I'll probably watch it, even though I really didn't like Dawn of the Dead.

Im weird, I like all the Dead remakes better than the Romero Originals.
Night, Dawn, and Ill probably like the upcoming Day of the Dead better too, which is being done by some of the Halloween H2O guys.
I did really like Day of the Dead though, it was my fave of the originals, even if it didnt have as much zombieness. Bub made that movie.
If Big Daddy was half as cool as Bub I might have thought Land of the Dead was worth 2 shits.

Post by: IDE on Mar 12, 2006, 11:26:40 PM: It seems like it's gonna be a horror comedy...

You have that redneck lady turning into a giant ball "I think something is wrong with me"

and her saying something about the bonds of matrimony and then the guy turns around with tentacle monster face.

I don't know, seems funny to me for some reason.

I can see it, but then again, the following, being such an obvious "not a good idea", made me snicker:

The reigning Miss Deaf Texas was walking near tracks Monday when she was struck and killed by an oncoming Union Pacific train.

I'm going to Hell for sure. :P

McAvoy was walking northbound along the railroad ties, with her back to the train, as it approached. A horn sounded, but "they weren't able to get a response," said Austin Police Department detective David Fugitt. "At that point, they activated their emergency braking system, but they weren't able to stop in time."
She was texting someone to pick her up when hit.

One would think - I have a deaf-from-birth cousin who could tell if the volume was too loud when he turned on the TV by the vibrations.

Maybe she was drunk?
