I was tempted to go with The Exorcist as the opening scenes at the dig are my favourite of the movie. - So atmospheric. However as the sequence is relatively short and the film isn't really about the unearthing i decided to leave it out in favour of films where this weeks subject features more prominently.

So, 10 films with zombies as a tribute to Mr. Romero?

• The Awakening (1980)
• Bringing Up Baby
• The Good, the Bad and the Ugly
• The Exorcist
• Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
• Jurassic Park
• The Mummy (1932)
• The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada

Close, but no cigar to these five:
Les aventures extraordinaires d'Adèle Blanc-Sec
Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark
The Mummy (1959)
Psycho – only removed because you don't see anything, notably Mother, being unearthed
The Texas Chain Saw Massacre – as above

The Awakening is a film i can't get excited by. I used to have it on vhs and still have the dvd but, i don't know, i find it dull.
