The Returned

Ok so it's a zombie film on Netflix that anyone with Netflix really should watch. No its not all blood and gore and violence but more of a thinking man's movie. In fact it seems to be a thinly veiled statement that I think many on here will relate to.

For those that do watch it keep an eye out for the speech the female lead gives about half way through the movie. And also keep an eye out for the gas station scene where the lead male character drops his wallet.

I won't give anything away ;)

I found 2 of them on netflix. One says its a zombie movie but the other one says dead people return to their homes (I guess that would make them zombies). One is from 2012 and the other from 2013. Which one is it?

I'm not alik, but I watched it Saturday night. I saw the connections to our plight, and really enjoyed it.

Barry Scheck's and Peter Neufeld's Innocence project freed two guys I knew in prison. One was a tutor at the same time I was and the other worked as a cleaner on the unit. The DNA did not match and they were exonerated.

One received 3,400 years from an Oklahoma jury for a sexual assault on a child and the other received a life sentence for murder. Both were exonerated through the Innocence Project.

It is a wonderful project.

Pardon me, it was 3,200 years.

This was in Oklahoma in the 1990's when they were giving out lots of time on sex charges. The problem was that many were not guilty.

Here is a link to his story which you might find interesting.

Read his story. It is just five or six paragraphs, but it is an interesting study in how this witch hunt began and was running amok even back then.
