Some stuff.

As I knew I would be going away for a week I wanted to get ahead of everyone else before I left so when I came back I would not be inundated with work.

Something im kind of regretting. As before I left I posted a huge post on all the social commentary in the films that I knew of. So now ive not got much to write about. So I am going to describe how I intend for my presentation to go.

First off I will introduce the director briefly with some notes on the screen and verbally fill in some gaps. I will then introduce the three focus films Night, Dawn and Day. I will use brief on screen notes to introduce them and verbally tell of others. These slides will be followed by descriptions of the social commentary with in the films which I will build upon verbally.

After I have finished the three focus films I intend to do some criticism of Romero's wok in the form of Land of the Dead and how it, well, sucked. I also might touch upon Diary of the Dead and tell of how Romero has tried new things to reinvigorate his sub-genre and whether it worked or not?

I will then go on to the films that the Dead series has influenced such as Zombi 2 and pretty much any other horror film where the cast are stuck in one place and being attacked by something evil really. Don't worry it won't be that vague during the presentation.

I will also through out be using pictures.

I will introduce the films with their posters, ala;


night of the living dead Dawn Of The Dead

Also I am currently in the process of downloading youtube videos in order to implement them into my presentation. Its a case of finding the videos though,


Thats all for now.
