Best zombie movies: There are certain genres of movies that seemingly manage to get hot from time to time. For example, a movie studio would have to attempt to fail to put together a half-decent superhero movie that was not a hit in theaters as of the summer of 2015.

We are just about on the verge of the third Spider-Man reboot in the past decade and a half. Regardless of how you feel about Spidey or the latest actor who will be playing that role, nobody can deny that there are good reasons for why we continue to see these franchises developed each decade. They draw fans to theaters, even if the movies themselves are more missable than they are instant classics.
At the other end of the movie spectrum are the genres of films that continue to be hits no matter what is going on in popular society and in the world, in general. Zombie movies are right atop that certain list of films. For whatever reasons, movie goers just cannot get enough of the idea of the undead rising up and overtaking society before a gang of misfits join together to fight their enemies. Maybe, just maybe, viewers are looking for inspiration on how they should react when the so-called “zombie apocalypse” hits the real world; you know, if you believe in that sort of thing.
Perhaps the best part about zombie movies is that they often manage to conjure up a variety of emotions. They are obviously meant to strike viewers with fear via what have, over the years, become memorable scenes. In some cases, different points of zombie movies are, intentionally or not, downright hilarious. The best zombie movies ever made are not movies that are only intended for Halloween season or for when you want to enjoy being spooked along with friends. They are, in their own ways, classic films that should live on for generations after they were first introduced to awaiting audiences.
10. I Am Legend (2007)
This is the first movie on this list that might irk some “purists” who love zombie movies because the supposed zombies are actually infected humans that have survived after doctors and scientists dared to believe that cancer could be cured with one vaccine. Will Smith was tasked with carrying the bulk of the film on his own, a job he completed while showing the human sides such a character would exhibit in real life. I Am Legend includes one of the more heartbreaking scenes you will find in a zombie movie (the dog), not to mention multiple available endings that both manage to give hope for the future.
