Dawn of the Dead (1978)

Come to Pittsburgh! Bottle Rocket is a UCB affiliate now :) https://www.bottlerocketpgh.com

My wife calls Justin Long her favourite Scream Queen/King.

Josh Harnett is a scream king. Got an "introducing credit" in H20. Been in multiple horror movies.

Would love an octooky collection.

Not in New York, but I was chased by Guardian Angels in Tokyo in the early 2000s. Got away from them too.

I did the full Walking Dead watch through of all seasons & spin-offs last year! Hadn’t seen any of it when it first aired. I had a pretty good time! But I think it’s more of an indictment of the lack of good TV on now that I was so taken by its many many seasons of 16+ 1hr-long episodes per season. Fun supporting cast with lots of ABZ character actor greats popping in over the years like Michael Rooker, Noah Emmerich, Scott Wilson, so many more. Gale Ann Hurd’s involvement definitely brings some treats for us freaks with cameos from ppl like Michael Biehn, Robert Patrick, Xander Berkeley (TODD from T2!) lol

I would get a kick out of a Pittsburgh Collection on the Patreon

Anyone ever play Dead Rising? Basically this movie as a video game

The “To Live and Die in LA” breadcrumbing continues

When the Big Boss Man left the WWF and went to WCW, at first they called him The Boss and he wore a darker prison guard shirt. WWF threatened to sue so WCW turned him into The Guardian Angel. He had the red beret and the whole deal. They did vignettes with Sliwa, I think. It stunk.

Funny whitest kids u know sketch with Zach Cregger as a general giving a press conference about zombie outbreak. https://youtu.be/hT7FikOeSwk?si=GIx2Ptj9iaQX5F6N

Zombie teeth are as sharp as regular teeth. Why couldn’t I get a couple layers of carhart, goalie mask and leather gloves?

Ken Foree has an awesome small part in the remake, chilling line read as a televangelist "when hell is full". I enjoyed the remake even though running zombies are bs, Rigor Mortis would prevent them from running.

Hilarious you bring up John Cusack as a Scream King. He was at a horror fest I worked at last month and all of us were struggling to think of horror movies he’s been in

I'm out here in the midwest but I know a guy from New York who was a Guardian Angel (or at least says he was). He would sometimes come in to where I work with a T-Shirt that says something to the effect of, "If we put down animals who attack people, we should be able to just execute pedophiles!" One time there was a storm that knocked down a giant tree branch in front of a customer's car, and he went out to help move the branch away. He scratched his arm moving the branch, and very proudly came inside to show off his "battle scar" and exclaimed "Hey, Once an Angel, always an Angel!"

Saw this for the first time in middle school. My brothers friend let me borrow the VHS. Core memory

Scream kings: Ethan Hawke Justin Long Tony Todd Bruce Campbell (he was in Maniac Cop besides just the Evil Dead movies) Patrick Wilson Devon Sawa Kyle Gallner is the current Scream King

Live show in Pittsburgh would be incredible. Bloodsucking Pharoahs of Pittsburgh is a good watch for folks like b-movie horror comedy.

-BQ BK Bites -Not Dennis Miller -----(higher register) -----(doesn't say 'christ's sake') -is bad

That Sean Clements improv zombie fan fiction story is an all timer. One of us sick freaks need to find it

New favorite episode unlocked. Dawn of the dead was a constant point of discussion for me and my friends back when we were kids. I think it's about time for a rewatch.

Stanger channeling the Michael Jackson avatar from Cafe 80's in Back to the Future 2 when he was pitching his BK zombie bites.

Drive-thru car wash a pleasure as a kid?! Stanger, always a pleasure.

In 2008 I was at a screening of Dawn inside of Monroeville Mall. Unfortunately mall management wouldn't allow the event organizers to turn down the mall lights. It was a complete disaster. Nothing being projected onto the giant inflatable screen was visible and people were asking for their $5 charity donation/ticket expense back.

