Zombies: The Salad Days
He died as he lived. Annoying the crap out of people who eventually shot him in the head.
(Dawn of the Dead, 1978)
Zombies had humble beginnings. In the early, pioneering George Romero films, they were slow moving, slow witted,
and used as Romero's allusions to real life political issues.
Which political issues they are, we often can't tell in the slightest,
but here's a minority human killing white zombie children who are trying to eat him in Dawn of the Dead.
We think that the moral of the movie is that minorities should murder white children in self-defense.

Who Becomes a Zombie:
|
Everyone.
The military creates a super secret military satellite (that's all over the news, eh)
that emits radiation that brings back the dead and makes them homicidal
against rednecks. The military is unwilling to do anything to stop this. We empathize.

How to Survive:
|
These are your stereotypical zombies, slow and mindless. In order to survive them,
Dawn of the Dead goes to great lengths to teach us
never, ever to get your blood pressure taken at one of those mall booths while getting attacked by zombies.

Mexicans in the film are denoted by their enormous colorful sombreros and doing crap like this. Dawn of the Dead.
