And although I'd say Shaun of the Dead is probably better all-around film as far as horror-comedies go, ROTLD walks that line between horror and comedy much better. It is both equally, whereas Shaun is much more a comedy than it is a horror movie.B-Solhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10717121313061173603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8470604276410220159.post-47332211737546229742008-03-11T11:44:00.000-04:002008-03-11T11:44:00.000-04:00I had virtually the same experience with ROTLD -- ...I had virtually the same experience with ROTLD -- I watched it numerous times as a kid, but totally missed the hilarity of it all until I was much older. I used to get scared shitless by it, but now I'm able to appreciate how amazing it is. <BR/><BR/>Honestly, I think it's darn close to a perfect horror film.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8470604276410220159.post-89592596300007632072008-03-10T22:33:00.000-04:002008-03-10T22:33:00.000-04:00It's really one of those movies that invites peopl...It's really one of those movies that invites people to underestimate it. It's amazing how well put together it is. From a technical standpoint, I may just join in your blasphemy. Romero to me is much more an idea man than a great technical filmmaker in my opinion.B-Solhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10717121313061173603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8470604276410220159.post-10482661535426732612008-03-10T20:17:00.000-04:002008-03-10T20:17:00.000-04:00This is one of my all time favorites too.

This one just totally comes together for me 100%, the simple yet effective settings, the music, everything! I rarely go 3 months without watching it...Mr. Karswellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15889717828895556186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8470604276410220159.post-35741152729231626532008-03-10T13:15:00.000-04:002008-03-10T13:15:00.000-04:00Thanks!

I can remember sitting upstairs listening to all those screams and awful sound effects, and just wondering what the heck could possibly be happening on that TV screen...B-Solhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10717121313061173603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8470604276410220159.post-82392458617092623232008-03-10T13:10:00.000-04:002008-03-10T13:10:00.000-04:00What a great story!

I think that's when the unhealthy desire to watch dismemberments and cannibalism truly sets in.CitizenPainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11401316198230206998noreply@blogger.com
