I want gore and lots of it.
I actually wrote my thesis on the Romero zombie trilogy and how they reflected society etc etc. 28 days later was really good because it was well directed and the scenes of a deserted London were incredibly freaky and unsettling but, despite the fast zombies which I liked, it took wholesale from the Romero movies.
28 days later did not come first, it rippd off several American films and some of the Italian 'Spaghetti Horrors' like Zombie Flesh Eaters (I think they had fast zombies too).
I still cant wait till it comes out but in a car crash kinda way, that horrible dont wanna look but compelled anyway feeling.
It could be pants if there's no bandits though.

(mar 20 04, 13:07)That's exactly my point. 28 Days Later was a good film despite the 'zombies' being fast or slow. Oh, and most italian zombie flicks kick american ones' asses as for gore and 'insane ambience' goes. Let's take Lucio Fulci for example. His film 'Zombie 2' (here in Spain it was called 'NY Under The Zombie Horror') scares the shit out of everyone who sees it. Truly apocalyptic and disgusting zombie film. Probably my all-time fav.
