Night Of The Living Bread.

The other day [livejournal.com profile] lizibabes and I had a long back-and-forth about bad horror vs good horror - (I learned that "Return of the Living Dead", my all-time fav cult classic horror film, has two sequels. Count 'em, two. I'm not sure how I feel about that) - and natural disaster movies and all our comfort flicks.

Then we talked for a second about the original "Night of the Living Dead" and how it was way ahead of its time. And I got to remembering this short parody film I saw years ago. In high school, my little brother's bff was really into horror films - (he always did the makeup for our homemade horror movies we used to make). Anyways, he got his hands on the boxed set special edition VHS - (yes, it was long enough ago that it was still a VHS tape) - of "Night of the Living Dead". It had this short film on it called "Night of the Living Bread". He was particularly excited about it because it was filmed on the same college campus where his mom went to college and she remembered it being filmed.

So I went and tracked it down on youtube for your pleasure. And if you still haven't ever seen the original "Night of the Living Dead...well, you should, but this parody will still be funny regardless.

I give you "Night Of The Living Bread"!



And in addition...HAPPY BIRTHDAY [livejournal.com profile] lizibabes. I hope it was a wickedly awesome day, darling!

Glad to hear the birthday went well, babe! <3

Night of the Living Bread still amuses me all these years later! When the brother's bff brought it to my attention, I was in the middle of writing a script for a short film called Night of the Living Bed - where everyone gets attacked by mattresses - now I'm wondering if I still have a copy of that script somewhere.

thanks!!

Night of the living bed, killer mattresses, that sounds like it would be so funny.

You'd be totally screwed if you worked any where that sells beds.

I just pulled out my script folder and found Night of the Living Beds. At the end, the lone survivor answers the door to find a delivery man standing there - delivering a mattress. Lone survivor dies. lol

LMAO that sounds so funny and perfect. Crack, but totally classic horror/scify story. The bluff that someone might live and then killing them off :D
