That's a sure way to kill 'em. If you don't, get yourself a club or a torch.

At the beginning moving quite fast & then later being more shambling.<br />Also, the fear of fire thing could be seen as just an extreme reaction to bright lights... something which is brought up again in 'Land'; one of the reasons I like 'Land' as a tool for tying the entire arc together.<br />It's also evident by the end of the series that some zombies are much more capable of thought than others, thus blurring any continuity errors.<br /><br />I also like that the main reason it stood out above the horde of other horror movies of the time was it's grittiness & stylised cinematography, both of which were forced into production by budget limitations rather than choices made at the get go.<br /><br />Awesome film.EK Biddle Esqhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00908316252130088472noreply@blogger.com
