Heard on the radio this morning...

Turns out that , at the end of WWII, us Brits assassinated Himler before the Yanks could interrogate him. History up to this point has it that he committed suicide before being turned over to the Yanks for interrogation and the Nuremburg trials.

 

Question has to be – why? There is a theory it’s because the British government were negotiating with him and they didn’t want the US to find out, because it would have been embarrassing. Other historians point out that doesn't stack up, as everyone was negotiating with everyone else during the war anyway, and this would be no more or less embarrassing than any of the other negotiations.

 

My theory? We got the secrets of making zombies out of him and then got rid of him. One day I’ll post the précis for my film idea here – Nazis vs Zombies. At last! My two favourite trashy cinema forces of evil, slugging it out.

Gravatar Oh that would make good cinema... Zombies vs Nazis. Or maybe us Yankies vs the Zombie Nazis (from Mars?)

Gravatar Hey thanks Chris, for being the first person to ever reply to my blog. I guess people do read these things.

Maybe I should clarify the heavy dose of sarcasm and cynicism that this thing is going to have in it? There will be lots.

I have an odd theory though that a lot of good-yet-trashy films end up with Nazis as baddies (Indiana Jones) or Zombies (pretty much any zombie flick). I allways like the idea of baddy versus baddy films, allthough they seem to turn out crap in the end. 5/25/2005 5:26 PM | Tim
