World War Z. Not a classic book, but still...Wtf.

World War Z has NEVER been made into a film!

It's a perfectly fine zombie movie, but it only takes small elements from the excellent book. The book needs to be a TV series, made in a documentary style. I just pretend the movie is unrelated; it's enjoyable as just a standard action movie with zombies in it.

Yeah, 10 part mini series! Could be amazing.

World War Z is absolutely a modern classic. You can just tell when people are going to be talking about a book a hundred or so years later.
