CALENDAR 15 See what’s happening this week

At what point should we start to get nervous that the zombies are clearly uniting? I mean, this week’s cover story by Kevin Opsahl is about the third annual Zombie Walk in downtown Logan. Meanwhile, in the calendar section, you’ll notice that there are two more zombie walks/runs/ chases coming up this Halloween season in Cache Valley — both on Saturday morning at the same time.

It would seem that great minds — which will surely soon be eaten by the living dead — think alike.

But you know, it really doesn’t seem that long ago that zombies were actually a rarity. At least I didn’t go to school with any ... as far as I know.

But with the release of the movie “Zombieland” (which includes an all-time great cameo by Bill Murray), the breakout AMC series “The Walking Dead” and the novel and film “World War Z” ... well, it seems like zombies have come back from the dead (pun obviously intended) over the past few years.

Which leads me to my favorite zom-

bie moment of recent years. If you get a chance, search for “Aarlyn screams ‘Zombie Skin’” on YouTube. A clip from NBC’s “America’s Got Talent,” I watched it a few months back and then had to share with my 10-year-old daughter, and then my wife.

Their reaction to the death metal song

by Aaralyn O’Neil and her brother Izzy for Howard Stern and Co. was absolutely priceless. And should zombies someday be able to take on the appearance of cute, little 6-year-olds, heaven help us all.

He has headlined shows for sold-out audiences across the country and

performed with comedians like Joan Rivers, Jeff Foxworthy, Jim Gaffigan, Frank Caliendo, Joel McHale and more.

Stubbs is one of a rare breed of comedians whose comedy is not only very funny, but also family friendly.

His hilarious and clean humor earned him a loyal following on the radio as the voice of “The Stubbs

Show” and resulted in his receiving the Best Radio Personality award eight consecutive years from the Utah Broadcaster’s Association.

His energy and ability to interact with his audience paired with his unique take on life and current events have taken him to prestigious events such as the Boston International Comedy Festival,

The Calgary Comedy Festival, performing for athletes at the 2002 Winter Olympics, and most recently, the Governor’s Ball where he performed for the likes of Gov. Gary Herbert and Sen. Orrin Hatch, among others.

Also performing will be local comedians Mike Grover and Spence Roper, who host and produce the show.

Utah State hosts ‘A Catered Affair’ beginning Oct. 29 The musical “A Catered Affair” will open at Utah State University’s Caine Lyric Theatre at 7:30 p.m.

Tuesday, Oct. 29. The production will run nightly through Saturday, Nov. 2, with an additional matinee performance on that final day.

“The musical introduces our students and audience to the work of composer John Bucchino,” says Ken Risch, theatre department head in the Caine College of the Arts and the show’s director. “His subtle and deeply personal style pairs well with this delicate piece about a family needing to embrace change forced upon them by the death of their son who was killed while serving in Korea.”

The musical tells the story of a Bronx mother’s efforts to give her only daughter the elaborate wedding she — the mother — never had and her daughter never asked for. “A Catered Affair” is based on the book by Harvey Fierstein with music and lyrics

by John Bucchino.

Risch said the cast of “A Catered Affair” feels strongly that although the play is set in 1953, the issues confronting the family are universal and highly relevant.

“It’s touching, very human and takes the audience on a journey that is often heartbreaking but ultimately heartwarming,” Risch says.

Tickets for “A Catered Affair” are $18 adults, $15 seniors and youths, $10 USU faculty and staff and free for USU students with ID. For more information or tickets, contact the Caine College of the Arts Box Office in room 139-B of the Chase Fine Arts Center on USU’s campus, call 797-8022 or visit arts.usu. edu.

Redford goes it alone in stirring ‘All Is Lost’

By Jake Coyle AP Film Writer

What floats your boat?

Do you like your movies with dialogue, multiple characters, complex story lines — you know, stuff? Or can a film without the benefit of such things fill your sails?

J.C. Chandor’s second film, “All Is Lost,” starring Robert Redford, is typically characterized by what it isn’t. There’s little in the way of backstory.

There’s only one character. And he generally doesn’t talk.

There is a man at sea, an old man. And that is about it. Hemingway’s tale is a garish soap opera by comparison.

We know little about our unnamed man (Redford). We’re

‘Gravity’ stays atop the box office for third week NEW YORK (AP) — Star power and Oscar aspirations are reigning at the box office, where the space adventure “Gravity” and the Somali pirate docudrama “Captain Phillips” are holding off all comers.

With $31 million over the weekend according to studio estimates Sunday, “Gravity” topped the box office for the third straight week, cementing its status as the juggernaut of the fall moviegoing season. It also took in another $33.5 million overseas.

The 3-D Warner Bros. movie, staring Sandra Bullock and George Clooney, has now made more than $170 million in three weeks. The film’s groundbreaking visuals have been particularly popular on IMAX screens, where it made an “Avatar”-like $7.4 million on the weekend.

“Captain Phillips,” starring Tom Hanks and directed by Paul Greengrass, also held in second place, taking in $17.3 million in its second week.

The Sony film slid only 33 percent from its debut last weekend of $25.7 million.

