[REC]3 Says Zombies Not Welcome at Weddings

Spain’s recent revival of cinematic Anti-Zombie prejudice exposes a lengthier history of Zombie-bashing; surely we’re not the only ones who recall ‘Tombs of the Blind Dead’? Still, as odious as the ‘mock the handicapped Zombies’ Blind Dead films were, they lacked the slick, HD-ready production values* of [REC] and its sequel. Truly, and tragically, fear of the Differently Animated has come into its own in the post-modern era on the Iberian peninsula.

Now we are presented with the third entry in the [REC] series, the oddly (for a sequel of a sequel) titled [REC]3: Genesis:

For [REC] 3: Genesis the action moves to a wedding celebration, but judging by the just-released trailer it’s going to be just as good as the first two. Check it out:

Yes, for some reason the mere appearance of some Zombie relatives at a wedding is cause for a full panic, followed by subsequent dismemberment with a chainsaw, stick blender, what have you. Ugly, ugly prejudice on what’s supposed to be such a happy day.

Are all of the less ‘desirable’ relatives shunned in this fashion? Would it help if the Zombies brought expensive wedding presents? I suppose that rarely hurts. Did the bride and groom even tell the Zombies where they registered?

It seems clear that the Zombies are the real victims here. As usual.

According to IMDB [REC]3 comes out in March in Spain, so I guess the world will get to see them spin this vicious bigotry then. And spin they surely will.

*or, in later Blind Dead films, production values at all, or so say the film wags
