Screen grab technology for DVD or video

Calling all techy-types!

Is there a free/cheap programme that I can get that will allow me to take screen grabs from DVDs or videos?

In the past, when the photographers at work have tried to take piccies, they come out blurry or with big scan lines through them.

We need the images of zombie movies for a feature in The End is Nigh and not entirely sure how to do it!!!

Cheers

I think "SnagIt" is supposed to be the best?!?!?

I asked this question the other day, and the board was quite helpful - just push the screen capture button on your pcdvd player.

There's one zombie that must be included in any screen grab.
