    Default Dawn of the Dead - the original Romero version

    I just realized that that's a perfect example of Gamma movie.

    Not only the themes, the characters make up the Gamma quadra:

    Stephen, the pilot - LIE (not a particularly bright one though)
    Francine, the reporter - ESI
    Peter, one of the SWAT guys - SEE
    Roger, the other one, bitten by a zombie early on - ILI, but that's the worst fit of all.

    So, you want a good example of Gamma movie, themes, and characters, I suggest the original Dawn of the Dead.

    And "Shaun of the Dead" is the Alpha version poking fun of the original movie. How aptly.

    i haven't seen this movie in a long time but i do remember the scene where the black character had to shoot a child zombie and it was really dramatic and took him 5 minutes to do it--what with all the face closeups. i laughed for 5 minutes straight.

    romero seems like an intp

    Sounds like the best fit.
    LII
    that is what i was getting at. if there is an inescapable appropriation that is required in the act of understanding, this brings into question the validity of socionics in describing what is real, and hence stubborn contradictions that continue to plague me.
