Each month we explore pop culture (we kind of have to, it's in our title), 80's and 90's nostalgia, movie and TV trends, old school toys & games, tropes, urban myths, and more. Commentary, criticisms, and opinions abound. Stick around, you might just be entertained.

The Top Five Zomedies of All Time

Horror and comedy are hard to pull off (more on that in a future post) but these movies managed to "do it like the bomb-digitty."

1) Fido - a boy and his zombie, implied zombie romance, and direct references to Lassie make this movie so perfect.

2) Dead Alive - the granddaddy of all zomedies.  There is too much stuff to list here...but watch out for the karate priest who "kicks ass for the lord."

3) Night of the Creeps - the moment I saw pink aliens with no butt-cracks, I was hooked.

4) Dead Snow - nazi zombies, chainsaws, and numerous references to classic zombie films make this a must-see.

5) Shaun of the Dead - you knew it was coming.  The surprise was that it wasn't # 1.

* Feel free to use "Do it like the bomb-diggity" in your day-to-day life.  I'm trying to make that a thing.
