Van Helsing. Also Pirates of the Caribbean -- I would think the cursed pirates would qualify as "life-challenged", though they're not exactly undead.
Buffista Movies 4: Straight to Video
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
But ZOMBIES ARE MY FAVORITE THING!
in this you are very much the anti-me because zombies creep me the fuck out.
Idle Hands is fucking funny.
But ZOMBIES ARE MY FAVORITE THING!
This is just begging to be filked.
Idle Hands is fucking funny.
It was a total "Dude, Where's My Car?" moment for me -- I fully expected to find it shamefully, painfully, watch-from-the-hall BAD. And then I found myself laughing my ASS off.
Putrified noses and brains that get bitten,
Stumbling cadavers with them I am smitten,
Rotting appendages tied up in strings,
Zombies are one of my favorite things!

I certainly have to at least mention G Vs. E if only because it recalls the panel's title.
I'd forgotten about Ghost Whisperer and Medium! Unfortunately, I've not watched either one.
There was a recent-ish remake of Dawn of the Dead, as well as Romero's Land of the Dead (4th in his series of Dead movies).
Resident Evil 2
The Ring
The Ring 2
The Grudge
(and also the American release of Ju-on: the Grudge, the Japanese film it was a remake of...)
Dark Water
Freddy vs. Jason
(hey, a ghost and a zombie!)
On the TV front, there was that UPN show Haunted a couple of years ago, and Brimstone a good bit before that.
Just got back from a screening of Tristan +Isolde, which BF is reviewing. It was baaaaad. It was attractive people with paper-thin characters suffering while being lovingly photographed. I told BF it was the OC in Leather tunics. However, if I was 13 years old, I think I would love this movie--due to the many male model types brooding and striding about, and the tragic love, which is expressed not through craxy passionate sex, but through slow motion kissing in close-up with backlighting.
