there is some overacting but I excuse it for the most part since nearly every character is on the verge of losing or have lost their nerves and are wallowing in trauma.
Rhodes kinda earns this suffering though Espically as when everything goes to hell He basically leaves his men to die He acts big and tough, with fair reasons to be mad at the scientists when it's discovered what one of them was doing But he is really just a Coward who can't handle the zombies as well as anyone else
This guy does not count just the kills, but also tells us about the history, geography of the whole movie, and that's why I love him so much. Respect man.🙏🙏
I've always loved that James praises everyone that worked on the film he's covering, and the little BTS details he'll add to the video when it's necessary. Can't forget the respect he gives to the FX artists, producers, actors or directors that died several months or years after the film was made. Just shows James is a respectable human being.
@@boomstickcritique902 No, not 'common info.' He clearly researches and gives us lots of info about the special effects, cast, crew, director and so on. There's not another horror reviewer that does this good a job.
James : "Of course we as people get hungry too and since we can't just eat whatever human flesh is around it helps to have services like HelloFresh" HelloFresh : "Um, James could you ease up on the human flesh bits, we don't sell those ... "
@@JohnSmith-tt3go And then there are the bodies in the river at the end of Train to Busan and the church scene of 28 Days Later. I can't tell if I should appreciate the DEADication he and his team do or feel bad for the number of bodies they have to count
Day of the dead and dawn of the dead a and a few other zombie films opened up a whole generation of zombie films the effects are quiet something considering the budget they had to play with torrezz got killed stoned lol rest in peace to some of the cast that have not long past away, I didn't know steel past away in real life I think he was 71 but I don't know wot caused his death he looked quiet healthy, godbless you,
I love the tone of the movie. It makes sense because these people haven’t just been trying to survive, they are trying to find a cure since the beginning. They don’t have time for the jokes of Dawn of the Dead.
And while everyone has their Points It's clear the people who went the most extreme IE Frankenstein and Rhodes Are the villains of the movie, more so then the zombies
Fun fact: The video game "No More Room in Hell" (a game I highly recommend; on source engine and it's free) has an official map that uses the setting of this movie.
Bub still holds a spot in my mind as most memorable Zombie for him being the most human-behave-zombie. Sorry R from Warm Bodies and his revived-zombie friends but Bub was the first to show human behavior before you.
What about in, “I am Legend?” I know they’re vampires. But I really enjoyed how the infected were like animalistic humans. It’s like what would happen if old caveman humans started appearing and hunting us.
i bet bub lived happily ever after, making friends with living people while walking among the zombies and, if they ever did get the zombies under control, i bet they'd let bub live no matter what
I love Joe Pilato’s performance. Fav quote is: “I'm running this monkey farm now Frankenstein and I wanna know... what the fuck you're doing with my time?”
I love the way George Romero has 3 different camps of the way people want to live out the rest of their days. The chopper pilots want to just go to an island and live in paradise, the scientists want to provers life forward, and the military just want to kill as many zombies as they can until they meet the end.
legit gutted I can't watch this because of the age restriction even though I turn 30 in a few months. Get why he had to put it on the vid though, just hoping YT will at some point stop this bs
Excited to hear Train to Busan is getting a Kill Count. Easily the most emotional zombie movie I've ever seen in full (although I'll admit my pool is rather small).
I've never been so excited about a Kill Count announcement. That scene where they fight their way through the train car is one of my favorite scenes ever. Top notch stuff
When I first saw this, way back in 1985 at the theater, my friends and I cheered when it happened. I thought it was so different than other decaps. We also loved the effects, as we were HS drama students.
I can’t quite recall where I saw it - might have been the World War Z novel or Zombie Survival Guide - where they mention that meat just sits in the zombie stomach and eventually if they overeat their guts explode and fall out. Nice.
It’s that song that made me actually interested in the dead series once I learned where it’s from and it’s part of the many reasons why I love this film
Bro, James, if sponsorships are what it takes to keep these thigns coming as they are, then, man, apology unnecessary Not only do you brighten our days cataloging these kills from these fantastic horror movies, but you also educate us with some really really interesting behind-the-scenes knowledge from all of them.

