Dialogue
Geoff Montgomery: It's worse than horrible because a zombie has no will of his own. You see them sometimes walking around blindly with dead eyes, following orders, not knowing what they do, not caring.
Larry Lawrence: You mean like Democrats?
Francisco Mederes: He wasn't playing. That was the real ghost!
Larry Lawrence': Now we have something to worry about on our honeymoon.
Mary Carter: Our what?
Larry Lawrence: Our honeymoon. Didn't I tell ya?
Mary Carter: No, but I'd like to hear about it.
Larry Lawrence: You would?
