Zombie Con 2008 - The Debriefing

Postby kyle » Tue Jun 17, 2008 11:16 pm

Well, one more very successful year. Nature tried to kick our as but we beat it down!

Here are the classics played this year in case anyone wants to torture themselves again:
Wednesday - Diary of the Dead, Doomsday, Shaun of the Dead
Thursday - Zombie Strippers, Fido
Friday - Special Dead, Siege of the Dead, Rec
Saturday - What To Do In A Zombie Attack, Night of the Living Dead 3-D, Wild Zero

Some pics collected from the other threads around the forum:

-_- Excuse me while I continue to gouge me eyes out.

Actually, ZCON looks like it was a blast. Wish I could have made it down, maybe next year.

Thanks for the summary of photo galleries Kyle. Did Brash get home alright?

Brash had so much fun that he's still sleeping on my couch. Seriously.

Nice outfit, Bellers. First thing that popped into my head was "who brought the cool kid?"
No indecent pictures of me yet, yay!
NFA, great write up. Great pics everybody.

I'd like to mention that my mother is, in fact, a saint. A very caring person, she was cursed with the gift of good looks, and then came the internet.

Ditto. Had a blast, and it was great getting to meet everyone! (though I'm still trying to match up names + forum names + faces. It's tricky!)