Why does he need sponsors to be able to show gore on his channel can some one explain this to me. I ask this because I have seen countless videos with footage from countless Horror movies that show all the Gore and have no sponsors what so ever. I mean the entire Day of the Dead movie is on youtube itself and has no age restrictions or anything lol.
@@boomstickcritique902 Because of the gore the videos get demonetized by youtube, so he gets sponsorships to be able to make a profit, since he has to pay his editors aside from this being his source of income if I'm not mistaken
@@dio420 Good answer I should have thought about that but yea that makes sense. Why does youtube not like gore though I wasnt aware it meant to be like childrens site or something.
John Amples was my acting teacher in college and he was such a chill, relaxed guy who chain smoked like there was no tomorrow and it’s so cool to see the movies he was in get covered on the Kill Count. He was one of my favorite acting teachers in college for sure.
This is actually the first Romero movie I ever saw, and at the ripe age of 10 as well! I remember being mesmerized seeing Torres' death and his jaw still twitching as his head was ripped off. That one stuck with me for a long time!
Haven’t watched it full yet, but please tell me he doesn’t show the nightmare sound that was produced from it. That’s what’s preventing me from watching it. EDIT: I have seen and heard it and it’s not as bad as I remember it. I was petrified when I first saw it. In fact, now I can’t stop watching it.
I first saw this movie when I was eight, but I only the last twenty minutes. The part where Miguel opened the steel loading gate with all the zombies on. I didn’t see the full movie until I was 16
This is actually really cool. So many unique ideas in this film. How have I never heard of it? Amputation for a zombie bite? Never happens in movies. Discussions and arguments in a zombie film that actually have a purpose and aren't just filler? A zombie that is to some extent rehumanized? Training zombies? This movie's actually extremely impressive and was way ahead of its time.
I doubt they'll read this but I wanted to say... this was my favorite KC series. I love zombie movies and these are the best. SO happy James did this. Long live Bub!
@@cristobalalvarez1427 I'm not entirely sure that it can...though I suppose if the cords stretch without snapping, there would be a...noticable difference in the sound.
I don't think this would happen in real life, but a very cool effect! In fact, I think if it did happen it would be the opposite, the voice would get deeper, ever blow into bottle necks to make music? Bigger holes make lower pitched sounds
I think the key is what you said.... Romero probably didn't want to make the same zombie movies over and over again. So he made all 3 very different. I respect that... I think their all equally as good in their own ways. The head sliced in half and flicked away was bad ass!! That's Savini having fun with his talents!
"Kill Counts are never meant to replace the experience of watching Soren's RUclips videos" It's little things like this that make me love this channel.
I love how Romero never overthunk surviving a zombie apocalypse and never liked zombie survival how-to books. He used the zombies as a tool to show flaws in contemporary society. Night of the Living Dead showed that not all good guys are white. Dawn of the Dead showed how corporations made zombies out of us. Day of the Dead shows how cooperation is the best way for us to live, not isolation.
Terry Alexander's commentary on human tendency to turn on each other rather than come together in community was never more apparent than in this pandemic.
I'm loving the Kill Counts so far, and I'm glad to hear you're covering Train to Busan. It's the first movie I've watched that wasn't in English. I gave it a shot before watching Parasite because the director of Parasite said, “Once you overcome the 1-inch-tall barrier of subtitles, you will be introduced to so many more amazing films.” And he was right. Train to Busan and Parasite were amazing.
I absolutely love how much you reference and clearly love the Gorillaz. They were my first favorite band growing up, with Demon Dayz still being my all time favorite album
This is my absolute favourite "Of The Dead" movies, I watched it on cable as a pre teen and was blown away by how different it was from the gore porn half comedies that most zombie media had become by the 2000s
Dead Meat is such a great RUclips channel. I've not only enjoyed each and every video, but I've learned so much from watching too. The behind the scenes info James gives adds so much. Ever since the Friday the 13th Kill Count came out, I've been a fan. I wish RUclips was more lenient, as it seems my favorite content creators are being censored to some degree.
Amazing that the holy Dead trilogy spans 3 decades. You get the 60s, 70s, and 80s vibes and they are spaced out perfectly. They just rapid fire sequels these days.
i’m in my second year of college. i started watching this channel almost 6 years ago. That truly blows my mind away. Year after year, video after video James and the entire dead meat team have been a massive comfort. Thanks for all the great videos, and for getting me to watch a lot of new movies. I can’t lie, I don’t want them all before the kill counts come out, but it’s still a great experience all around.
I love the ways that James is easily able to introduce an ad read into a kill count. They feel unique, genuine, and personal. That, as well as the mini clips of James using said ad items, is really fucking funny lol.
Private torrez has the most horrible death in all of horror movie history. I first saw this movie at 13 or 14 and i will never forget the gruesome and gory nature of his death. Bravo mr. Savini!!
Could totally see him being some tech dude in a cameo looking over news reports of some deaths on Halloween and giving a nice one liner before being killed
Wow so excited for the new videos every Sunday (for now with extra Kill Counts), Tuesday (Dead Meat Podcast), Wednesday (With your new series), and Friday (With your Kill Counts). I've been a long-time supporter since early last year but found you through your Friday Kill Counts. Keep up the amazing work as always James!
I love how over the three films you can see the zombies decompose, meaning that the problem will most likely solve itself when their brains have rotted too much.
The problem is too many people have died or zombified at that point for humanity to rebuild. Plus there's still a lot of zombies that are an immediate threat you have to kill. Not to mention dwindling resources.
Day of the Dead no doubt shows some of the most horrific deaths at the hands of the undead. Unlike other zombie media which tends not to dwell on it too much, Day establishing the fact that zombies outnumber humans 400,000 to 1 really accentuates how precious human lives are in this movie. So there’s a deep sadness that comes with every time a human dies regardless of how evil they are. It also helps that George Romero really lingers on Tom Savini’s superb make-up work which also really sells the horrific nature of the kills.
Day of the Dead to the "Of The Dead" series is what Halloween 3 was to the "Halloween" series. It didn't get a lot of love back then, but now, it's seen as a huge cult classic.
Watched this movie as a kid around 20 years after it was released. I have so much respect and admiration for the pre-CGI films. They don’t make them like this anymore. CLASSIC!!!
Whenever I saw doctor Logan and his zombie friend together it becomes one of the most wholsome things I saw in my life I was smiling ever time they were in scene
This is my favorite in all of Romero's films, the music is probably the best OST in the history of Horror, its sense of melancholy is unmatched. The gore is, even in Savini's words, is masterful. Everything, really is just finger lickin' good.
George told me the head ripping death was his favorite it made him laugh. When it was released in theaters, it made people cringe and the deaths grossed them out to the point people were leaving.
Hell. Yes. I absolutely adore this movie. That opening? 👌And Bub is the absolute best! And finding out many of these actors had a stage background makes SO MUCH sense.

