In the last 10 years we've had:
28 Days Later... (2002) - IMDb
Dawn of the Dead (2004) - IMDb
Diary of the Dead (2007) - IMDb
Doomsday (2008) - IMDb
Doghouse (2009) - IMDb
The Road (2009) - IMDb
The Book of Eli (2010) - IMDb
Zombieland (2009) - IMDb
Shaun of the Dead (2004) - IMDb
Dead Set (TV mini-series 2008) - IMDb
Battle: Los Angeles (2011) - IMDb
Skyline (2010) - IMDb
Monsters (2010) - IMDb
District 9 (2009) - IMDb
And those are just the ones off the top of my head. There's probably another 50 I've failed to mention.
Yet, despite all these promises we're left with the drudgery of working, crap TV, a few weeks holiday a year, taxes on tax, false wars on crime/terror/climate/[whatever else the govermin can dream up].
Maybe the anarchy of recent weeks was a missed opportunity to fast forward to the promised land. Instead we have the slow decline of western civilisation to endure, even if the end result will be much the same.
Where are the aliens, zombies, mad chemists? We need saving from ourselves. I have a stockpile of tinfoil hats I'm trying to sell.

Much prefer zombies to vampires and werewolves. Some new monsters would be good though. Need a new CUK thread where we can suggest new ones.
There is a great tourist thing in Glasgow with monsters we took our kids to decades ago. Can't remember what it's called.Last edited by xoggoth; 24 December 2020, 17:02.bloggoth
