Note - The Evil Dead films are possession/demon films, not zombie related. I'll let AoD slide cause the bad guy does have zombie like footsoldiers rise up.
List of zombie films that need to be further researched
Rise of the Damned - Michael Bafaro - 2011 film - "RISE OF THE DAMNED". British Board of Film Classification. January 29, 2011 (last updated). Retrieved November 18, 2013. {{cite web}}: Check date values in: |date= (help) - IMDb - while the film got rated by the BBFC for direct-to-video, it needs information on a theater release, or any notability past some trailers; it has not been reviewed by the horror websites or media sources for actual zombies
The following movies require notability WP:NFILM beyond self-published websites, unreliable/anonymous blogs, Kickstarter, IMDB-like databases and lists, and distribution stores such as Amazon/eBay:
Long Live the Dead - 2012 film - director: Richard Poche - DVD anthology of five zombie short films - have only found Poche-related websites and Kickstarter
The Last Days of Humanity - 2002 film - director: Peter Dubiel - IMDb
The Necro Files 2 - 2003 film - director: Ron Carlo - IMDb
Necro Wars - director Robert Conway - 2010 film - IMDb IMDb announced movie was in post-production, however it is unclear whether it was properly released, even IMDb has no release date, can't find reviews online [5]
Vågn op! – en religiøs zombie parodi - dir: Peder Pedersen - 1992 film - Swedish film - IMDb
Punk Rock Zombie Kung Fu Catfight - dir: Peter Bernard 2004 film - IMDb
Raw Zombie 11 - dir: Jared Saverino - 1999 film - IMDb
Untot – Undead Unleashed (Untot — Kämpfer in der Leichenwelt, Untot) || Martin Erling || 1999 || || [4] || IMDb
Urban Scumbags vs. Countryside Zombies Reanimated - Maxim Matthew - 2009 - remake of 1992 film - IMDb - sources mainly from its own website, need others
The following movies seem to have notability, however, their release status is unknown as the supporting articles show in-production or trailers. They can best be addressed with reliable sources that point to official releases and reviews. They may be moved to the in-progress/abandoned film list, in that case, please strike them from this list.
When the RfC closes, we'll have consensus on whether non-notable films (those without an article) should be included. Other selection criteria have no basis in guidelines or policy, and I think a merge is in order. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 08:29, 21 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The discussion has been archived, however it was not merely for films which are redlinked, a previous discussion had already established a policy based consensus that having a Wikipedia article does not denote lack of notability in of itself, nor should be a criteria. The most recent consensus was that entries "that are redlinked and have only IMDB as a link (no refs)" should be removed. The second part was part of the previous discussion as well, but the entries were left on the page for the time being so references could be found iirc. Quite some time has passed since then, so removing those only supported by IMDB (or similar), to the talk page seems reasonable.Number36 (talk) 04:55, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
^Hagen, Markus (2007-05-06). "Mutation Annihilation (Extended Cut) Review". MarkusHagen.net (in German). dass Mutation – Annihilation aus einem Zusammenschnitt des zweiten und dritten Teils [...] (Translated: [...] that Mutation – Annihilation is the compilation of the second and third parts [...])
^"Mutation: Annihilation Review". Haikos Filmlexikon (in German). 2007. Retrieved October 12, 2013. Dieser vierte Teil ist in gewisser Weise ein Zusammenschnitt aus dem zweiten und dem dritten Teil plus vieler neuer Szenen (die bestimmt mehr als die Hälfte des Filmes ausmachen). (Translated: This fourth part is in some ways a compilation of the second and third parts plus many new scenes (which determines constitute more than half of the film).)
In light of the point I made in the section above, why have redlinked pages with WP:RS references been removed? The consensus reached on the page regarding this point was that whether a page is redlinked is not a criteria in and of itself (see archive 1), and the outcome of the most recent consensus (archive 3) concerned entries "that are redlinked and have only IMDB as a link (no refs)".Number36 (talk) 06:16, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
A couple of them look like they have the potential to be notable. I could look into creating articles on them, which might stem the edit warring from the IP editor. Unfortunately, I can't really do much about it in an administrative capacity, since I've heavily edited this article. If it continues, we could try requesting page protection at WP:RFPP.

I read through the archived talk pages and haven't seen this point addressed. Does a mere existence of a zombie in a film make it a zombie film? A specific case in point is the movie Hocus Pocus (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hocus_Pocus_(1993_film) where a corpse named Billy is raised by the witches as a zombie. The focus of the movie is not on this event, character, or source of zombification, hence I am strongly inclined to say that this isn't a zombie film. However, what would be the proper guideline for this particular issue. I'm trying to compile a list of all zombie films from as many sources I can find, on a spreadsheet, that I'll eventually transfer over to here gradually, but for issues like this I'm asking for guidance since it's a challenging nuance to make a decision on. Please let me know what you guys think. Thank you.

A lot of sources in this article are fine, but on going through it, a good chunk are using IMDb as a source, which we do not user per WP:RS/IMDb. These should be gone through and replaced if possible.Andrzejbanas (talk) 18:25, 19 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I think I got them all. I removed a few unsourced entries that were too difficult to source. I also removed some redlinked films because we had an RFC a while ago that said redlinked films generally shouldn't be added to this list. It shouldn't be too difficult to create articles for the ones that remain. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 00:00, 21 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
