I have this buddy whos recently been getting into zombies, dig? He watched The original "DAWN OF THE DEAD" and the remake and now he reads the zombie survival handbook, plays Dead Rising on his X-box, the whole shibang. So I says, "Dude, check out Dead Alive! It rules!" So Were watching it, and were not even to the cemetary scene yet and he says, "Im getting tired. I think im gonna go home." And Im like "Why?" and he tells me that in dawn of the dead, the zombie action starts right up from the beginning, and here in dead alive, the un-dead goodness is taking to long. So basicly, by watching DAWN OF THE DEAD as his first zombie movie, hes going to expect all zombie movies to be that quick, making it hard for me to keep his intrest alive.

Shame. Bloody shame.

Bloody shame.

My first zombie flick was like, in 1993.  I was 8 and saw Night of The Living Dead on MonsterVision.  Good stuff. 

That's classic right there.

Ya know, I tried to show him that, but our other friend who was with us was like, "That movie is so STUPID. You dont wanna see that one, man." And he talk my zombie friend out of seeing it.

Again, shame.

That sounds good. I was also thinking of buying "Zombi 2" or "Cemetery Man" and showing him those.

Next time that he is over just start playing the movie from where he left off. Leave the TV on the background if he's into zombies he'll notice the action.

Zombies are overrated.  You should get him into something rare, like Golems.

Instead of a bum, which is what he is.

What really seems to get people excited about zombie movies is thinking that they might make one themselves some day.

Indeed! That film doesn't waste any time in getting to the zombie action.

The FDA has been looking for a generic name for Viagra. After careful consideration by a team of government experts, it recently announced that it has settled on the generic name of Mycoxafloppin. Also considered were Mycoxafailin, Mydixadrupin, Mydixarizin, Dixafix, and of course, Ibepokin.

Your... your friend walked out of Braindead/Dead Alive!?!?!?

God... damn. Seriously, and I never type or say that.

Wait, did you show him the unrated version? The one I saw (and this is in Aussieland, mind you) had a guy get chopped up less than two minutes in. Well... if he wants zombies, just show him 28 Weeks Later to freak him out. :tongueout:

Or you could always skip to the money shots in Dead Alive.
