South Park creators face severe threats from Muslim Extremists

As a die hard South Park fan, I was overjoyed to see the new 200th and 201st episodes of the series. These episodes rotate around Muhammad, the prophet of the Muslim faith, and that fact that he is immune to all comedic remarks (due to violent response from extremists). As Trey Parker and Matt Stone have said on countless occasions:

"It's all, or nothing."

This simple quote clearly depicts the vision the creators have of their animated show. If its not alright to laugh about something, then its not okay to laugh about anything. Lest we forget the parting of the character "Chef" (played by Isaac Hayes) form the show due to the mocking of Scientology in the episode "Trapped in the Closet". Hayes threatened to leave the show if they aired the episode, seeing as he is a devout Scientologist), but due to Parker and Stone's strong ideals, the show aired and Hayes left.

Muhammad has been portrayed in South Park before, in the episode entitled the "The Super Best Friends", and it seemed fine with everyone in general. It has only recently arose controversy seeing as Danish filmographer Theo Van Gogh.

South Park creators Parker and Stone have both received death threats from Muslim extremist groups, however they successfully mock Muhammad in their latest episode.

Out.

Best Zombie Movie List

madgad-zombie-tux-1963Who doesn't love zombie movies? Hollywood budget to B-movies, zombie flicks rock, and you know it. So my roommates and I have decided to dedicate one night to these beautiful pieces of art, and in light of this dedication I decided to put together the ultimate zombie movie list. I currently have 450GB of movies on my computer, about 10 of which are zombie flicks. So, by using my existing collection and some others I've seen but I don't have, I give you the list:

SZ: Slow Zombies
FZ: Fast Zombies
M: Medium Gore
H: Heavy Gore
CM: Comedy
HY: Hollywood
B: B-Movie (Low Budget)
A: Animation/Cartoon

(always start with the oldies, you'll see how zombie movies change over time)
- Night of the Living Dead (1968) [SZ,M]
- Dawn of the Dead (1978) [SZ,M]
- The Evil Dead [H,B]
- The Evil Dead 2 [H,B,C]
- Dead Alive [H,B]
- 28 Days Later [FZ,H]
- 28 Weeks Later [FZ,H,HY]
- Dawn of the Dead [FZ,H,HY]
- Day of the Dead [FZ,H,HY]
- Shaun of the Dead [FZ,H,HY,CM]
- Resident Evil Extinction [FZ,H,HY]
- Resident Evil Degeneration [A]
- Zombieland [FZ,M,CM,HY]

I thought I'd finish off with a bit of comedy (even though I didn't think Zombieland had enough gore, but that's just me).

Hope you enjoy it.
