One of the reasons why
[Rec] and its sequels stands out above the recent flurry of zombie/infected films is the 'zombies' (or whatever you wish to call them) themselves! Demonic, flesh-eating sprinting creatures that are hungry for their next human meal. And who could forget the freakishly disturbing ultra-skinny zombie first seen towards the terrifying climax of the first film?!
So, what are some other films that have twisted the zombie mold slightly and created some truly memorable living dead?
