'Dead Snow' DVD Details & 25 Better Zombie Flicks
Remember Dead Snow? Nazi zombies, snow, etc? No? Didn't think so. If you blinked you would have missed the flick's theatrical release about 4 months ago. But no worries, now you'll have the opportunity to enjoy all of the Nazi Zombie goodness that Dead Snow has to offer in the comfort of your own home when Dead Snow hits Blu-ray and 2-Disc DVD on February 23, 2010. Hit the jump for full details and box art...and a challenge.

Problems? You've got that right. It's not the worst Nazi Zombie flick out there; we'll leave that crown to Zombie Lake. But I couldn't help but notice the Entertainment Weekly quote on the box cover. Really Entertainment Weekly, one of the Top 25 Zombie Films of All Time? Of all time?!?!? And it made The Boston Globe’s list of the Top 20 Zombie Films of All Time? I don't think so.
Below are 25 zombie flicks that I think are BETTER than Dead Snow. These are not necessarily my top 25 favorite, just a random sampling of 25 zombie flicks that I think are BETTER (there are more!), in alphabetical order (since I'm not playing favorites here). Keep in mind that it took me about 2 minutes to put this list together. Time to fill up your Netflix queue folks.
