Welcome one and all, girls and boys of
all ages step right up! No, I am not a barker foisting cheaply made
stuffed animals but I am inviting you all to enjoy a week of the
macabre as we take a look at the works of one of the masters of horror
George A. Romero. Yes the man that redefined the term zombie for us
with shambling, lurching ankle draggers with a naughty pension for
human flesh, Romero brought about two major effects with his first
movie Night of the Living Dead. One in 1968, he put a black man as
the lead role and two, zombies went from chemically induced servitors
to primal lead flesh eaters.
Damn you Prada for going on sale! |
Some find his films to be too graphic
and gory. Others find him to be obtuse or silly. You will have to
come to your own conclusions folks but in the spirit of the impeding
Halloween I thought it proper to have a filmmaker of fear at the
ready. So let's try to enjoy the collection of terror he has
mustered and see if we don't jump out of our seats or scream like
children seeing a big bug.
Drip dry zombie wear: for all your river crossing needs. |
