A Zombie Film for Horror Art Fans: Exit Humanity
Being on the road so often for conventions is amazing, but it usually means missing great
movies that people get to tell me was good. I was able to catch a viewing of Exit Humanity
and loved it, so I'd like to spread the word about it. There are a few familiar faces in the
cast, like Bill Moseley, Dee Wallace, and Brian Cox. It didn't have a big budget, but for a
Civil War zombie film, they really outdid themselves. The zombie makeup was great, and
the thing that REALLY stood out for me was the inclusion of animation! How often can
that not end up corny? Everyone behind this film clearly had a passion for it, so their talent
and drive really did it justice. I love that they did such a great job meshing live action with
animation, making it a standout in recent zombie films. It's nice to be inspired by a zombie
film in an age where they are more than a dime a dozen.

Another zombie film that recently impressed me was The Dead. It has that bleak, hopeless
and pretty much apocalyptic feel as a classic Fulci flick.
Check out the trailer!
But back to Exit Humanity! I found out a little more about the artist behind the animation,
Snezhan Bodurov, and wanted to share this neat video of animated sequences he did for
the film. These are illustrations of stories told in Edward's journal.

"All I know is, this Lo Pan character comes out of thin air in the middle of a goddamn alley while his buddies are flying around on wires cutting everybody to shreds, and he just stands there waiting for me to drive my truck straight through him with light coming out of his mouth!"
Been painting a lot of Peter Cushing lately. Not likely gonna stop ether. Enjoy!
