4 was in 3D? I think you're thinking of 6. No? Or was 4 in 3D and I never knew it?

[TEKTORO]

It's been awhile but I'm pretty sure I remember pissy flames coming at me. Lol

I'll see if I can find any info on this, I used to go to UA (United Artist) theatres where I grew up.

[noiseredux]

well Nightmare 4 was 1988. Freddy's Dead was 91. I know 100% that 6 was 3D, and even was released that way on DVD. If 4 was in 3D, it's actually news to me, shun. Is possible that maybe a dog really did pee fire on you back then and you're confused?

[Ack]

The Video Dead

It's the day before the marathon starts, so let's watch a film that won't be allowed!

The Video Dead was a direct-to-video release about a haunted television that has the power to unleash zombies into the world. Said television accidentally gets delivered to an author's house instead of an institute for the occult, and zombies climb out in the middle of the night. A corporation buys the house for a family, but the television remains. When the teenage children move in early, they discover the television...and as a result, they soon discover its secret. Between the haunted TV and the zombies that have escaped it and are now roaming the woods, they're soon stuck in a dire situation in which no one will escape unbroken.

Yep, it's a zombie movie, but certainly a unique one in its approach to the walking dead. First, they're shamblers, but they're intelligent, with the rudimentary ability to use tools and stalk prey. More importantly though, they cannot be killed through normal means. Destroying the brain does nothing, decapitation does not stop them, and dismemberment only means there are more pieces moving around. Instead they can only be tricked into thinking they have died, or they can be scared off by seeing their reflections and discovering the things they have become, and they do not attack people who are unafraid of them. They know they are dead but do not want to believe it, so they hate the living and anything that reminds them of their deaths. In the end, the only thing to do is lock them in a room from which they cannot escape, because this will make the television recall them and the zombie movie that it shows will end. These guys are complicated and weird, but man, they're a nasty looking bunch.

I gotta give the film credit for being creative, even if it is weird. The television's power is never explained, nor is the man trapped inside who seems to know what is going on. Really we don't know if it's the TV or the movie it shows that is really the culprit. Also, despite the likable characters, this is one of those movies where people just don't make it. Don't get attached to anyone, but everyone is doomed, some in some nasty ways. Evil Dead 2 had a headless undead with a chainsaw. Can you guess what The Video Dead manages to copy to bloody effect?

Hey, if you like low-budget zombie films but want something beyond the norm, see if you can track this one down. It's worth it for genre fans just for its weirdness. Scream Factory released it as part of a two-pack special edition DVD or Blu-Ray along with TerrorVision a couple of years ago.

By the way, the movie-within-a-movie is entitled Zombie Blood Nightmare...which is the name of the first track on thrash metal band Gama Bomb's Citizen Brain album. Awesome!

Damn dude not sure, I'll watch 6 and see if it comes back to me. I had a Saint Bernard piss on me one, I was playing "man vs wild" with my cousin on my property which was roughly 4 acres and wooded, so one of the neighbors used to walk him there so both my cousin and I were full garb camoed out and thought it would be fun to hide from them. I wrapped around the base of the tree and out of the 300 trees there he picked the one I was hiding at, also speaking of trees my cousin was repelling down one and the rope gave so I busted out laughing and he shot me in the ass with a pea shooter.

[noiseredux]
