Well, The Crow character was dead, right? I guess that's the criteria they are using to put the movie on the zombie list. But perhaps as horror fans we are more discerning--dead, yes, but what kind of dead: zombie, vampire, ghost, Frankenstein's monster...? And looking at voodoo-based zombies (White Zombie, I Walked With a Zombie, The Serpent and the Rainbow), a lot of times they aren't dead either! So, where does that leave us? :-)

I agree this is an excellent article because it takes a deeper look at the history of our genre; it wasn't all exploitation so much as it was a wink and a nod. I think all 80s slashers eventually became self-aware. You don't release a movie like the final Nightmare on Elm Street that follows the "actors" around as Freddy attacks from beyond the movie set. Scream came on the heels of that movie because it realized how much fun it could be to fall victim to your own knowledge. Shadow of Vampire with Cary Elwes and Willem Dafoe deserves a mention here too. It played on the urban legend that Max Schreck was such a good method actor, he must have been a real vampire. It took that urban myth and said, What if?

It seems like Dans Ma Peau.

La Horde and The Dead are fantastic. I am always amazed when people disagree on those ones.

Agreed 100% percent. Even if you consider Army of darkness a zombie movie, Evil Dead, or Evil Dead 2 should be there first. Thanks for the article.
