I'm watching Day of the Dead of 2008 and... Wait. Wait just one goddamn minute. Is that... Nate?
Fuck.
It's not enough I'm perfectly aware the movie is not good, there have to be actor I know and *read a lot of porn about* on cast. And wearing uniform. *Again*
Because all I needed was to associate GK with yet another thing I love. Universe clearly is of mind I'm not crazy enough for fics of this show, it wants me to crave zombie!us now. Like there isn't any already.
God, I'm barely five minutes into the movie... This is going to be hell. On wheels. For my associative abilities.
Fuck it. I'm recaping. Because why not?
So, there is this... werehouse? Old barm? There's kids being kids inside. Then we cut to some town where... stuff goes on? Some weird exposition. Fat guy on the radio (he's awesome but probably too fat to run away so I'm waiting to watch him being ripped to shreds) threatening some young soldier with Celine Dion. Nice.
Black guy... Who I think played Candyman at some point of time? Blond army!chick, sick kid, some People Who Will Be Bestially Killed By Zombies [TM].
Some New Unit with Newby (oh my god...) appears. They all will die too probably. (Nate... ripped apart by zombies while there is no... other part of the pairing around. I need to learn what the character name is or I might cry.)
On 00:11:28 some woody, expository dialog happens. (No, I'm not going to point that out every time. What's the point?) Some chick died already. I think some fucking fast zombie didn't liked her... Tramp-stamp? Was that what that piece of flesh was? All is good. Zombies are on it's way.
Wait. Wiki just told me Nate's name is Bud here. As in... Bud the vegetarian!zombie? (No, I don't know what I'm talking out. Yet) Universe really wants me *more* deprived? Well, it's going to get it's way. (It always does...)
He's so adorable! And his ears... Whatever. I'm calming up now. No more inappropriate comments about ears. Not one more. (Lie!)
Camera should stay away from him, and he should not speak or I can not watch this movie in a civilized way. (Oh this whole post is going to go over just peachy...)
00:14:14
I like army!chick. Hate the way Na... Bud leer at her. Are they going to make me hate the character I loved by default? This.. would be interesting. I may like it.
Also, her reaction to teenage!make-out session was inappropriate.
00:15:02
"It's a cold." Right. I thought I would like camera - work judging by intro scene but... no. It's way too peculiar.
00:15:47
So it was afternoon - not midday just now. Good to know. (I like the mountain shot. Garnet and red. Nice.)
00:17:36
This guy... He does *such* a good job of looking sixteen. How does he do that? How old is he here?! Wait. This movie is from the same year as GK. He's 30 here. Maybe 29. And yet still inexplicably 16. This is talent. (Yes, there are human carcases in the shot. But I don't actually go for immobile carcasses. I want my zombies)
00:20:55
Hospital! It's going to be overrun! (I don't like how excited I am about that. I know how primitive this whole thing is and yet I love it! Love!)
00:22:20
Oh. This thing is actually pretty creepy. They start to cough, bleed, they freeze up and then... Oh then. (I love zombies. Also, his eyes, they are So Big) Oh. No. No no no. Black guy is not the Candyman guy. I like him anyway.
00:23:52
Bu! That was awesome followed by meh. Awesome: how does the zombiefying agent works inside the brain? Meh: welts and other physical characteristics appear too fast! Not cool!
00:25:30
Em... Cool.
No. I'm serious. The "suddenly there is metric fucktone of zombies *everywhere*" plot device works for me here. People got sick, then zombiefied - into fast, aggressive, cannibalistic monsters - then light went out. *Awesome*
00:26:17
Are those zombies cooperating? As in: working together towards common goal in equal measure in a manner requiring brain function? (Suddenly I feel less perverted about wanting porn) Fat guy is alive yet. Soldier is dead. I liked the soldier... Even if he was an idiot.
00:35:28
Tak, tak. Znowu kanały wentylacyjne w których zmieściłby się Bruce Willis ze słoniem i składem porcelany.
00:41:55
I... can't tell is fat guy is going to become some really badass zombie or is just dying of cancer.
00:45:09
Hm. I prefer slow, shambling zombies to these seething, fast and athletic ones. They might look rotting but they move and behave like aggressive, irrational *people*. I don't like my zombies human-like.
00:46:45
So... Zombiefying agent makes carcasses flammable and explosive? That's... convenient. (Their's heads explode! WTF?) Also they have short attention spans. That's also convenient.
00:48:39
Oh Nate... Don't cry. (I need to ask GK fandom If I missed any fics that explore zombie!Nate idea. I'm all fucking for it and they haven't let me down yet.)
00:49:30
Thinking zombies. How come I don't have anything against porning them but generally don't like the idea? What kind of zombie climbs? Climbing zombie? No. Zombie shambles around. That's what zombie does. But they never, never *stop* and that makes them scary.
00:54:00
Zombie!Nate is so adorable! So very, very adorable! Monkey faces may not suit him but whatever. Also, what is army!girl thinking? You have a Zombie in the back seat! What are you planning to do with him? And... Um. Gas?
00:58:55
An she sat her younger brother next to zombiefied person. Hm. I *really* like army!girl. In different set of circumstances I would have another het to ship.
00:59:27
Adorable! And cute. So very, very cute. Also, abusing zombies? It should not be as hot as it is. Especially if it's the other black guy doing it. (God I am perverted, deprived and also voyeuristic. I hope GK has some zombie!porn but... I don't actually think they are *that* crazy in there.)
01:03:45
Ah the never ending bullets... The vegetarian!zombie... Army!girl... This movie is seriously better than I thought.
01:04:04
I also like how she... don't care. At all. Outside the realm of human decency. If zombie-Army!girl gentle-let-down scene is coming this movie will soar into previously unpenetrated levels of awesome. (It's not. Because Army!girl, as is established, does not care. And I like her for it)
01:06:01
Mom? Seriously?
01:07:57
Secret Government Facility (Patently not!Named Umbrella). Who is surprised? Romero's Radiation from outer space (or Venus) of '68 was way classier.
01:11:24
"My beautiful weapon"? Really. If this movie wants to be taken seriously it should at least try not to be ridiculous beyond all reason so near the ending...
01:15:00
Yes. Split into two teams. Trained soldiers on the right and teenagers on the left. Probability of survival needs to be even right? Oh, but look! One of the soldiers isn't white! I wonder who is going to die next. I really just can't say.
The very end
Why is the ending so week? I know finishing things is hard but hot damn this movie shown potential and now it's flushing it down the toilet... Or, in other words, I don't like the ...*BOO!* effects. It's way, way to cheap.
So. The movie, where we had zombie!Nate? Not very good overall. I liked lots of things about it, but good movie? It was not. Good zombie!movie? Not really either. Just... Nice little picture to relax to? Whatever. Zombie!Nate is going to be center of my attention during nearing egzam!session.
Now, of to ask GK if I missed any Zombie!Nate/Brad.
