mmm fleshy goodness


Ah, happy days. Soon the might Mr Romero's latest zombie fest will be gracing our screens! I couldn't be happier- there's nothing like watching a dinkum zombie gorefest in the cinema.
Sure, I can watch it on my TV with surround sound et al, but to see it up there, huge and in your face, with massive speakers belching out the raw, uncompromising sound of flesh being torn and skulls being cracked for the brainy goodness within.....ah man, it doesn't get better than that.

I'd always lived in hope that one day some alternate theatre (like the Prince Charles) would show any of the Dead trilogy as part of some fringe festival or something.
But this Friday we're off to see them all: Night, Dawn & Day of the Dead, one after the other, punctuated only by a quick run to the loo and a dash to the popcorn stand. Fucking A!!!!!!!

It was a bit of a "Oh Bugger" when they said that Land Of the Dead was sold out already, but that's actually better: I get to soak up the 3 for now, and save LotD for later.
It's sort of like when you were a kid on a long car journey and you've gotten to the last 3 cm of your chocolate log: you want to make it last a long' long time. You nibble off the chocolate, lick of the chewy marshmallow bit, then strip the chocolate sides off the wafers, then split the layers of wafer off on another before finally munching the last bit.

Tomorrow I'll be in zombie heaven- even more so if the rumoured appearance of the silver maned zombiemaster himself is there as the guest of honour is true!!