Dracula's familiar is now Brad Renfro? Also, Cusack did have a bit of a scream king run in the mid/late 00's

Also saw Spamalot on Broadway. Had Tim Curry and David Hyde Pierce in the cast.

Curtis Sliwa spoke at my high school. It was an unhinged assembly the entire school was at. It was in NJ in the late 90s. Same high school Joe Piscopo and David Chase went to.

The story behind DAWN's rights issues are wiiiiild. The producer, Richard Rubinstein, retained the rights to a lot of Romero's post-NOTLD output, and he was licensing DAWN for home video releases left and right in the '00s. But in the late '10s/early '20s, he spent a substantial amount of money on the digital 3D conversion process to create a 3D version of DAWN. It had a premiere in South Korea, and the reactions I've heard to it vary wildly. Essentially, the reason we haven't seen more of DAWN on bluray, 4K and streaming is because Rubinstein is holding onto to it until he makes the money he spent back.

Justin Long is a scream king, in my opinion. He has around 12+ horror movies on his IMDb

Does Army of Darkness count as a medieval zombie movie?

I guess I gotta re-activate my cam-boy account to make people listen to the Boyz

I also thought Steve was in bed with a mannequin at first. I would probably be at that stage by day 2 so I wasn't judging.

I live right next to Fort Myers where parts of Day Of The Dead was filmed. They had a yearly block party called Zombicon that ran for a while until there was a shooting during it 10 years ago.

Hell yeah

For what it’s worth, I’ve lived in New York City since ‘99, and I’ve only even seen a Guardian Angel on TV.

I love the zombie who grabs the rifle when they’re trying to close the door. That extra had a blast looking in the barrel then comes back in other scenes.

Dennis Miller, FROM PITTSBURGH CHA CHA!

Sometimes you've got to F a G. -Stanger

I think Gabrus would like this movie, "Primitive War". Dinosaurs in the Vietnam War: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixXxdWY6d68

Grew up going to Monroeville Mall. Saw Savini strolling through there a couple of times just shopping. They had these 'zombie walks' around Halloween in celebration of the movie. Apparently the mall is going to get torn down after being bought by Walmart. Also, yes please do a show in Pittsburgh!

Crystal Pepsi human giant story again but we can't get a shout out to your 6th @ctionboyz? Yo main man easy peasy Ranniziziz?! Still love you all, #neverforget

I don’t have a porn on deck, but I’m submitting my first feature film to film festivals now (I shot it 20 years ago, abandoned it but now finished it with a new “20 years later” ending) my character drives from San Francisco to Louisville, Kentucky. Can I put “WELCOME TO ACTION BOYZ!!” and “I’m friends with your salad, remember?” in the background? 🥗

The ABZ Mall and Grocery Store Theory is one of my favorites; I think about it every time I put on the Pluto TV Supermarket Sweep channel

I saw Curtis Sliwa on the train a couple of months ago downtown. He wears a jacket with his name on it "Curtis." At every stop he has a pow-wow with other Guardian Angels that run from other cars to his car. They hold the doors open to complete their little meeting and then get back on the train. He then spends the ride looking at his phone like anyone else. To conduct my own counter-surveillance, I took a picture of him when he wasn't looking.

RIP to the White House screening room where Kennedy watched all those Bond movies. Trump probably destroyed it as revenge for someone asking him to stop texting during a screening.

I saw Curtis Sliwa on the subway in full guardian angel attire (red beret and red varsity jacket) just staring daggers at some unhoused guy asking for change, watching like a bird of prey. God I hope he doesn’t get elected mayor.

I was just thinking about people not even being able to stand in a line the right way, these people drive too. Like 50% of drivers are absolutely dog shit. Like 10% are actively dangerous

Here are some newer interviews with cast and crew: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmxCoWlhEbBtKYaDUcMyK6NP7-PMgTznt&si=fXOjOBFHKxtOoqkk

"I left janitors behind." "Real janitors, or street janitors?" "Both."

Thank you for this episode.

I used to crank it to the pod then Stangerbot stopped showing up and now I'm perma-soft.
