Warm Bodies
Details:
February 9, 2013 2:00pm (Time subject to change, check Facebook)
Hey everybody!
Let's
get together for a Horror Club pre-Valentine's day movie. We will meet
in the theater lobby approximately 45 minutes before the movie start
time. I will adjust the time once the movie schedule is posted.
Synopsis:
A
funny new twist on a classic love story, WARM BODIES is a poignant tale
about the power of human connection. After a zombie epidemic, R (a
highly unusual zombie) encounters Julie (a human survivor), and rescues
her from a zombie attack. Julie sees that R is different from the other
zombies, and as the two form a special relationship in their struggle
for survival, R becomes increasingly more human - setting off an
exciting, romantic, and often comical chain of events that begins to
transform the other zombies and maybe even the whole lifeless world. © Summit
