Some of my favorite scenes...
I've been going through YouTube trying to find some of my favorite scenes from my favorite zombie and horror movies. I think I've complied a decent list.
CONTENT & LANGUAGE WARNING...there are some gory scenes and some language that some readers may find offensive.
Dawn of the Dead (2004) - This is one of the first scenes in the movie. The little zombie girl coming in the bedroom is just great. Just before this scene you see the main character driving home after work and stopping to see the little girl (not a zombie at that point) while pulling into her driveway...the just a minute or two later, you see this...
Dawn of the Dead (2004) - This is the title sequence, I guess that's what you'd call it. The song is "When the Man Comes Around" by Johnny Cash. The actually comes after the scene with the zombie girl. The song sets up the movie, if you ask me.
Evil Dead II - Bruce Campbell is one of the most underrated actors around. He is the King of B-list actors. This movie was directed by Sam Raimi (who directed the Spiderman trilogy, which Bruce Campbell has cameos in).
Night of the Living Dead (1968) - This movie is now in public domain. So...rather than pull a couple scenes...here is the whole movie.
Shaun of the Dead - SOTD parodies many zombie and horror flicks. This scene comes after Shaun and his friends have made there way through their neighborhood and to the local pub, the Winchester.
The Exorcist - I confess...I didn't see The Exorcist until it was re-released when was 20. This scene did not appear in the original version of the film, but it freaked me out.
Dawn of the Dead (1978) - This clip is from the original Dawn of the Dead. A biker gang had stormed a mall where the four main characters had been living during the crisis. The zombies have their revenge.
Comments
That opening scene in DotD(04) was the creepiest I'd seen in a while. I left the movie on my tivo for a few weeks before I decided to go back and watch it.
I did like the credit sequence though.
