For those of you looking for that just so special gift for the zombie-lover in your life...

Rule #1: Cardio



So, ummm... yeah! Fucking WOW!!! I loved this movie. It was so damned good! I would recommend this movie to ANYONE! Whether you love, hate or are indifferent to the whole zombie genre of movies, go see this one! Just "nut up or shut up!" I laughed my ass off. And yes, I will admit I jumped a few times (but I blame the preview for the movie Legion for starting that).

I'm also so looking forward to World War Z based on a book by Max Brooks. Who has also written The Zombie Survival Guide and the forthcoming The Zombie Survival Guide: Recorded Attacks. Ugh, I need to get my ass going and finish reading Pride and Prejudice and Zombies and then move on to the Max Brooks collection. All the while, still enjoying the new found and extremely amazing distraction in my little mad scientist...



Just a few rules to live by:

#1 - Cardio ... "The first ones to go were the fatties..."
#2 - Beware of bathrooms
#3 - Seat belts
#4 - Double tap ... the zombies ALWAYS get back up after the first shot/blow
...
#17 - Don't be a hero
#18 - Limber up
#22 - Plan your escape
#31 - Check the back seat
#32 - Enjoy the little things




Dear FCC and your new blogger law... I was not paid for this rave review of Zombieland, nor have I ever spoken with or received any kind of compensation (unless you count the hours of joy I received from watching it and talking about it) from anybody even remotely involved with this fucking-fantastic movie!

Zombieland here I come!



So today, after work... Zombie Queen and I (along with her straight husband... I'm the gay husband here...) are going to see Zombieland. This should fit in perfectly with my love of the funnier side of zombie movies (such as Shawn of the Dead, Fido and Boy Eats Girl).

I do have to admit I've fallen down on my zombie readings though. I love Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, but I am just having the hardest time finishing it. I've got like 10 chapters left...but for some reason my lazy ass just isn't reading. Maybe I can blame it on the new little mad scientist in my life... maybe...

All shapes and sizes!



Well, you know me, if it's zombie related...I'm posting it. Speaking of which, I'm still working my slow-ass through Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. I'm loving it, just slow going for some reason. Hopefully I'll have more to report on it soon!

I do have to say though, my favorite passage from the Pride and Prejudice and Zombies thus far has to be this:

He then asked her to walk into the house--but she declared herself not tired, and they stood together on the lawn. At such a time much might have been said, but nothing was. Elizabeth and Darcy merely looked at one another in awkward silence, until the latter reached both arms around her. She was frozen--"What does he mean to do?" she thought. But his intentions were respectable, for Darcy merely meant to retrieve his Brown Bess, which Elizabeth had affixed to her back during the walk. She remembered the lead ammunition in her pocket and offered it to him. "Your balls, Mr. Darcy?" He reached out and closed her hand around them, and offered, "They belong to you, Miss Bennet."

Pride and Prejudice...and Zombies?!?!?



I'll be the first to admit, I haven't read it. I haven't even read the original Pride and Prejudice, although I do have the book at home, sitting on my dresser, and I have seen the Kiera Knightley version of the film (which I LOVED!!!).

But when I came across a story about a new and updated version called Pride and Prejudice and Zombies...I thought to myself, "well, now that's just a swell idea". And I meant it! Yeah, I'm weird about zombies for some reason. I love 'em! I haven't seen every zombie movie out there, yet. But I do have a few favorites, such as "Shaun of the Dead", "Fido", "Boy Eats Girl", etc. And now, I can incorporate zombies into my love of reading. You can bet this one will be going on my request list at my local library!

And here's my favorite quote from Monica Hesse's article on MSNBC.com:

The news was announced in the recently released novel "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies," which recounts the struggle of Elizabeth Bennet and her sisters to simultaneously annihilate the undead invading their idyllic community and to marry well.

Were it just the zombies, the Bennet sisters would surely triumph, armed as they are with advanced weaponry knowledge and Shaolin martial arts training. Unfortunately, however, aliens, vampires, robots and dragons are also about to descend on the village.


I'm in love and we haven't even met yet!

Run for your lives! The end is near!



Anyone who has been reading my blog for awhile may have picked up on my affinity for zombies. Yeah, it's weird and I have no explination for it...but it there...so deal with it. I came across this story and nearly fell out of my seat laughing. I absolutely loved it!

Yeah, it's a crime, they shouldn't have done it, blah, blah, blah! Aside from the public safety issues, we could all use a good laugh. And I don't know about you...but I found this pretty f'ing funny!


buy it here!

p.s. here are my recommendations for a couple of really good zombie movies:

1. Shaun of the Dead

2. Fido

3. Dawn of the Dead (2004 version)

...I guess I'm more a fan of the funny zombies really

And yet still nothing new to say...

But I really like this series from ASofterWorld.com (I'll add the 6th one later). It caries on with my as-of-late "Zombie" theme...

And here's part #6...YAY!!!!
