Am I right in assuming that the guy who wrote this book is basically saying "See the zombies and the horrible things they do? That's what's waiting for you in Hell if you don't repent!"

If so, geeessuz :rolleyes:.

The funny thing is that a guy who is apparently super religious would use the topic of "George Romero Dead Films" as a basis for advancing his Christian values. Very funny actually!:)

The book sounds interesting and with it been seen through a devout Christian's eyes is original. So far, reviews on Amazon don't have the book taking on the extreme evangelical slant blaming the stuff on the films on everything from abortion to gay marriages. I may just get this book to see what all the hub-bub is about.

This book actually has very intelligent analysis of all 4 GAR Dead films plus Dawn 04. Not a very religious book in my opinion. He does refer often to Dante's Inferno and tries to tie each film to those themes. Very interesting.

Nice generalization there, pal.
