I created this blog to review the zombie movies I've seen. There are a ton of them!! Some that suck, some that are really good and everything in between. This list will grow slowly. You'll probably see George A. Romero's name alot in this blog. Why wouldn't you? He's the "Godfather of all Zombies." I'll probably summarize each movie and then rate it somewhere on a scale of 1 to 10. There's really no rhyme or reason to my ratings scale. I may rate something really high or really low and then rate something similar exactly opposite. There may be some small thing about a movie that I don't like that might bring a rating down. The reviews are set-up with my most recent review on top, and the oldest at the bottom. Anyway, let's get started...

Rammbock

This little film from Germany starts off with Micheal going back to Berlin to see his ex-girlfriend.  Micheal is hoping he can repair their relationship.  Micheal arrives at her apartment only to find a plumber and his apprentice.  Suddenly, the plumber jumps up and tries to bite Micheal.  Micheal and the apprentice (Harper), push the zombie plumber out of the apartment and barricade the door. They look out the window to see that even police officers are trying to bite people.

This film was only an hour long.  The story was slow moving.  But, in a good way.  The special effects were great.  I shortened this review due to the fact that this film was only an hour long.  The lone paragraph above is half the film.  I don't want to give too much away, because something happens to Harper, and he  discovers a new way to fight zombies.  At first I wasn't cool with it, but then I figured that no movie has ever done it before, AND it is possible.

The film does have two flaws. 1. They use sedatives to delay an infected person from turning. I just didn't like that.  2. It's in German with English subtitles.  The film actually scared me.  I looked up Rammbock, and the English translation is battering ram.  When you watch this one, keep that in mind.  The homemade Rammbock saves Micheal & Harper while almost getting them eaten.  On a scale of 1 to 10, this one gets a very solid 9.
