romero to boyle and back again

If this article is at all accurate in its hypothesis that fast moving zombies are about the individual, whereas the slow masses of old were exactly that: the masses. And that we as a culture are tending towards the quick paced fiends... Is Hollywood then really just telling us to fear the individual? Safety in numbers, but the solo man can kill?

I love zombie movies. So cleanly and bluntly they've managed to illustrate our move out of the cold war mentality and into the lone man on a hijacked plane paranoia.

Or else CGI just looks better at a faster clip.
