Yeah, MADMAN is pretty great.

I do consider Jason a zombie!

I don't know what I consider Michael Myers... an overextended plot device? I try not to think too hard about the rationale behind HALLOWEEN lore.

zombie no.one

Quote from: M.10rda on February 23, 2025, 01:35:38 PMABSURD is a cool movie and seems more like a slasher film, but the slasher played by George Eastman is a zombie.  :teddyr: I don't recall him eating anyone in ABSURD, though he does in the previous movie. But he's definitely un/dead. I guess no reason why we can't have it both ways!

I like ABSURD, it's dark one... but if I could change 1 thing it would be the endlessly repeating soundtrack/score! did my head in after a while


Quote from: RCMerchant on February 23, 2025, 02:34:26 PM^ Jason is a zombie. He's a kid from the bottom of a lake. And Michael Myers has been killed umpteenth times. So is he's a zombie too? But I don't consider HALLOWEEN a zombie movie.

don't forget in the original FRIDAY 13TH there's no supernatural element... brought in for part 2. so the first one at least is a 'bona fide' slasher
