Saw it on Saturday/ I hadn't realised that it was based on a book. I quite enjoyed the movie & thought Smith did a good job. Going & reading about the book I can see how you'd be disappointed. I'll need to look for that. Interesting idea.


I also enjoyed it because my girlfriend suggested going to see a zombie flick! I tried to warn her, but she didn't believe me. She hates zombie movies. :)

I was saying that I never got the impression from the trailers that it was a horror.

Roll on the zombies; I fell in love with Vampires after Salem's lot and Fright Night, Zombies with Return of the living dead that progressed me to the night/dawn/day of the dead films....marvellous.

Thence to the wonderful evil dead/army of darkness trilogy....masterful.

The book has "them" as reasonably intelligent zombies. This current version has some god-awful CGI zombie/orc things


Totally with you on the roll call of films/books tho mockers. Vampire mythology received a big boost with Brian Lumley's Necroscope books in the 80s/90s but he milked the whole thing dry. I must revisit the first one again now you (well I) mention it....


in the meantime I shall remind myself by visiting


here


ooh those names still give me a chill

    • I remember seeing something a few years ago on TV about a fox that was actually biting through people's shopping / takeaway food bags.  It was situated in an alleyway.  Not in London.  Very interesting in how the  urban foxes brain development has  been affected by their surroundings.   Not an exact quote from Darwin.  It's the adaptable that survive / not the strongest or the most intelligent.   I would be worried if a fox came close me.   Because they might be after my fur babies and they carry a lot of nasties.   Although they look beautiful from a distance or on a 🎄 card.  
    • Driving down Lordship lane around 2.45pm today saw a v sick looking fox walking in and out of the crowd. 
    • I know I'm a bit premature but don't want to forget through too much Chrisntas cheer! Southwark Council Christmas trees recycling arrangements 2025 - bit worrying for the future that they're emphasising the free bit. "We’ll collect and recycle your real Christmas tree for free!  Trees should not be taller than 5ft. You should chop any taller trees into smaller pieces. Remove all decorations and the pot or stand and recycle it by: putting your tree with your garden waste containers on collection day requesting a free collection if you do not have a garden waste collection  taking it to our Reuse and Recycling Centre [43 Devon Street, SE15 1AL open 08:30-16:30 Mon-Sun] If you live in a flat you must leave the tree: outside on the kerb visible for the collection crew not in a bin store" I'll add the link to the collection booking service when it opens on 22 December. 
    • Most homes in East Dulwich / Good Green ward have collections on Tuesdays or Wednesdays. So no changes for them this year.  But for those few local homes with collections normally on Thursdays or Friday, with Christmas, Boxing day happening on Thursday and Friday any blue, brown or green bin collections will be delayed by two days. So Thursday 25 December collections will be on Saturday 27 December and Friday 26 December collections on Sunday 28 December. For New Years day those Thursday collections will be on the Friday 2 January and those with normal collections of Fridays that will be on Saturday 3 January. To double check when your Southwark Council rubbish, recycling, food waste, garden waste collections will be taking place please please check here - https://services.southwark.gov.uk/bins/lookup
