Horror Movies: Living Dead
built 643 days ago
There has been a minor return to the zombie genre in horror movies made after 2000. The Resident Evil video game franchise was adapted into a film released in April of 2002. Two sequels have followed. The British film 28 Days Later (2002) featured an update on the genre with a new style of aggressive zombie. The film later spawned a sequel: 28 Weeks Later. An updated remake of Dawn of the Dead (2004) soon appeared as well as Land of the Dead (2005) and the comedy-horror Shaun of the Dead (2004).

People seek out horror movies because being scared is a pleasurable act. It makes one feel alive. When you sit in a darkened theatre or living room, you know you’re safe but can’t help but be a bit worried. You may laugh nervously or breathe a sigh of relief. The heart is pumping and the palms are sweating.

As for pure horror, that part in Dawn of the Dead (original) where the biker gets his blood pressure checked is up there. A completely reasonable thing to do in a zombie outbreak.

Some horror films are made in B-movie, made by minor film company. Some (not few) horror films are in public domain (e.g. The Little Shop of Horrors, Night of the Living Dead, The Terror, Suspiria, Embryo)[1]

Being a black person in a horror movie isn't easy. You're rarely the hero, hardly ever the villain, and more often than not you end up dead. But as they say, "When in Rome…die as a Roman," or something like that.
