Friday Night at the Meaningful Movies: “HOMECOMING” aka "ZOMBIES ATTACK GEORGE BUSH”
Film: “HOMECOMING” (AKA “ZOMBIES ATTACK GEORGE BUSH”) (60 min, Joe Dante, 2005)
Just when things looked like they couldn't get any worse for President Bush, here come the zombies to vote him out of office. One part satire of soulless Beltway insiders and Bush’s War On Terrorism, one part gut-crunching horror flick, ZOMBIES kicks off when the flag-draped coffins of soldiers killed in Iraq burst open and the reanimated corpses of dead veterans hit the streets, searching for polling places where they can pull the lever for "anyone who will end this evil war."
From a bullying pundit cloned from Ann Coulter's DNA to a Jerry Falwell doppelganger, this flick, as ZNet states: "praises the troops in Iraq while offering up the politicians and pundits who sent them there as finger food for the undead."
Filmmaker Joe Dante is a former protégé of Roger Corman, the king of B horror films. He also worked with Steven Spielberg on “Gremlins”, “Twilight Zone-The Movie,” and others; and directed “The Howling”. He also directed films like the cult classic, “Piranha.” “Homecoming” is part of the anthology series "Masters of Horror" produced in 2005 and features films by renowned horror film directors.
Note: May not be appropriate for young children due to language and content. …but of course, it’s Halloween.
(Event is FREE and open to the public! ..but Donations are kindly accepted). More info: www.meaningfulmovies.org
