    Honestly, a zombie movie where the zombies are so stubborn in their belief that they’re actually still alive that they pretend to be dead when they get wounded in a way that would kill a normal human would be brilliant

    I had a haunted TV once. It didn't have any zombos to my knowledge but it turned on by itself in the middle of the night and I had to walk into the dark kitchen to try to turn it off. When it wouldn't turn off, I unplugged it (which worked thank f*ck), so I taped a little note on it "FREE HAUNTED TV. Warning: TV is haunted" and one of my neighbors wanted it. Haven't seen them in a while but glad it worked out for everyone!

It’s based on the lovecraft story “The Strange Case of Charles Dexter Ward”, and it’s goofy in a distinctly start of the 90s way, but there are some EXCELLENT wet puppets, and the ending is fantastic, a skeleton comes to life and fights a warlock in an insane asylum.

However, just an idea, not necessarily directed at anyone: I wish one of these horror movie review channels, yours or anyone's would concentrate more on movies that are available on free streaming, instead of the seemingly unobtainable suggestions for cult classics, or the latest on some giant paywalled corporate channel. I mean, again, this is a fun movie, and I like the way you cover it, and I'm not trying to tell anyone how to run their business, just wish there was a channel that tried to cover flicks that anyone could see.
