big daddy

 

AKA:

Eugene Clark

WAS A BASTARD IN: 

Land of the Dead (2005)

SO, WHO THE HELL IS HE?

In life he was a simple petrol pump
attendant working for an honest wage
in an average garage in an average
suburban town. In death he became...
King of the Zombies!!

Well, sort of anyway. Big Daddy represents the future for zombie kind, he is able to think past his simple basic instincts and this is what makes him worthy of note. He is not exactly Stephen Hawking but by undead standards he's about as smart as it is possible for a re-animated decaying corpse to get.

THAT'S NOT A KNIFE:

Big Dady's main weapon is his brain, not in a literal way of course, that would just be weird but rather his capacity for thought enables him to not only use weapons and tools himself but also teach other zombies how to use meat cleavers, guns and anything that they can get their skanky rotting hands on really.

He is also a bit of a pro with the good old fashioned molatov cocktail as Dennis Hopper will surely attest to.

SO, WHAT'S THE DAMAGE?

Big Daddy's assault on the human city wipes out pretty much everyone there so he scores pretty big on that account. Highlights of the zombie raid include an unfortunate young woman's navel ring being bitten out and an arm being split in half...lengthways. Ouch.

IT'S A MILLION TO ONE CHANCE BUT IT JUST MIGHT WORK...

Being a zombie means that the usual method of sever the head or destroy the brain applies here which comes in useful for him as he gets himself shot a fair bit over the course of his little crusade of the dead.

Of course being blown to pieces by a missile would do the trick too but in a decision of mind blowing stupidity our hero Riley decides to let them live as they are only "looking for a place to go". Yeah and it doesn't matter that they are just going to find another place to go where there are lots more living people to be eaten alive. Idiot.

WORDS OF WISDOM:

"UUrrgghh"
