Really gotta pick up Ravenous its popping up on a few lists and the trailer looks really good. Great list Nos42.

ok, tried to keep all zombie references away. I would argue invasion of the bodysnatchers follows a traditional pandemic model and seventh seal is set with the backdrop of the plague.

Ravenous is an absolute hoot, it's wonderfully made, little bit twisted and quite humorous, whilst also just being a good movie. I was very pleased with it

OOh infections, glad non-zombie was clarified because I was going to do that anyway but this is a category that opens itself to some great and unique suggestion when you remove those damned zombies from the mix.

Well here we go, as I broadedend my definition I found more great ones I'd seen

10. Daybreakers
9. I Am Legend
8. The Crazies (Remake. Don't shoot me I loved it)
7. 28 Weeks Later (Easily one of the most disturbing and dark films I've seen)
6. [Rec]
5. Cabin Fever
4. The Bay
3. [Rec] 2 - Does away with the meddling and shit beforehand and gets straight into it. Far more thrilling.
2. Invasion of the Body Snatchers '78
And without a doubt, 1. 28 Days Later - A unique frightening vision and landmark piece of film (digital?) that will never be matched in my books. Still shocking.

From 8 above, I highly recommend checking them out. Below that is filler to reach 10 :P

Edit: Bloody hell Keirarts, I didn't even think of The Thing -_-

So to clarify, infection films excluding zombies? But we're allowing vampires? Do these lists have to stick within the horror genre?

[Nordicdusk]

Putting my list together last night I noticed Mulberry Street kept popping up I will have to watch this before I submit my list anyone else see it worth a watch ?

[J Harker]

Its definately worth a watch Nord, but the uk dvd is terrible.
