Let’s do another zombie movie, shall we? I really should have done this after Night of the Living Dead, seeing as how it’s an indirect sequel. Oh well.
I didn’t love this movie immediately. Coming from Romero’s films, it’s a different kind of zombie movie. It has fun with the idea of zombies. They run. They pick up radios and say things like, “Send more paramedics.” They feast on brains as well as flesh. It’s funny, but it’s also extremely gory. Right up my alley.
It also introduces one of the most iconic zombies in history…
…and shows us an extremely diverse group of friends…
…including someone talks about being eaten alive, then dancing naked on tombstones. That Trash. She knows how to party.

On top of all of that, it takes place in Louisville, Kentucky. (Full disclosure: I live in Kentucky.) If you haven’t seen this, watch it now. If you have seen it, watch it now.
