George A. Romero's Lost Debut Film - The Amusement Park

Considered lost for over 40 years, George A. Romero's debut film, The Amusement Park, has been rediscovered and restored.

According to Bloody Disgusting website, The Amusement Park was originally commissioned by the Lutheran Society to highlight elder abuse, but was later considered so shocking it was never released. The premise is described as : 'The Amusement Park stars Lincoln Maazel as an elderly man who finds himself disoriented and increasingly isolated as the pains, tragedies, and humiliations of aging in America are manifested through roller coasters and chaotic crowds.'

The 4K print has reportedly been purchased by Yellow Veil Productions and will be released on all platforms later this year.

Consume And Die

Are you bored and quite literally dying to shop again?

The UK Prime Minister, that most trusted of public servants, wants you to shore up the ailing economy by encouraging you to risk your life visiting the high street for cheap paper thin clothes at Primark, that you wouldn't be seen dead wearing in a month. Well, you might be, just give it a few weeks. That new cough is never going away.

The Pandemic is far from over. Don't believe me?

The UK already has the highest death rate in Europe with over 40,000 dead and no means of identifying how prevalent Covid-19 infections actually are in our society - without an adequate track and trace system. So when you're next advised to safely reduce your physical distancing to 1 metre, or perhaps even 1.4 metres, against all scientific evidence to the contrary, remember this : A scientific study has already found that reducing physical distance to 1 metre DOUBLES your chances of infection. In other words, for every metre apart, transmission is halved.

Reducing Physical Distancing Doubles Your Chances Of Infection :

Man, this government is killing it. And everyone you know.
