Baphomet? Isn't that the name of a demon? Sorry ... I'm severely falling behind in my "Satanic Bible" school teachings.

Still don't like 'em, but thanks for the clarification, Ginsu Victim. I just know the original black & white Night of the Living Dead scared the crap out of me and I've turned off every zombie film I've come across since.

Actually, most Satanists (LaVeyan anyhow) don't usually refer to their symbol as a Penticle/Pentagram at all, they call it a Baphomet.
Serrena:
Brain-munching isn't a zombie trait.
That's only in Return of the Living Dead, which is a joke (John Russo is an assclown).
True Romero zombies (and those other films that have followed his rules) don't go, "Braaaaaaains". They just eat whatever they happen to rip out / off.

Mmm, the sound of people grinding. :p
Haha, sorry, I just couldn't pass up the opportunity.
Anyways... I love the lighting in this picture. Especially on the ceiling of the Gondola ride thingy. Beautiful.

Oh. My. Heck.
I love this. The lighting, and the subject. This would be my favourite area of this ride for sure!
wrote:
Wow, that is in really good condition. I'd love to just walk in through the ride and check out what it all looked like!
*whine, whimper*

"why is it when people see a pentagram they automatically think it's the sighn of something satanic?"

Actually, it wasn't the penticle that made me think of this being "Satanic." It was the altar with the demon head, the robed 'priests' and the obvious female sacrafice. The penticle was kind of secondary, there.

I don't think the person who painted the mural was really all that up on his Occult Mythology and Symbolism. Eh, either way, it's not something I'd expect to see on a "kid's" ride. Which is why I come here, right? To see that which I don't expect to see.

Hell, Jude, I'm not a kid and it'd be spooky for me now. Something about zombies just .... ugh. Don't like 'em; nope, nope, nope. I will watch a horror film about any creature BUT zombies and not get a chill. Throw in a couple of brain-munchers though? I'm freaked and it's doomed to be nightmares all night.

Yeah, I think the cops prefer the rear wheel drive Crown Vics, since the Impala's went to front wheel drive. Down here,in Doraville, they still have a few of the Impala SS rear wheel drive cars left, they may be drug seizure cars. They're pretty stealthy looking parked on the side of the expressways.

They're using a lot of Chevy Impalas in NYC nowadays. A copped out Mercury Marauder would be pretty sweet to have when doing this sort of thing though!

I like how the sign says "No hunting and no fishing" before "No trespassing". =-)
