Simon Pegg: ZOMBIES DON'T RUN!

[thehefner]

Thanks Bloo.

Simon Pegg on why Romero-style slow zombies are and will always be superior to Zack-Snyder-style fast zombies.

He makes excellent, thoroughly geeky points. I look forward to referring this to anyone who trashes slow zombies or hold the DAWN OF THE DEAD remake up as better than the original. Depressingly, such people exist.

I want to see the series, but don't think I be able to. Oh well I'm sure it be on youtube later or anywhere else on the web. :)

Simon Pegg makes some good points and make me question liking fast zombies in horror movies. Not all the time, mind you but once in awhile it can work in movies.

Yeah, I'd agree that there is a place for fast zombies, depending on the story. But it has to be the right kind of story. Me, I think WORLD WAR Z is a perfect example of taking Romero's slow zombie genre and taking it to the next level, rather than the DAWN remake. Have you read it? It's really quite wonderful.
