You'd be hard-pressed to find a zombie fan unfamiliar with George A. Romero's expansive "Night of the Living Dead" franchise, which is widely regarded to have set the stage for almost all current zombie media and redefined the horror genre. However, due to a copyright mishap that inundated the world with both official and unofficial spin-offs and sequels (via The Verge), it's pretty easy to get lost in this sea of undead flesh-eater films.

I don’t care if you’re out on the street, waving your flag and chanting your slogans. We won’t die silently the way you want us to… I don’t care that you sympathize with Hamas. I know you wouldn’t tolerate any of the things they did to us if they would’ve done it to you. I don’t care that you’re outraged by Israel’s response to the massacre more than the massacre itself. I don’t care that this doesn’t fit neatly into your carefully constructed narrative of ‘Israel as aggressor’ and ‘Palestinian as victim I know you would do everything to eliminate...

TALLAHASSEE — Florida lawmakers will return to the Capitol on Monday for a brief special session to bolster state sanctions on Iran, a move aimed at helping Gov. Ron DeSantis with his floundering presidential campaign, his critics say. Legislators also plan to tackle other issues, including more aid for Hurricane Idalia victims, extra money to harden homes against hurricanes and school voucher funding. Not on the agenda Florida has the highest property insurance rates in the country, Driskell noted. “They continue to go out of control with no immediate relief for homeowners,” Driskell said, “yet we doled out billions to...

CNN host Phil Mattingly admitted Friday that his jaw "literally dropped" after hearing a young black voter admit that he doesn't know if he will vote for President Joe Biden in 2024. CNN anchor John King recently traveled to Milwaukee where he gauged the pulse of the black community there. What he discovered, according to him, is a "giant problem" for Biden's re-election hopes. One Milwaukee voter, Davette Bake, told King that he "love[s] Joe" but graded Biden's presidency a four on a scale of 1 to 10. Another voter, Joanna Brookes, expressed concern that the Democratic Party takes black...

A top ally of President Vladimir Putin warned Poland on Thursday that the NATO member state was now considered a "dangerous enemy" by Russia and could end up losing its statehood if it continued on its current course. Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, now deputy chairman of Russia's Security Council, made the comments in an 8,000-word article on Russian-Polish relations, saying Moscow now had a "dangerous enemy" in Poland. "We will treat it (Poland) precisely as a historical enemy," Medvedev said. "If there is no hope for reconciliation with the enemy, Russia should have only one and a very tough...

It’s often said that God works in mysterious ways, and the righteous ultimately prevail. This sentiment might just have played out in the World Series’ final game, where the Texas Rangers claimed victory. This win marks their first World Series title in 52 years. But there’s an interesting twist to their triumph: the Rangers were the only team in the MLB to resist hosting a “Pride Night.” It looks like God rewarded them for it, too. ... God Rewards Only Team That Doesn't Have A Pride Night With World Series Win ... The Rangers took a lot of heat for...

A new Emerson College poll out on Friday shows Democratic Gov. Andy Beshear and Attorney General Daniel Cameron in a dead heat less than a week before the Kentucky gubernatorial election — both polling at 47%. The results are a shift for Beshear, who has had a significant lead in almost all polling leading up to the election. Earlier in October, he was polling at 49% in the same poll as Cameron sat at 33%, and 13% of respondents would rather vote for someone else.

The Sixth forum of the “Laudato Si’ Communities” was held in Verona, Italy, earlier this month. This is a series of meetings devoted to propagating Pope Francis’ views on what is called “the climate emergency.” This latest affair was called “Doubling the Commitment.” This was a reference to Francis’ new exhortation, Laudate Deum, in which he warns us that the end is near, both for “our suffering planet” and, by extension, for us. He struck the same note in his opening video message to the Verona meeting, warning that it’s “a very difficult time” and that “within 30 years the...

Hamas has always been committed to wiping out the nation of Israel, and now after the terror attacks of October 7th Israel is committed to wiping out Hamas. So what we are witnessing is truly a “death match” that will produce only one survivor. Hamas is desperately hoping that all of Israel’s enemies in the region will unite and try to destroy the nation of Israel once and for all. Meanwhile, Israel is attempting to slowly but surely strangle the terror group out of existence. In fact, it is being reported that the IDF has now “completed the encirclement of...

After a suspicious absence from the limelight following the start of war between Israel and Hamas terrorists on Oct. 7, Hezbollah’s Sec.-Gen. Hassan Nasrallah announced that he will be giving a major address to his supporters in Beirut, Lebanon on Friday at 3 p.m. local time. The speech is widely expected to reveal the direction the Iranian-backed terror organization Hezbollah intends to take in the conflict with Israel. Israel and the U.S. have so far made major efforts to keep Hezbollah on the sidelines of the war. U.S. President Joe Biden sent a strong message to that effect with his...

Only a select group of first aid workers, IDF military, government officials and journalists–as well as US President Joe Biden and other leaders of Western countries–know the full extent of the horrors. Biden’s unprecedented response to what happened in Israel on October 7,...

NOTES: (paraphrasing): Israel aid: I'm all for what the Speaker is doing. We must pay for any aid. This is the conservative position. It ought to be paid for by taking it away from something that is harmful to our economy like more IRS agents so I think it's a Win-Win. I think McConnell-Biden-Schumer will lose on this issue. There's about $44 billion in IRS money.. I'm happy to rescind all of this if necessary On the border crisis: Migrants need to remain in Mexico. [in camps] "We must change the law...
