Somebody's list of the top 10 zombie movies

I am not endorsing this list, just mentioning it. As far as I'm concerned, the list is invalid because "Thriller" was listed, which is a music video and not a movie. But it is nice to see he mentioned Re-Animator. (And it was adapted from only one HPL story, Chuckles).

Top 10 brain-eating flicks:
To start, let's agree that zombie movies aren't for everyone.

They're wall-to-wall with corpses, for one thing, and involve gory depictions of spilled intestines, devoured brains, exploding heads and other not-so-niceties.

But they can also run a lot deeper than they're given credit for, and the best serve as commentaries on cultural divides, disease-related paranoia, and mankind's unflappable survival instinct.
I don't know why I've been coming up with so many zombie posts lately. I'm not even really looking for them, they just kind of keep turning up. Hmmm...
