Right. My response was directly to the 'man in black and gunslinger' thing being tied in. King being cute after the fact does not count :) TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

For those who arent ameri-centric Xmas/Yule is pretty much the universal 'go home and see family' day. I'm still trying to get my head around Thanksgiving. TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

The only thing that tied in at the time was The Stand. TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

I forgot the Dark Tower books. I only read the first few and they were great. Im glad I didnt go any further with them. I enjoyed his short stories too, but like I said, Stand and It were probably his best stuff with the first books being the standouts for creativity in the horror genre. Even the crappy books have had their moments, I just think that King is a shitty writer and when he's on he's a great storyteller. I just wish he could realize that and cut down on the huge amount of extraneous shite that he fills some of his decent stories with. TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

I dont really celebrate either. My kid celebrates Yule and Ostara with my ex, coincidentally they occur at around the same time of year but have a much longer history than that jonny come lately religion you call Christianity. Yule is when the something something winter aspects does something and Ostara is the other alternate aspect of something something something. Christians stole it because they knew it would be tough to erradicate the two biggest pagan festivals that the converts really enjoyed celebrating, then stuck their god on there. It's the same reason that if you travel around the UK you can find churches and abbeys in the most fucked up places imaginable. Build a church on a pagan religious site - the pagans dont give a shit if theres a roof where they want to worship their gods, and the church got to say 'hey, we converted all these people'. Xmas simply perpetuates Yule. people say merry Xmas or happy holidays where im from because we're so fucking tired of Xtians saying stupid stuff about putting the CHRIST in CHRISTMAS!!! Screw that, give me my presents, my candy and now leave me the fuck alone to enjoy them without any sanctimonious prat telling me to think about others. There's a reason my family have always wrapped any gifts in plain black paper for me. And why my spouse hides her little 2' tree in the spare room so I dont set light to it. It's the same reason I'll say "Jesus Fucking CHRIST!!!" or "God damned motherfucker" when I'm angry - it's social impact is pervasive and difficult to ignore. Like a herpes sore on a really hot girls lip. edited: because I realized I wasnt being insulting enough. TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

That and the Stand are the only good books Steven King ever wrote. TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

hat, scrotum. Get your nutz off the hotplate. TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

get one of them hotplates. that'll fix it. TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

He already does. Now I just take the can out of the fridge and place it next to me to relax. Little bugger hasnt quite worked out how to deal with the ring pull. Switched to cans after he worked out how to use the damn bottle opener though. TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

The original Dawn of the Dead without a doubt. It is the gold standard for all previous and future zombie movies. Hmm Prep work for Shawn of the Dead...... 1. Night of, Dawn of, Day of the Dead 2. Dead Alive and Reanimator (for a little light hearted stuff) 3. Zombie 2. The Beyond. 4. Argentos Night of the Demons, possibly his cut of Dawn too. Evil Dead 1 + 2 (burn and then piss on ED 3) 5. Dawn remake, 28 Days later. (the modern stuff) That pretty much covers the basics. TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

Hump me in a bad way!? Maybe you havent been paying attention to gas prices this year!!! He just called, then started bitching about being embarassed at the gas station. Third year in a row he's asked for a set of opposable thumbs for Xmas. TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

Once voted worst movie of all time. All the freaks were real people with real disabilities. My dog just told me he's borrowing the car to go to the store. I hope he remembers to put some gas in it before he brings it back. He never does usually. TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

Doesnt really matter, it's not a spoof. It adds to your enjoyment if you catch the homage bits, but the movie exists on it's own very well. I dont think an epidemic of shambling corpses is a very complex premise :) TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

It's quite simple. If Bush was caught raping a duck while stabbing a nun to death the people who like Bush would say it's him doing his job and that the nuns were way worse and very evil and had actually asked to be stabbed so Bush is a good guy while protecting the environment. Those posting on this thread on the leftwise side think that Bush is already raping ducks and murdering nuns. TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

Sorry, Romero's trilogy (quadrilogy now) with the original Dawn being the best for any zombie movie ever. hell, the guy re-invented the concept of Zombie, before that it was all voodoo crap. TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

Maybe you didnt see Bad Taste or Braindead (Dead Alive) if the Feebles were a shock :) Although I think Feebles wins on the tasteless scale even when matched up against A.I.D.S, vomit drinking, pus custard eating and putting a baby in a duffel bag before beating it against a swingset (indestructable zombie baby, but a baby nonetheless.) TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

Not at all. I think you're all retarded. TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

Hmm I only have Bad Taste here on-hand. TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

yeah and about 2000 liters of fake blood in that scene. TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

It was with the zombies, had some really funny gore gimmicks in it. set in new zealand. TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

It's out here in the US, comes in a 2 disc set. TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

Dead Alive .... Pete Jacksons movie about the sumatran rat monkey? Awesome movie. I wonder if most people know about this and Meet the Feebles. TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

Now THAT is an awesome movie! TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

You obviously didnt watch House first. DR is a masterpiece in comparison. TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

Hmmm. Nope, always loved em. TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.
