Zombie!
After a long day of hard work here at the Planetarium office, we decided to unwind with a viewing of the 1979 Lucio Fulci film Zombie. We were drawn to the film by the promise of one thing, and one thing alone:
ZOMBIE VS. SHARK FIGHT! ZOMBIE VS. SHARK FIGHT! ZOMBIE VS. SHARK FIGHT!
Sad to say, we were quite disappointed by this film. Aside from the anticipated scene, this movie was a lame knock-off of the undisputed master of Italian absurdist horror, Dario Argento. (If you haven't seen it yet, go rent Opera right now, you fool). You may know his daughter, Asia Argento, a very attractive- and totally demented- filmmaker in her own right. You may have seen her as Vin Diesel's co-star in XXX. Must be an odd family, seeing as how Dad also directed her in his own film, The Stendhal Syndrome, notable for it's very graphic rape of his daughter. ANyhoo, despite the fabulous notion of a zombie fighting a shark, we must sadly say, you should pass on this one. Sigh....

Here's another movie review, aka the most vile thing I've seen from this presidency:
