Well, I'm scanning my drawing to my computer so I can put it with my collection on Myspace. I could post the copy here too if you'd like.

WINNERS:ObliviongoonNatalieThe Never DeadMy favorite horror movie is Dawn of the Dead(1978) because of many reasons. One being the cast It's the strongest cast of any Romero "Dead" film. Everyone does an amazing job portraying their characters. They're likeable & you're rooting for them the entire time, even Flyboy despite his flaws. You really grow to love him. Also because of the comic book style make-up effects & blood. The effects are cheesy yet effective. Well executed & still marvelous to this very day. The soundtrack/score is another reason why it's my favorite movie. It's memorable & still holds up today. The combination of Goblin tracks plus stock music is a winning one. Also, the social commentary about consumerism. Controlling the mall, living or dead, is top priority. It's important to the main cast(first for survival then for material possessions), the zombies(who loved the place when they were alive & seemed to be attached to it even in death), & the bikers(who wanted to loot the place & take whatever the wanted). Of course that's open to many different opinions. That's just my brief opinion about the matter. It's a 30 year old movie that still excites me every time I watch it. Dawn of the Dead never gets old to me & never feels dated despite the wardrobe & hairstyles of some of the characters in the film. It is George Romero's masterpiece & a horror classic. A must-watch for any fan of the horror genre or zombie movie sub-genre. The Godfather of films about the living dead.--------------------------------------------------------------------------- All winners were chosen at random by someone other than myself (names out of a hat). Congratulations to ALL winners, and a very warm thank you to everyone who bothered to enter. Posters will be shipped out as soon as each winner sends me their mailing address, and I go out and buy shipping materials. Expect the posters soon! ;D

Thanks! Here is a better quality shot. I scanned this instead of using my camera to take a picture. And here it is compared to the shot I looked off of:

Hey guys, sorry I haven't yet mailed out the posters. I've been EXTREMELY busy with a lot of stuff, and I simply haven't gotten around to it yet.
Deepest apologies, friends. I will ship those out as soon as I can.
