Okay, I haven't even THOUGHT of "Hilarious House of Frightenstein" since I was like ten, so we're even, a memory for a memory. I didn't know Vinnie the P did the VO, either.

I don't remember the actual tiki bar in "Day of the Dead" but I do remember there was lotsa drinking. If you check out the archives of http://www.retroplanet.net for the previous issue, you''ll find my piece on Cocktail Cinema or Martini Movies or whatever it's called and my #1 drinking movie of all time is THE KILLER SHREWS! There is more hard drinking in that flick that in any other movie I've ever seen - but hell, if you were surrounded by rabid dogs wearing fake fangs and shag rugs, wouldn't you get smashed, too?

I always thought of zombies as being kinda tiki, since so many exotica albums have "Voodoo" in the title (or are just called "Voodoo" - Robert Drasnin, Richard Heyman, I'm sure there're lots more). As I explained somewhere in this vast , dark chat room, in the newcomers forum, wherever that is, I chose my moniker here, "AquaZombie" off the top off my head but I think it's inspired by the infamous underwater zombie/shark scene in Fulchi's ZOMBIE, which is also set on a tropical isle, a la I WALKED WITH A ZOMBIE, but of course this is MUCH sicker and gorier. I'm showing "Zombie" Oct 9 in my cult movie show Thrillville, by the way (www.thrillville.net) - many of you probably know me as "Will the Thrill" but that's such an overused user's name I thought I'd go something a bit more off the wall.

Oh, I love you too, babe.
