10 Awesome Zombie Movies You’ve Never Seen (But Definitely Should)

8. The Signal (2007)

thesignal The Signal is probably one of my favorite movies on this list, providing some more untraditional zombie material. The gist behind the film is that a weird signal is being broadcasted through all electronic communication devices and it€™s driving people crazy. The idea seems to be that it exasperates your worst flaws, which results in most people just going on murder sprees with whatever is close at hand. What separates the film from the rest of the pack is that it€™s split into three parts, each with a different director. Despite this, the movie actually works quite well, with the first half containing your more traditional zombie action, the second being somewhat of a black comedy before veering off into some rather disturbing horror (just wait for that pesticide), with the last being some sort of dark romantic thriller. One would expect the film to be inconsistent because of this but each section manages to be effective in its own way. The film€™s editing also tries to give the viewer the feeling that they€™ve been influenced by the €œsignal€ as well. Spooky.
