- I am a zombies aficionado (even bought Max Brook's The Zombie Survival Guide) and after seeing dozens of zombies movies, the girl in this movie poster still being one of the most scariest thing i ever saw.
Don't know exactly what, but i guess is the almost-ordinary-yet-something-is-strange make up and look that give a realistic touch to the thing.
