At ten years old I had no problem with knowing it was only a movie.Pipernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4912713243046142041.post-73224447493938927192011-01-29T17:28:41.576-06:002011-01-29T17:28:41.576-06:00I DID get my dad to watch "Shaun of the Dead&...I DID get my dad to watch "Shaun of the Dead" and he enjoyed it.andiscandishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01409153642285844201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4912713243046142041.post-59904930731576166982011-01-29T16:04:05.628-06:002011-01-29T16:04:05.628-06:00I would highly recommend "Shaun of the Dead&q...I would highly recommend "Shaun of the Dead" as an antidote.Minnesotastanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01382888179579245181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4912713243046142041.post-62915106740754075512011-01-29T15:55:31.574-06:002011-01-29T15:55:31.574-06:00I saw this movie when I was 8 in the early 70s.

A family friend took me and my siblings to a midnight show. <br /><br />It scared the hell out of me - I didn't sleep for over a week. 16 years later, I'm living in an apartment building in Vienna. I have a zombie nightmare and end up checking the entire apartment and the building to make sure that zombies are not roaming the hallways.<br /><br />I still watch zombie movies, but prefer something along the lines of Fido or Zombieland (a feel good classic). <br /><br />The original film is a classic in that it broke so many taboos and its style just made the everyday appear so terrifying.<br /><br />I guess there's something primal in us that wants to be titillated and scared. If you want to see anything on par with this level of terror, just check out The Walking Dead series.Jack of All Tiradeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00793541460471870149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4912713243046142041.post-31646505311379285502011-01-28T09:58:57.773-06:002011-01-28T09:58:57.773-06:00My father will not watch horror movies to this day...My father will not watch horror movies to this day because of how much this movie terrified him.andiscandishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01409153642285844201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4912713243046142041.post-57788721159177935832011-01-28T06:56:15.050-06:002011-01-28T06:56:15.050-06:00I didn't see this film until it made it to lat...I didn't see this film until it made it to late night t.v. in a mostly unedited late-night showing. There in the comfort of my parent's home it scared the heck out of me. Zombie flicks still get to me like no other horror films can.<br /><br />The film redefined the word "zombie" and it's legacy is still felt in pop culture stronger then ever.JDJarvishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07691101939920824546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4912713243046142041.post-17665194314166449352011-01-28T00:15:57.609-06:002011-01-28T00:15:57.609-06:00Its importance as social commentary (along with th...Its importance as social commentary (along with the original Dawn of the Dead) is often overlooked by those uninitiated and merely judging it as shock-cinema.Timeshadowshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09952601433965644275noreply@blogger.com
