Your statement about obscuring one's likeness reminds me of stories a friend of mine used to tell me about Intelligence/Counter Intelligence.
He always said that in order for them (U.S. Army) to make a proper ID on someone they had a photograph of, they needed a good shot of the person's face including their nose. If their nose was in anyway obscured, the photograph was thrown out.
He said that a lot of times when he was in public, he would sit with his face in his hand one of his fingers resting on his nose.
Just wondering if this would have any affect on the face recognition programs...
Plus the Octal world that they live in (only 4 fingers).

I do not have an antennae or cable or anything, so never saw any trailers for the movie, just heard about it by word of mouth and then went, so knew nothing about it.

There was one scene in this movie that was a typical kind of horror scene, where you know where you know what is about to happen. My roommate and i were sitting there in a row by ourselves in this dark cold theatre and we had a short dialogue that went like this:
Him: Oh god, it's going to happen. Me: What? Him: She's going to open her eyes. Me: What? Him: Look, it's going to happen, oh god oh god. (At this point he was more or less drooling on himself with fright)
3 seconds later, what he was drooling in fear about, which we both knew was going to happen, happened, and we and everyone else in the theatre jumped.
The acting was not overly great or in anyway different from what I was expecting, but we made sure we checked our brains at the door. Doing that allowed us to have a great time and really enjoy a strong Zombie flick.
