Insight into Hinzman moving fast in Night

[DawnGirl27]

Could be the feeding on warm flesh thing. Thank the Lord I'm cold-blooded.....! I'll be part of an advance scout team - they'll never even know I'm there.

Thank the Lord I'm cold-blooded.....! . And that differentiates you from other women how? j/k

[DawnGirl27]

Good one; I can appreciate that. Let it be said, however, that I am unlike the stereotypical women who ride the emotional rollercoaster through life and make men wince. I am the laid back type, that gets along better with the guys (or females like me who are pretty mellow). So give it - I can take it (and give it back)...

[NOTLDC5]

Don't get me wrong....Memories change and theirs could be blurry, but what other facts would we as fans have? Yeah, you talked to one member of the crew, but who's to say that he's correct and the only one thats correct? . Fans can be pretty resourceful - You'd be surprised what some can have. It just depends how much time one devotes to research.

And as a law student i can testify to the fact that eyewitness testimony is notoriously the most unreliable. If we sat and listened to savini and GAR reminisce about the dawn shoot we'd be lucky if a fraction of it was accurate. Jeez, have you ever seen the ultimate edition commentary with them and chris/ They struggle to remember details that we could come up with in a split second. I'll take bassman's word over theirs any day.

You know, every girl I know says this. dude that's hilarious and true. It seems as if no woman sees themself that way. But i believe dawngirl is an honorable woman so i'll take her word for it. But as for hinzman in night, it could be said that GAR is the father of the runner and shambler genres.

But as for hinzman in night, it could be said that GAR is the father of the runner and shambler genres. Well, Romero is more the father of the shambler and light jogging genres. LMAO!

I know a lot of girls say they are; those are the ones who talk big and can't carry it off, and give the rest of us a bad name with you guys... And to darth - thanks.

[EvilNed]

Well, Romero is more the father of the shambler and light jogging genres. LMAO! Ah, the fun-runner zombies...

He said that GAR said something to the effect of "**** it, it will be cool!" Such a double edged sword. On the one hand we ended up with the best trio of zombie movies ever largely due to that fun-loving, risk-taking attitude. On the other hand it's also how we ended up with underwater-walking, angst-ridden, zombies. @DawnGirl27 - I believe you. I have a wonderful wife who rarely has mood swings and is easy to hang out with. You can't blame these guys for their opinions though. A lot of guys who aren't very good with women only tend to see the bad ones.

Now what strikes me is how the zombies got more powerful in Day compared to Dawn....case in point: fireman zombie that gets stuck in the pen in Day, goes bloody mental and starts smashing himself about inside it before Steele hooks him....can you see a Dawn zombie doing that? Nope...much slower.... I always put the listlessness of Dawn's mall zombies, compared to Day zombies or even the apartment block zombies at the start of the Dawn, down to the "memerizing" effect of the bright lights, colours, advertising, etc. of the mall. It sort of fits with what Romero was trying to say with regards to the dehumanising effect of consumerism. Kinda like the sky-flowers in Land of the Dead.

Never thought of that for Dawn, and could lend some credence to their slowness. That does seem to be a big part of what ticks Big Daddy off in Land when the sky flowers go off during the raiding party and the other zeds are zoned out. He gets the connection and is actually disgusted by how easily the others are distracted, and thus killed. So what eventually makes the zombies not care about the sky flowers anymore near the end of Land? Their "awakening" by Big Daddy's actions?

That is a good point but as always isn't consistent with every scenario in the film. Look no further than the Hare Krishna zombie. There was food right in his face and he was perhaps the most listless zombie in the series. But i like the theory.
