Marathon of Madness

Inland Empire


Fuck this three hour garbage movie.

Night of the Living Dead

Oddly fitting to me that the movie that ends my marathon is the one that sort of started it all in some ways. It made the zombie genre in film and paved the way for non-Hollywood endings, extreme gore, bitter confrontations and the lumbering enemies we all know and love. While this movie isn't really up on my list in quality I have to give it points for originality, moreso based on the budget of the film. The indie budget really shows in the gore and acting department which is often below average or borderline terrible. The best part about this movie is the pacing though, and how information is fed to us. I love the radio and tv bits, I love the speculation, and the mystery. The radiation copout was lame and never again picked up as a handle for a zombie movie and I can easily see why.

But really why this review is so special... its the end of the marathon folks. Its over. The results topic will be made shortly.
