Hey, Sunday Night Zombie Movie Club, do we have a zombie movie for tonight? I think we should - it would be especially fitting for Easter Sunday. 😃 ---

We could do the movie that’s currently on TCM, _The Greatest Story Ever Told_. 😃 Dang, I loves me some historical epics, but that one moves so slowly and glumly that I only watch it to see who was playing whom. Seriously, John Wayne as a Roman centurion? I’ll watch whatever the rest of you want. I really did like seeing _Night Of The Comet_ again, after so long. ---

If you’re really looking for a zombie film (and this isn’t SD code for something else), Netflix has “Cockneys vs Zombies.” Saw it a few months ago, it’s a real hoot. Honor (“Miss Moneypenny”) Blackman is in the cast . IMdB gives it 5.9; I’d up that to 7.0-7.3. I’ve watched a lotta shitty zombie films in the last 8 months, this one was fun. Enjoy! ---

I’ve never seen this one before. Sounds good to me. I’ll give it a shot if we go with this one. ---

If not for this week, maybe later, someone was recommending to me a zombie movie called “Fido” > **[Fido (2006) - IMDb](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0457572/?ref_=nv_sr_1)** > > Fido: Directed by Andrew Currie.

They also mentioned a Cuban film called “Juan of the Dead” > **[Juan of the Dead (2011) - IMDb](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1838571/?ref_=nv_sr_1)** > > Juan of the Dead: Directed by Alejandro Brugués.

Last night the SyFy channel aired a movie called _Bigfoot_. Greg Brady, Danny Partridge, Johnny Fever and Alice Cooper were in it. I watched until Alice made his cameo. It was bad. ---

Well, we went out for Easter dinner, so we didn’t get any movies watched. I’ll see if we have “Cockneys vs. Zombies” on Canadian Netflix tomorrow and watch it if we do. 🙂
