Clique psychology and group think Night of the Living Dead, 1968
Fcuk it,  let’s go shopping! Dawn of the Dead, 1978 “ I’ve always felt that the real horror is next door to us, that the scariest monsters are our neighbors. It’s been a theme throughout my work - to bring the horror into our own homes, to fill the stories with brand names that we all use, beers that we all like to drink, streets that look like our own.” - George A. Romero
Mean people suck… on this! Night of the Comet, 1984
We live in a mad mad mad mad mad world… Day of the Dead, 1985
Remember that Prom date from H-E-double hockey sticks. Night of the Creeps, 1986

We want brains we can believe in. The Crazies, 1973 The Crazies, 2010
We fear others and ourselves especially.  You have to laugh to keep from crying. Zombie Pseudo Science, 2009
We are all miscellaneous and loosely connected. I Can Has Cheeszburger, Twitter, Lost zombies, 2008-2009
1 year ago last week: Crash!   I blacked out and woke up as a Middle Aged Zombie in downtown Charlotte, NC
That’s funny I don’t feel dead. Bite me world! Zombies Take Charlotte,  February 2009
I met George  Freaking  Romero! American Zombie – Film Festival Stay scared. Zombies don’t skate. (or run) Forget that zombie survival kit – buy a shotgun.
Rule 4: Seatbelts. Rule 7: Travel light. Rule 8: Get a Kick-ass partner. Rule 16: Work as a team. Rule 19: Always carry a change of underwear. Rule 31: Check the backseat. Rule 34: Enjoy the little things. Zombieland, 2009
(I'm gonna thrill ya tonight) Darkness falls across the land The midnight hour is close at hand Creatures crawl in search of blood To terrorize y'alls neighborhood Thriller, 1983 Due to my strong personal convictions, I wish to stress that this Ignite presentation in no way endorses a belief in the occult.
