C.H.U.D. I remember this movie. Not A high water mark in horror films.

It's a biker. I actually know the guy. He's cool. He only eats people he finds that are already dead. He says killing 'em first wouldn't be right. I reminded him that zombies dont actually kill their prey first, the fellow sort of dies at some point along the process of being eaten. He said that was the sort of legalistic crap that sent him underground in the first place. that was the end of that particular conversation. I didnt want to know exactly what he was talking about. It might end the friendship. or strengthen it. and i didnt want THAT. for reasons i wont go into right now

Maybe you should write a story about him.

I don't think they have anything to fear if it's a "ghost" and not a "zombie." As a friend of mine once observed, "Dead's dead. They're not going to hurt you. The living and breathing -- that's who you should worry about." And ten points credit for whoever remembers what "C.H.U.D." stood for.

Isn't it something like Carnivorous Humanoid Underground Dwellers? We should be asking Parnell Hall, but he doesn't read the blog.
