I must have been sick the week we covered this in my American History class.
lol. I saw the trailer yesterday -you have to admit, it's er ... interesting in its own way.

I'm pretty burned out on the whole "undead" movie genre, vampires, zombies, walking undead, etc. What we need is some good, old fashioned, campy 50's style sci-fi like this one from May of '58:
some buttered popcorn and a Coke.
Cheers.

Or some good, old western. Lately there have been zombies or aliens or ninjas in western movies, too.

how about Space Nazi's from the Moon?

I see your call and raise you:
-
Zombie Strippers.
Hell I was I was in a band that played in a club behind them I'm quite sure.

Then what should one say about this?
-
"Clenching is futile."

Derren Brown hypnotizes a guy into believing a zombie arcade game is real, I'd poop myself if it happened to me.

I don't have much to comment about camp horror films. . .but I did want to add a bit of insight into the histrionics of Old Abe as a Vampire Hunter. I am sure that a good deal of the movie is steeped in documented historical fact. (Heck, I bet you can take a course on it at Georgetown) but there was one slight historical hiccup I caught when watching the trailer the other night with my son . . .
The Washington Monument didnt look like this during Lincoln's lifeteime. Its construction was suspended during the Civil War and wasn't dedicated until about 1884. Other than that. . .I am sure the rest of the movie is entirely accurate and meaningful and will be of immense benefit in the instruction of history to our Young People.
[Edit} ps. .. does this mean that Booth used a silver bullet?
-
The monument looks like a giant wooden stake.
-
You beat me to it.
-
I always thought it was George Washington that was rather handy with and axe?
-
True but he chased after trolls and sprites but come on, who wants to see a movie about that?
