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

ooh those names still give me a chill

    • A slightly vulnerable but hopeful post… Hi everyone, I’m a guy in my mid-thirties who’s recently moved back to London and East Dulwich (I previously lived here for many years before, so I know the area well). But if I’m honest, I’ve found the return a little tough. Most of my close friends have moved out of London to start families — totally understandable — but it’s left me feeling a bit adrift and not quite sure how to make new connections again. Work has taken up a huge chunk of my life in recent years, and I’ve definitely let hobbies, interests and a proper social life fall by the wayside. I feel like I went from a fun social life in my 20’s to suddenly blinking and realising things had gone a bit er…quiet. So, I’m trying to redress the balance a bit — mainly so myself and my partner don’t murder each other 😂, and just to meet some new local faces. I was wondering: is anyone else in a similar boat? And would there be any interest in starting a relaxed, low-key local social group? Could be a casual pub meet, sports, park hangouts, live comedy nights — open to ideas!  I’m happy to do the organising/admin side of things — just wanted to put it out there and see if there’s any appetite. I’ll gauge interest and take it from there.  If you’d prefer not to reply publicly, feel free to drop me a DM.  Cheers all! 👋

    • Same reason there are several pizza places and Indian restaurants?