DAY OF THE DEAD gets better with age. Those gore effects are top notch. 👌🏼
Its okay lol
Best
True, I love this film but Dawn is still my favourite. The one and only thing that let's Day down is some of the acting. A few cases of overacting.
I don't know which Dead sequel i like better.
there is some overacting but I excuse it for the most part since nearly every character is on the verge of losing or have lost their nerves and are wallowing in trauma.

Because of the gore of tom savini and the directing of George a romero

Rhodes kinda earns this suffering though
Espically as when everything goes to hell
He basically leaves his men to die
He acts big and tough, with fair reasons to be mad at the scientists when it's discovered what one of them was doing
But he is really just a Coward who can't handle the zombies as well as anyone else

My head cannon is that Bub had continued to develop, and eventually rode into the sun set on a motorcycle.
Actually he was captured, taken to Fiddler's Green and used for photo ops. He was in Land of the Dead. Very sad.
@@Bluesit32 Yeah, but the zombies took back Fiddler's Green so...

The head sliced in half and flicked away was bad ass!! That's Savini having fun with his talents!
"If I cut your skull through the middle, I'd have two identical halves, that's important."
"Kill Counts are never meant to replace the experience of watching Soren's RUclips videos"
It's little things like this that make me love this channel.
I love how Romero never overthunk surviving a zombie apocalypse and never liked zombie survival how-to books. He used the zombies as a tool to show flaws in contemporary society. Night of the Living Dead showed that not all good guys are white. Dawn of the Dead showed how corporations made zombies out of us. Day of the Dead shows how cooperation is the best way for us to live, not isolation.
The guy getting his head removed from a zombie is the most Scariest and Disturbing moment I've ever seen.
Especially since his voice gets higher pitched when the zombies pull his head off stretching his vocals chords..... Eugh....
@@cristobalalvarez1427 i wanna see it get myth busted
James:” here, have a consolation kill”
Me:” why thank you James”
Well said, dad
I guess you could call it a severance package because he severed his ties with LIFE
I don't think you ever need to apologize for sponsorships. You cure our boredom so we will just except a million ads.
I'll take a sponsorship over 20 different ads on a 10 minute video so yeah James is alright
*Half decapitation*
James: doesn’t count
*Hit with wooden board*

