Who loves Zombies?  Everybody that's who...
I just saw Land of the Dead,  it's an enjoyable Zombie romp.  It get's a little silly, but I consider it to be better than Dawn of the Dead (remake) or those awful Resident Evil movies.  However, the movie isn't in the same league as the original Night of the Living Dead or 28 Days Later.  But enjoyable nonethelesss.

Hooray for puppets!!  Land of the Dead actually utilizes a lot of animatronic Zombies in this movie rather than resorting to CG.  Good for them.  Yes you can tell they're animatronic, yes they even look a little fake, but it's still preferable to awkard CG stuff.  

Since Im talking Zombies here, be sure to check out the indie Zombie film Risen, coming in October (most likely straight to DVD).  They filmed it in Waco, Texas, where I live and I got to play an extra in few scenes.  I play a body in a couple scenes, cuz I'm skinny, and I play a Zombie who gets a baseball bat beat down by the lead actress in the movie...cool stuff.

I saw a film once called Redneck Zombies. I was about a bunch of Rednecks who decide to make moonshine in an old radioactive waste container. Shame they didn't clean the thing out before they used it...

I'll refrain from giving you a third warning, considering you've yet to see my others.

1. Do not reply by quoting an entire post if its that long.

2. Do not post uselessly. "Weeee" is spam, and will not be tolerated.

polly jack seamen
