On the subject of zombies though - Whats your favorite zombie film?


mine is Braindead - I't got a scene in it where loads of zombies get maimed by a lawnmower - It's a classic! (it's also directed by the same guy that did Lord of the rings)

Lol, no there wasnt any zombies in it, they clearly copied the name to get more people to watch it.

cool! a zombie porno movie!
was it called "night of the giving head"?

I taped dawn of the dead when it came on channel 5, although when i went to watch it, it turned out to be a porno.

Just to clear the Evil Dead 2 debate - straight from the IMDB

"Often considered to be a remake of the first Evil Dead, however this is not accurate. The rights to show scenes from the original could not be obtained to re-cap what happened, so they recreated the beginning to explain how Ash got to the cabin, a headless Linda, etc."

So there ya go!

I'm sure Teenwolf and Teenwolf 2 must belong on that list...

I had to get my copy of Teenwolf imported from HMV in Australia... the only place in the world that had a dusty copy in the corner of a warehouse. I'd been searching for nearly 2 years to get it. It eventually cost me a little over £20... and 2 days after it arrived, it was on channel 5. Irk.

True It's not really a remake. However it's not really a sequel either. Evil Dead 2 just pretends that the first film didn't exist (which is just as well because it is a bit cr@p).

I'd definatley say Evil Dead 2 was more of a remake than a sequel, they took the best bits out of evil dead and added a bit of humour and some better effects, and most importantly they made it into a damn good film.

He lost his memory at the end of Evil Dead 1, when he was attacked at the end, simple as that

How do you explain theat Bruce Campbell has no recollection of being in woods before and losing his girlfriend to a fiendish death? Has no recollection of waking the dead(ites) and no recollection of ANYTHING ELSE which happens in the first movie?

The film is class though.

Wrong, wrong, wrong. Almost all sequels have the same set of cirumstances, and a lot have the same main character. So are ALL sequels remakes? I think not, eediot
