'The Killer In Me'
A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
But the level saying 28 Days Later isn't actually a zombie movie is reacting to the initial overwhelming assumption that it was a zombie story. I think it's a minority that get all hard core.
But if it were mentioned in story, you'd know what to take their heads off withm, like you know how to battle a vamp. Or you could point out what's not actually a zombie and move on.
From the title, I'd assumed it was a werewolf story.
Should I find myself the protagonist of a horror story in progress, my policy is going to be that decapitation is a good idea no matter what sort of monster it actually turns out to be. Vampires, zombies, werewolves, Alan Arkin... if lopping the head off isn't fatal, it's at least going to make the antagonist a lot easier to get away from.
Alan Arkin! LOL. Was "Marly & Me" that scary?
Well, I was thinking Wait Until Dark.
I am the guy who, after seeing some thriller about an endangered housewife with with my mom, advised her that instead of pummeling a hypothetical attacker's chest helplessly she would do well to pop his eyes with her thumbnails and then grab a fire extinguisher and hit him in the head until things stop crunching and start making squishy noises.
I'm telling you, I'm running toward the buffistas houses at sign 2 that the apocalypse has started. I'm a gatherer and organizer, but not the best tactician.
I still think my moat strategy for self protection has a lot of virtue.
trust me. I will be knocking on your door yelling complete sentences!
Oh, and let me put in a good word for Mira Grant's Feed novel, which does a good job of working out a consistent SFnal zombie-plagued world. (Working in a hospital becomes very interesting where the dead rise rather quickly....)
