I used to freak the fuck out every time I saw him when I watched Return of the Living Dead as a kid. He’s still scary. Imagine finding him in your basement.

>scariest zombie put to film
>created for a goofy satiric comedy
just makes him all the more endearing desu

imagine sneeding feed in your seed

Makes him all the more interesting

You just need a baseball bat to knock his head off.

They ought to make a prequel about he ended up in the US army engineering corps barrel

Is this theoretically the scariest possible zombie apocalypse? Like theres literally no way to win.

They did get it under control the first time it happened before events of the first film, at least if the story told in the movie before intro music is to be believed

And indeed, the army literally had dedicated telephone line just for reporting this exact type of containment failure

>Imagine finding him in your basement.
Imagine how he's feeling, the zombies in return of the living dead are not only intelligent, they experience pain

incineration. if they herd all the zombies together using simple distraction tactics and vent the smoke into a sealed/contained area it's a victory.

Did you not watch the movie?

the only reason the incineration failed initially is because the smoke was vented into the atmosphere

>"general, the forward unit is requesting that we send more distractions"
>"sure thing, thats not suspicious at all"

It's all getting out of control at the end of the first film, they nuked the zombos and it's heavily implied St Louis metro area is getting the fallout rain along with zombie toxins

The first time I saw him was in a RLM video and I swear it shocked me even in that context. He's fucking terrifying.

I like RLM but still, shame on you for not watching the film as a kid and being terrified beyond belief. My mom showed it to me when i was like 9, never saw it again until the scream factory blu ray release in 2016. I was 24 by then and could really enjoy the film. I see it every 4th of july and October now.

Cool fucking story. Yeah, I was a dumbass as a kid for not seeking this out, even though I had never heard about it.

Thanks, sucks i didn't have the courage to see it sooner. My mom had an awesome vhs clamshell copy of it that was in perfect condition and was probably only played when she first showed me. She ended up selling it in a garage sale.

he was being mean to you user but it makes me happy you're innocent enough to not even realize

Bruh that was already explained in the movie. The chemical leaked down to the morgue and the bodies came back, that's what the barrel zombies are.

What about if they just crushed them into pulp?

Yes and no. If the sequel is to be considered canon, there was no additional fallout. Also at the end of the workprint there's a longer epilogue that says all the contaminated soil from the entire was loaded into rail cars and left abandoned in rural South Dakota.

Guess my love for the film blinded me.

It scared the shit out me as a kid since there was no real plausible way to destroy them, they were highly intelligent and that could run as fast as humans. I still hold my breath when going past a cemetery to this day as a result of that movie, always afraid that swamp gas is the trioxin.

Not even the dawn of the dead remake scared me as much as a kid as ROTLD did. Silly now that i look back.

retard

Not so silly to me, ROTLD has the scariest zombies of any film. The intelligence is the scary shit since they were even calling people into the cemetery just to get them.

cute post

For me it was the EMTs not getting a pulse and them all realizing they're dead.

Scary shit

When it first came out DVD you could get it with a glow in the dark cover.

The realization was really neat. The way Bernie checks them and concludes it's rigor mortis and all the blood pooling in their bodies, pretty damn spooky.

Do you wanna party user? It's party time

I think the actor under the prosthetics is amazing, the way he moves is what freaked me out most as a kid.

The actor is actually a puppeteer for The Muppets too lel. He's a super lanky guy IRL so he fit nicely into the costume.

Sweet, need to look that up.

Mulch them, freeze the zombie mush, and store in deep vaults.

That makes so much sense. Only someone like that could have such an excellent understanding of posing and movement. So expressive and creepy.
