I was watching the Giants collapse this weekend with some friends :-( And the new Friday the 13th commercial came on. A discussion ensued about horror films and I brought up that I only watch Zombie movies - that brought silence to an already depressed crowd. Zombie movies ? Like 28 days later ? I guess that's OK. So I found myself defending the genre.
Why Zombie movies ? Because it could and probably will happen. How easy is it to believe that the government - or big business will create some crazy ass virus and inject us all "for safety reasons". Have you been to a casino lately ? The invasion has already begun.
What are the pillars of the horror industry ? Vampires and Werewolves, sorry the aren't among us. Psychopathic killers, CSI does too good of a job weekly for me to need the big screen. Creature Features, scientists would carve them up before they got a chance to be a threat. Supernatural Thrillers ? No, it's Zombie movies for me. Simple plot, simple rules and quite the motivator to watch every move big pharma makes.
