Zombies This is acting????

Zombies!

"I hate zombie movies" said Grrr and Andy Ant nodded his antennae in agreement.
"Where is the art..where is the  craft in a zombie flick?"
"Night of the Living Dead" was a scary movie." said Bob.
"OK, that was a good horror flick" said Andy  and Grrr nodded in agreement.
"But this whole wave of zombie movies...junk..just junk" said  Andy Ant.
"True, get a mob of extras, pour some red dye on them, dress, I won't use the word "costume"  dress them in dirty rags, no lines, so you don't have to pay  them more than scale and   two or three film school dropouts running around screaming...this is art?  This is scary?" Asked Grrr.
"The Creature would have a fit...Vlad has gone back to  the medical field and Bruce has retired to his cruise gig."
"Hold on, Grrr ..The Creature..The Creature from the Black Lagoon...You guys know the Creature???" asked Bob.
"Yep," replied Andy, " In the monster community all the old hands know each other. The Creature got so mad when they started this wave of Zombie movies, he headed back to the Amazon. I felt the same way  and went home to the nest.  I mean Zombies..they make "Friday the 13th"  look like "Henry V". 
The whole monster movie field has gone to the dogs....worse than those beach party monsters in the 1960's"  Grumbled Grrr.
"Most zombies, stumble along at what 1/2 a mile an hour? How can something that slow catch anyone?" said Grrr.
"Dont you think that they say something about the times we live in ?" Bob asked.
"Yep, that the folks making films now..." said Andy  would not know a good horror movie if it bit them on the tail!" Agreed Grrr.
