“In films murders are always very clean. I show how difficult it is and what a messy thing it is to kill a man.” --- Alfred Hitchcock ::::::::::: MY CRITERIA FOR DISCUSSION ENCOMPASSES THE HORROR GENRE AND BEYOND, SO I USE THE TERM "NIGHTMARE MOVIES".

Make-up call 10:00am
According to Bizarre magazine Zombie Fest is a Live Action Role Play (or LARP) event. Attendees invent their own cannibalistic corpse character and play dead with each other for five blood-spattered, brain-splattered hours, spontaneously spinning plotlines around a general theme devised by organiser Ed Thurlow, know affectionately among locals as "King of the Zombies".

Read to play!


This year, the third annual gathering, the story was set in 1978 (very Romero), in the fictional British village of Willard Valley (apparently loosely based on inbred hamlet Royston Vasey from The League Of Gentlemen) and took place on Friday the 3rd of October. All manner of decomposing wallflowers, decaying disco-heads, flesh-rippin’ wide boys, and gut-munchin’ messengers of God took to the greens and fell among the trees and bushes as they moaned and groaned and defended themselves against a plague of pantomime putrescence.

Standing-by ... killing time
Sounds like my kind of deviant and twisted alfresco bash; a picnic for the wicked. There’s even a pub nearby for when the taste of fake blood gets a little too rich and one craves a refreshing ale to cleanse the palette!

Is that a zombie bunny I can see?!
I don’t live in England, but if some enthusiastic event organiser down under with a deviant bent that leans towards all that is putrid, undead and hungry for flesh is keen to put together an Australian version of Zombie Fest … I’m there with entrails dragging!