For those wondering: Knight Riders is exactly as cool as it sounds.
Was definitely wondering lmao
With a great appearance by Stephen King as hoagie-eating audience member!
Romero's trilogy not getting as many views as other Kill Counts is breaking my dang heart.
Terry Alexander's commentary on human tendency to turn on each other rather than come together in community was never more apparent than in this pandemic.
I actually think the pandemic has shown the opposite. The contrarians and grifters are in a very small minority
I'm loving the Kill Counts so far, and I'm glad to hear you're covering Train to Busan.
It's the first movie I've watched that wasn't in English.
I gave it a shot before watching Parasite because the director of Parasite said, “Once you overcome the 1-inch-tall barrier of subtitles, you will be introduced to so many more amazing films.”
And he was right. Train to Busan and Parasite were amazing.
I feel disappointed just reading this
This comment aged like milk. (No offense too you, just making a joke)
@@nelproductions8153 Tell me about it :(
I was so hyped for the Kill Count and it got taken down.
@@SLDFSpectreSix i watched that shit like 8 times before it went down lol
It’s back, Bitches
I absolutely love how much you reference and clearly love the Gorillaz. They were my first favorite band growing up, with Demon Dayz still being my all time favorite album
@Nintendo Gamer I never knew this is what M1 A1 sampled but I did get excited when referenced November Has Come
Don't stop get it get it, steady watch me navigate ha ha ha ha haaaaaaaaa
This is my absolute favourite "Of The Dead" movies, I watched it on cable as a pre teen and was blown away by how different it was from the gore porn half comedies that most zombie media had become by the 2000s
Dead Meat is such a great RUclips channel. I've not only enjoyed each and every video, but I've learned so much from watching too. The behind the scenes info James gives adds so much. Ever since the Friday the 13th Kill Count came out, I've been a fan. I wish RUclips was more lenient, as it seems my favorite content creators are being censored to some degree.
5:38 _DINOSAUR...?_
Ahh, I swear every time James says “dinosaur” it’s like a shot of liquid happiness to my ears 🤤
DYNOSAWR?!
"What was this guy's life?" LOL
Dinosawh????
@@RavenousMaw Dinosawr.
@@mbx6953 Indeed, dinosawr.
I love the saw line he used from John Kramer when he was first talking to Hoffmen
“Killing is distasteful”
Brilliant line describing murder the same way you would tacky furniture
All time favorite movie. John’s monologue when they’re in the ritz is probably my favorite part of anything
Amazing that the holy Dead trilogy spans 3 decades. You get the 60s, 70s, and 80s vibes and they are spaced out perfectly. They just rapid fire sequels these days.
James: Announces he is doing a Train to Busan kill count
Me: Something tells me that number is gonna be pretty high....
@@HeyItzAri If it is then Double Tap is gonna be pissed
Add to that some "kills" were off-screen or just implied, that film will be difficult for James.
Edit: language
How many kills are there?
@@MrBlueSkyof1607 all I know is that there are two survivors
and lots more tears
Of course... Even after James' blurring of a lot of the gore in this video it still got age restricted
Classic RUclips
To this day, too. Fuckin' sad.
i’m in my second year of college. i started watching this channel almost 6 years ago. That truly blows my mind away. Year after year, video after video James and the entire dead meat team have been a massive comfort. Thanks for all the great videos, and for getting me to watch a lot of new movies. I can’t lie, I don’t want them all before the kill counts come out, but it’s still a great experience all around.
nice to see james channeling his inner JIGSAW: "killing is DISTASTEFUL"
I almost died when he said that he was gonna count Train to Busan and Social Mediasochist 2
Me too
SAME BRUH
I love the ways that James is easily able to introduce an ad read into a kill count. They feel unique, genuine, and personal. That, as well as the mini clips of James using said ad items, is really fucking funny lol.
Private torrez has the most horrible death in all of horror movie history. I first saw this movie at 13 or 14 and i will never forget the gruesome and gory nature of his death. Bravo mr. Savini!!
24:13 LOL The zed on the right looks over at his zed buddy like, "Oh crap."
The zombies aren't the problem.
We are the problem.

