My Beef with Return of the Living Dead

[cheebacheeba]

I actually just saw it about a week ago....I know Ive probably said this b4, but I hate "aussie" kinda aussie films, yknow?
Its a very good effort, it's comical, yet slightly serious, nowhere near as comical as say "dead alive" (braindead here), has quiet a cool twist to the conventional zombie flick...there's like, alien involvement to that end, but I won't say how, but I feel as though this part of the movie points to sequel potential (whatevers really going on between the zombies and the aliens) Overall I'd say worth a watch, I mean, U get to see zombies chopped in half, missing half their head, getting legs blown off....and get this...zombie fish!!! heh-heh
they supposedly had a higher budget on special fx that any other australian film ever, and that, for one, very much shows.
I think you'd like it.

Cool. I have no idea when it will be released over here, but I'll be looking forward to it.

Dawn is my favorite. Ken Foree is one of my favorite horror veterans. Tom Savini also kicks alot of ass in it too. It's always been a fantasy of mine to live in shopping mall and just take whatever you wanted. That probably has something to do with it too.

And on another boyhood rant. I would always play Dawn/Day of the Dead with my G.I. Joes. I would never have them at war with Cobra, just fighting zombies all the time. Anyone else do that?

No, but I did more than a few (sisters) barbie death scenes....heh-heh-heh.....I mean, u could only paint em red, burn 'em, dismember 'em or decapitate 'em...but it was still fun...my sister never understood my "art",..

Funny story. Also, I got a chance to meet Savini and Foree last year and that clenched it for me. Savini was cool and Foree was super-nice. Just another reason why Dawn is my favorite.

It happened at the Horrorfind Weekend con.

I LOVE zombies ate my neighbors. It was one of my favorite Sega games. I could play it for hours b/c it's the only game I had where two people could play at the same time. Great fun.
