Step 13: Watch Zombie Shows

If Canada's preparing for the Zombie Apocalypse (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ueBZuZAoglE), then we need to be preparing too! (And no, I'm not just now hearing about this awesome video - I saw it when it first came out, it just goes really well with this blog. :) )

A great way to prepare is by watching informational videos. Some titles that I currently find very helpful are "World War Z," "The Walking Dead," and for all you girls out there, "Warm Bodies." Each have their own unique ways of staying one step ahead of the flesh-eating mob, and by watching all three you'll be prepared for any type of zombie that might pop up, whether they're the result of chemical warfare, an airborne virus, or an irate-radioactive-monkey (10 points to the person who can tell me which show that quote came from).

Then there's also the classics. The only ones I can really vouch for in the classic category are "Dawn of the Dead" (the original and the re-boot). There's also "Night of the Living Dead," "White Zombie" (starring the original Dracula), and "Army of Darkness." They've made some lists, so they must be pretty good.

And of course there's a whole slew of zombie flicks in between, with the stories running as serious as "Resident Evil" to as funny as "Shaun of the Dead" or "Zombieland." Heck, they've even got kid movies with zombies in them (though I wouldn't quite classify "Paranorman" as a zombie flick, the dead do rise in this film).

So my question to you: What's your favorite zombie movie?
And my challenge to you: Go see "World War Z." It was awesome! (I really really like "Warm Bodies" too, but that's definitely more of a chick flick, so boys, you've been warned!)
