Instead of cramming every review into one mammoth review, this year we'll take it one flick at a time, with this little opener stuck at the top of each one.

For the last of these 8 Films to Die For, I chose to save Zombies of Mass Destruction. The general idea of zombies -- some form of infection spreading at a lightning pace and causing people to become animated corpses with an appetite for human flesh -- is an almost fail proof one. [...]
