Round 7

[MK Shrimper]

Round 7 is possibly the most diverse one yet! Horror master George Romero (Clinton Baptiste) v comedy king Gerald Thomas (Uxbridge Shrimper).

Carry on watch out for those brain eating zombies matron!

 

[Napster]

Tricky. I want to see arguments.

Tricky. I want to see arguments.

Me too in case of a draw !!!!

 

[Mr Gilbo]

Not one that I actually care for as I haven't heard of either of them.

You must've heard of Gerald Thomas, he used to write books about animals :tumbleweed:

 

[Clinton Baptiste]

George A Romero, the daddy of zombie films, arguably one of the most imitated directors of all time.
Admittedly only 2 of his films could be considered all time classics- Night of the Living Dead and Dawn of the Dead but they are superb, genre-defining and genuinely scary.

 

[Napster]

OK, Night of the Dead is brilliant. And Thomas wasn't exactly an innovator. So, vote for Romero.

 

[Uncle Leo]

Gerald Thomas directed Carry On Abroad.

With the great line:

The name's Vic Flange. This is the wife. Don't laugh.

And Carry On Up The Khyber

Naff jokes aside, the above scene in Khyber is top notch. The British Embassy is being bombed to buggery by the Burpas but, in a display of true British stiff upper lip, Ambassador Sidney Bluff-Gore and his guests continue eating their meal as if nothing is happening, even as the room falls down around them.

 

[Jedi Shrimper]

Abstain.

Not a Carry On fan, and Horror just isn't my cup of tea.

 

[Uncle Leo]

Oh come on you lot, stop mucking about...
