Zombies:
Slow or Fast?
.
"Hotter" isn't so much the appropriate word - unless you, er, get off on zombies, which, uh, who am I to judge? Oh right, I can judge that, BECAUSE IT'S BONKERS - really I just mean which do you prefer. The classic Romerian flavor of The Shuffling Undead or the Zach Snyder's fleet-footed flesh-hounds? This was inspired by Stacie Ponder's terrific run-down of all the zombie-sorts over at AMC yesterday. It's a battle to the spilled innards!

Slow zombies rule.
Dude, I know. Don't tell anyone, this is just our secret - I'd hate to effect the fairness of this highly scientific polls results, after all! - but I can't believe that Slow Zombies were being beaten here for so long. It's just now pulled back into a tie, but Slow Zombies are THE SHIT.
Fast zombies are really nothing different than a (living) lynch mob, except in the way they kill you. There's not a lot of operative difference between being hacked to death with machetes or bitten to death.
Slow zombies are cool because they are different than a lynch mob. The horror comes from knowing, "hey I can outrun/outpunch/outthink the zombies" but they are relentless. It's the same kind of horror as a room slowly filling with water, or walls closing slowly in on you. You have time to think about how you're about to die a horrible death. Much more terrifying.
Slow zombies forever!
