9. Dance Of The Dead (2008)
Dance Of The Dead is a much more simple film. Its more of a typical zombies assaulting the town scenario, but theres a certain lightheartedness to it, which would come as a relief after watching Deadgirl and helps separate it from many other more typically grim zombie films. It combines zombie horror and teen comedy in a really fun, youthful way. Even the zombies have this slightly exaggerated, almost cartoonish look to them which enhances the mood. The film also has some fairly sympathetic characters throughout, but the highlight is definitely a garage band full of stoners who prove surprisingly useful in surviving the night via the power of rock and roll. Its a hilarious concept, and one that I wouldnt mind seeing borrowed. While perhaps light on genuine scares, Dance of the Dead is a fun diversion that manages to stand out despite its more generic plot.
