Does anyone play out the Beekman's diner story in their head VIVIDLY ?


I do! I wish it were really filmed !!!!!!!!!!!

Yes. Just last night while I was watching for my yearly Halloween viewing. I picture all those things just staring silently at Ben as he plows through them.....

The only redeeming part of the NOTLD release with "extra scenes" was a feeding scene in a car with zombies from the diner.

There was supposed to be an animated Living dead movie that showed, at least in part, what happened to the NotLD characters before they got to the farm house; I would assume Beekman's diner would be part of that. If the movie was based on a comic I read (and I think it was) then it should be.

There was a special showing of NotLD on some cable channel a few years back; they did a 'picture in picture' play by play of the Beekman's diner attack during Ben's monologue about it, using matchbox cars and army men.

No kidding, then there must be a backstory to the Coopers where we see poor Karen bitten by one of those things.....any info on that? They were probably out for the day to have a nice lunch and get Karen a new pair of shoes ....so sad...good lord I'm talking about them like they are real people.

I do believe they show it in, "The Night Of The Living Dead" graphic novel. ;)


I honor the dead with Easter-eggs! Please view & comment on my new living dead tribute, ”The Walker”! www.youtube.com/watch?v=4EIsv6QmEHk
We tried to include Easter-egg's like, the space-probe and cement spade from the first NotLD film… Michonne's Katana can be seen hanging on the kitchen wall... As well as COREL'S pudding on the kitchen counter! We even threw in a couple of vintage Mustangs!
