Scare yourself senseless with four of the best zombie films of recent years – thrills, spills and bucket-loads of gore guaranteed!

Slither

A small southern US town is taken over by an alien plague, turning its residents into hideous mutant zombies. This heady mixture of gross-out body horror, pitch-black humour and B-movie pastiche proved to be an instant cult hit upon its release last year.

28 Days Later

A virus that locks those infected into a permanent state of murderous rage is accidentally released from a research facility. Twenty-eight days later, a small group of London survivors find themselves trapped in a desperate struggle to protect themselves from the infected. Danny Boyle’s post-apocalyptic thriller is a modern British horror classic.

28 Weeks Later

Six months after the rage virus has annihilated mainland Britain, the US army declares that reconstruction of the country can begin. As the first wave of refugees return, a family is reunited - but one of them unwittingly carries a terrible secret. The virus is not yet dead, and this time it’s more dangerous than ever.

Shaun of the Dead

We round off the night with another London-set zombie apocalypse, though encounters with the undead are rarely this enjoyable. Edgar Wright’s rom-zom-com is one of the funniest British films of recent years, but also manages to deliver a fair amount of splatter and a couple of genuine scares.
