Night of the Living Dead, none of the zombies LOOKED like zombies, they looked like regular people who'd been drinking all night. Plus they just didn't seem like zombies at all. Now granted I've seen the original not the new remake version but I'm sure it's pretty much the same thing.
Night of the Living Dead 2 was pretty good at least they made it look like the zombies were actually undead this time. I don't know maybe it's because I've seen too many horror films that it doesn't phaze me or I expect every zombie to be Resident Evil like but that's just how I pictured zombies to be.
Then again I thought Jason vs Freddy was awesome lol still I respect your opinions and you're entitled to them. I just don't agree that's all
