There are no sure things in Hollywood, but one genre of horror movie that seems to always just draw people to it is the zombie movie. I think part of what makes zombie movies terrifying, even the older ones with slow zombies, is the taboo. They're not human, but they're close enough to bring up the cannibalism taboo.

There's something great about zombie movies, which with George Romero's influence have also become renowned for having hidden political and social commentary.

Sinclair Lewis was well known for a wide array of fantastic novles that not only affected, but even changed, American society. "Mantrap" is barely remembered, as it was not one of Lewis's major works, but it is a pleasant read and one of his early novels.

Many people want to know what the truth about negative calorie foods, and the diet plan surrounding it, but this is a hard question to answer because that depends on what you want to know.

The movie "30 Days of Night" showed vampires in a very unusual light, one that is certainly uncommon at least among movies of vampires, which are often celebrated for being sensual, as well as terrifying. Vampires in a pack formation is very unusual for a vampire movie, especially modern ones. As far as having an actual "pack" of vampires, there are only two other recent movies that give a good comparison to "30 Days," which are "John Carpenter's Vampires" and "From Dusk Till Dawn.

There are a lot of questions about snake proof boots, also often referred to more simply as snake boots. Snake boots are quality boots that are designed with the specific purpose of protecting not only your feet, but also your lower legs from snake bites.

The term "fly fishing" usually conjures images of gentle rivers or running mountain creeks and streams as the angler waits that first strike from the trout. Others see scenes from a movie like "A River Runs Through It," but one of the last things most people think about when they hear fly fishing is the ocean.
