You know, I actually like my job quite a bit and I have a great boss. But there are those days where I come in and just stare at the computer screen for an hour (or longer) and get almost nothing done. Today was one of those days. I've had a bad cold the last few days and I actually stayed home from work Monday. My nose was running like a water faucet all day long, and when I tried to go to sleep Monday night, it was so distracting that I couldn't. So I made a late night Wal-Mart run out of desperation and bought some Zyrtec. I've been a Claritin user for years but at this point I think I'm immune to it because it simply hasn't worked very well the last few colds I've had. Anyway, the Zyrtec worked but it also helped make me drowsy today. I felt like total crap when I got to work this morning. It got better throughout the day but I just couldn't wait until 5 PM rolled around to get the hell out of there. It was just one of those days. Office Space does a good job portraying this kind of stuff.
It's eerie how accurate Office Space is...

Went to see that in the cinema... cool movie, though unfairly forgotten because of that "Dawn Of The Dead" remake.
In comparison to Romero's other "Dead" films, Land is the weakest link. Bit too Hollywood, too commercial for my tastes with Romero, and it also fails to create an atmosphere, something that Night, Dawn, Day & Diary accomplish.
But Land in comparison to ALL the other zombie films out there in the mid-2000's, and now, it's a masterpiece.
I was just a bit disappointed, because I had read the script over and over for a couple years ("Dead Reckoning"), and it sounded like it was going to be Romero's true epic, what he wasn't able to do with Day because of a lack of budget.
Unfortunately all I got seemed to a true Romero vision, with Universal hawking a loogey on it, and shining it up their way.

Critters
Timeless classic... 
You should have added those movies to your horror series polls.
