Director: Zack Snyder (Dawn of the Dead ’04)
Why it’s good: The Dirty Dozen, Escape from New York, and Dawn of the Dead walk into a blender, and the result is a big, fat, colorful, epic piece of genre filmmaking. All you need to know is that all of Las Vegas is surrounded by walls and swollen with zombies—and a team of mercenaries, led by Dave Bautista, have to invade the city in order to retrieve a huge pile of money stashed inside a secure vault. The eclectic ensemble helps a whole lot, and the film offers a barrage of set pieces that are tough to resist.
