)For folks who haven't seen Romero's original zombie films= please do. They work on so many levels, from gore to slapstick to social commentary. Just forget all the crap knock-offs and remakes that are out there. Pop some Jiffy-Pop and spend this coming weekend watching all three originals.
'Dawn' had always been my favorite, but the more I watch 'Day' the more I like it. It was a definate change from the comic-booky nature of 'Dawn' but is very, very effective.
And Cable- Return of the Living Dead rates as one of my all-time favorite films. Funny, gorey and and perfect offshoot/homage to the Romero films. Plus, its the film that gave us "Brraaaiiiinnnnssss...." and a line I so often repeat- "send... more... paramedics..."
Good thing I'm seeing Batman this Weds, as I'll have the weekend and next week to re-zombify myself!