@@Cap_1726 guns don't last long
I love the line “choke on em” it’s so defiant despite how much we hate Rhodes you can’t say his last words weren’t cool
Definitely. 🙂
I like the idea of a zombie choking to death. I dunno how it would work, but i want it to happen.
bub is the most iconic and lovable zombie thats ever existed. he gave hope and was passive. i still remember him to this day.
Can we just appreciate James singing along to Ode to Joy? He's got a really nice voice
Imagine how cool it would be to see James in an upcoming famous horror movie like Halloween kills 🎃
@Kne3cap oh yeah 😂
yeah. it would be fun if he also became a screenwriter, he could avoid thankskilling 3 that way
He can be cameo as a news anchor reporting the death becaude of Michael Myers
Could totally see him being some tech dude in a cameo looking over news reports of some deaths on Halloween and giving a nice one liner before being killed
And he’s gets killed the fuck out of.
The kill with the increasing pitch makes me uncomfortable with effect and noise. My neck hurts just think about it.
its so brutal like i have seen a lot of gore a lot and the kill just made me really scared
me too
It scared the shit outta me
@@Mycatgotdeported Rhodes's death is better. has pig guts in it.
@@gillianday4804 it is a cool death, but this one made me real damn uncomfortable hearing it.
So glad that McDermott lived. Figured he was gonna get tossed onto the kill count just because he wasn't one of the two main characters.
Just hearing the name "Tom Savini" makes me like a movie
Holy frijole ur name is long
Wow so excited for the new videos every Sunday (for now with extra Kill Counts), Tuesday (Dead Meat Podcast), Wednesday (With your new series), and Friday (With your Kill Counts). I've been a long-time supporter since early last year but found you through your Friday Kill Counts. Keep up the amazing work as always James!
I love how over the three films you can see the zombies decompose, meaning that the problem will most likely solve itself when their brains have rotted too much.
The problem is too many people have died or zombified at that point for humanity to rebuild.
Plus there's still a lot of zombies that are an immediate threat you have to kill.
Not to mention dwindling resources.
@@Cacowninja I didn't say humans would still be around once the problem was solved I just meant it would eventually take itself out
@@thatoneguy1426 Oh right.
"Rhodes gets away on the world's slowest Betrayal Machine..."

I swear, Day of the dead and Return of the living dead are two of the most underrated zombie films ever.
Self-Titled 🤘🏻🤘🏻

Jame: WIFE I NEED TO FILM SPONSOR.
Chelsea:*sigh* OK
Him cutting the skin off on his cheek with the razor makes me feel so much more uncomfortable than someone being torn apart.
Fr, I think he needs ManScaped
I always love hearing all the behind the scenes things. The detail that goes into the makeup and practical effects is so amazing!
This movie made me scared of zombies. The whole army dudes getting pulled apart as well as captain Rhoades
McDermott looks like Mr. Bean to me.
Day of the Dead no doubt shows some of the most horrific deaths at the hands of the undead. Unlike other zombie media which tends not to dwell on it too much, Day establishing the fact that zombies outnumber humans 400,000 to 1 really accentuates how precious human lives are in this movie. So there’s a deep sadness that comes with every time a human dies regardless of how evil they are. It also helps that George Romero really lingers on Tom Savini’s superb make-up work which also really sells the horrific nature of the kills.
"Those on the Train to Busan"
I started yelling. Freaking love that movie so much. I'm so excited, man. Holy moly.
Easily a top 5 (if not, top 3) Zombie movie IMO. Just masterful.
Day of the Dead to the "Of The Dead" series is what Halloween 3 was to the "Halloween" series.
It didn't get a lot of love back then, but now, it's seen as a huge cult classic.
Agree. 💯💯
You can't find any cult classic movies on cable though.
I hope I have the wherewithal to gurgle "choke on 'em!" when I get eaten.
Nice
"when"?
@@BrunoSantos-jp1lv came here to say this
I'd simply attach a label saying 'not for zombie consumption' and hope for the best.
I also reportedly taste awful.
the amount of Gorillaz references James put into these kill counts gives next level respect.
Watched this movie as a kid around 20 years after it was released. I have so much respect and admiration for the pre-CGI films. They don’t make them like this anymore. CLASSIC!!!
Yes they do, there's alot of movies that still have amazing practical effects
Whenever I saw doctor Logan and his zombie friend together it becomes one of the most wholsome things I saw in my life I was smiling ever time they were in scene
when james said "next week were covering a different zombie movie a train to busan" that got me pumped
bad news about that one that you probably already know about
@@tetoterritory yeah f*ck youtube's algotith
@@tetoterritory its back now but the second one didn't get covered
This is my favorite in all of Romero's films, the music is probably the best OST in the history of Horror, its sense of melancholy is unmatched. The gore is, even in Savini's words, is masterful. Everything, really is just finger lickin' good.
George told me the head ripping death was his favorite it made him laugh. When it was released in theaters, it made people cringe and the deaths grossed them out to the point people were leaving.
I wish was able to meat George
@@chickenstrips9376 yes he was very attractive. I would've liked to meat him too
Hell. Yes. I absolutely adore this movie. That opening? 👌And Bub is the absolute best!
And finding out many of these actors had a stage background makes SO MUCH sense.
Damn right.
And I was especially happy with the zombies in Land of the Dead. Just you wait.
@@NitPickz oh I’ve SEEN Land, don’t you worry
I personally think Day of The Dead was the best of the classic zombie trilogy.
Completely agree. It aged way better than the other two
It is. Far more disturbing and hopeless.
My favorite of Romero’s first trilogy. It’s deeply moving, beautifully shot and incredibly gruesome. The soundtrack is absolutely amazing too.
