Zombie movies are filled with some of the most amazing gems of wisdom ever produced. Some of them are intelligent witticisms that make you laugh ("The first rule of Zombieland: Cardio. When the zombie outbreak first hit, the first to go, for obvious reasons... were the fatties"), sometimes they make you think, and sometimes they bring you full circle.
One of my favorite personal quotes is from a speech in the 2004 version of Dawn of Dead:
Hell is overflowing, and Satan is sending his dead to us. Why?
Because, you have sex out of wedlock, you kill unborn children,
you have man on man relations, same sex marriage.
How do you think your God will judge you?
Well friends, now we know.
When there is no more room in hell, the dead will walk the earth.
I love this quote because the quote itself is a quote from the original version of the movie made in 1978 and the speech is given by that versions star- Ken Foree. You would never know it if you haven't been exposed to both versions of the movie and it is a nod to the great George A Romero who wrote the original screenplay but had absolutely nothing to do with this remake.
What is your favorite quote?
