Oh course they exist! The virus that causes people to become Zombies is called solanum. Just read The Zombie Survival Guide by Max Brooks...








:D

it's a great movie, despite the flaws. genuinely unsettling at times.

you're a fool, sir. i've had more unsettling packed lunches. the first half was ok, but the second half was like they'd given a load of GCSE film students unlimited budgets and asked a different one to make each scene. how anyone could think it was better than the first one is beyond me! :p

because the first one was absolute wank. after the initial bit, which was quite good, it was like an over-extended Dr Who.
 
let's see - who's right?

rigorously intellectual aesthete and all round smart guy, Poului.

Or System of a Down fan, bluestreak?

hmmm....

cunt.
 
It's a virus that renders the victim a mindless, violent cunt. But not dead.

A zombie is (mostly in films) a reanimated corpse. Dead.

I prefer Weeks to Days.

Nah, the first half of that first film is genuinely haunting, and then it turns into a bit of entertainment that isn't quite as hot but still passes a pleasant enough 45 minutes.

The second one starts well and then decides that seeing as you've suspended your disbelief for the zombies you might as well suspend your disbelief for plot holes, ridiculous occurences, and tedious set-pieces. I cannae believe you enjoyed it. I mean, honestly, both meems and i were bored shitless by it. It didn't even have viscerality or top sfx to do it justice in the end.

I quake in my boots.

blathering nincompoops.

I'd rather defend a band that at least tries to do something decent than a film that fumbles the most basic ball going.

but you're a System of a Down fan so your opinion is worth 1.7% of anyone else's :)

'fan' is a big word.

I've also got a film studies a level, so :p

Where do I get a magic car that is gas and zombie and fire-proof?
 
I made the mistake of watching this film last week. And considering I'd already watched that steaming pile of shite, 28 days later, some while back I was doubly annoyed with myself for being taken in again. But even more depressing than that was the ending of the film when all the zombies are legging it out of a tunnel up towards the Eiffel Tower leading one to suspect the awful prospect of Vingt-huit Mois plus tard. God fucking forbid. :(

hahahahahahaha

how could you go so wrong with such perfect material. snatching fail from the jaws of win!

Couldn't agree more - fucking rubbish compared to the original film.

Marvel at the psychic powers of the great mystic, bluestreak!
 
I won't be bullied by the oh-so-cool gang into accepting that that nonsensical hollywood cash-in was any good whatsoever.

Yeah, you stick up for yourself man!

Personally, I thought they were both shitewank overall with patches of good.

It was shit wasn't it. Worse still I paid money to see it in the cinema. Even worse still it's the only film I've seen in the cinema this year.:(