The two movies and their veteran stars were able to keep three new wide releases at bay: the horror remake “Carrie” ($17 million for Sony and MGM), the Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger action flick “Escape Plan” ($9.8 million for Lionsgate), and the WikiLeaks drama “The Fifth Estate.”

The last utterly flopped — a fate predicted by its subject, WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange — taking in a paltry $1.7 million for Disney. It’s the worst debut this year for a film in such wide release (1,769 theaters).

Nasty people doing nasty things to each other — that just about summarizes the experience “The Counselor” offers its audience. It’s a lurid world of philosophizing criminals who think themselves smarter than they are. It’s a perfect mirror of the movie itself.

“The Counselor” isn’t dull by any means, but it thinks itself far too clever for its own good.

At the head of this putrid bunch of smartly dressed ne’er-dowells is the Counselor (Michael Fassbender).

He’s never actually given a name throughout the film, instead the people he meets along the way simply know him by his occupation: lawyer.

Just as vague as the Counselor’s existence is the film’s purpose. Here’s this man who drives a Bentley, travels the world to buy expensive diamonds for his would-be fiancée, and has impeccable taste in men’s clothing — but who’s also in dire straits financially.

At least I think so. The movie isn’t too straightforward about that aspect

THE LIVING DEAD T

Participants in the third annual Zombie Walk head down Main Street last Friday night.

Story by Kevin Opsahl — Photographs by John Zsiary

he morbid-looking corpses — some carrying babies, a human leg or tools — strode down Logan’s Main Street last week in hopes of terrorizing the evening rush hour.

And it was all for a good cause — the Cache Community Food Pantry.

“I’m hungry for flesh! I just crave human brains,” said Brian Weller, who participated in the event for the first time with his wife, Kelsey.

“The flesh is just a way to get to the brain; the brain is really the juiciest part. If you eat someone else’s brain, you inherit their intelligence.”

The food pantry, in partnership with the Logan Downtown Alliance, hosted the third annual Zombie Walk last Friday. Cache Valley residents met on Federal Avenue and posed for portraits in their best zombie garb outside of the Italian Place before heading south on Main Street, where they ended up feasting on pizza at The Factory Pizzeria. Their “ticket” to participate was a donation of food to the Cache Community Food Pantry.

According to Matt Whittaker, director of the food pantry, the zombies put aside the desire to satisfy their own hunger by devouring human brains, and instead put in about 867 pounds of food at this year’s event. Last year, zombies brought in about 500 pounds of food.

“I feel great; I think it’s awesome that this is turning into an annual event and is growing in popularity,” Whittaker said.

Gary Saxton, director of the Downtown Alliance, said 77 zombies participated in this year’s Zombie Walk.

Saxton said the walk is modeled after similar events around the country where people dress up as

zombies around Halloween and donate to a good cause.

“Zombies don’t eat food, I guess,” Saxton laughed, when asked why they picked zombies and the food pantry as a cause. “It’s just supposed to be a fun Halloween event.”

This was Brian and Kelsey Weller’s first time participating in the Zombie Walk. Brian was in full makeup with a sport coat, cut-off trousers and a loosened tie, while Kelsey donned a Sunday dress — they resembled a zombie couple going to church.

“It was kind of last minute; we were deciding whether or not to go, we got off work, went to the DI, found some costumes, ripped them

up and put on some make-up,” Kelsey said in an interview before the walk.

Some people consider Halloween to be the “devil’s holiday,” and don’t celebrate, but the Weller’s don’t see it that way. “(Halloween) is almost tied with

Christmas; everyone gets really creative and it’s fun to watch,” Brian said. “Everybody likes to fantasize about the end of the world, and say, ‘Could I survive the zombie apocalypse? Yes, I could,’ pulling a Brad Pitt.”

Brie Corrington, who works at

Nibley Children’s Theatre, wanted to do latex zombie makeup with her kids, but didn’t have time. This was her first time participating in the zombie walk, as well.

“I think Halloween is one of the best and most unique American holidays, and it’s just for fun,” she said.

Perhaps the most frightening zombie of them all was 11-year-old Gage Dreiling, who spent more than an hour with his father putting on makeup: green paint covering his face, lots of fake blood, fake teeth and a plastic human leg.

“It’s a lot of fun and I scare people most of the time,” Dreiling said with a laugh. “Earlier when I wasn’t fully dressed, I scared somebody, and she jumped and ran off. I usually make people run away a lot .… I’m fascinated by zombies, but I don’t know why. I thought this would be fun, and I wanted to dress up again.”

Come and join us for a night of laughter, excitement and fun as The Sky High Players present their latest production “Limitless Possibilities.”

Hell hath no fury like a lawyer scorned.

“You must never, ever repeat a word from last night,” Johnny Carson told Henry Bushkin after sobering up from a barstool confessional. Bushkin gave a lawyerly assurance to “The Tonight Show” host, saying in part, “I would lose my license if during your lifetime I repeated it to a soul.”

‘Bad Grandpa’ shows ‘Jackass’ still spry LOS ANGELES (AP) — If the “Jackass” movies have always spit exuberantly in the face of age and mortality, it’s fitting that co-creators Johnny Knoxville, Spike Jonze and Jeff Tremaine have now given us one devoted to Knoxville’s octogenarian alter ego, Irving Zisman. Strangely touching, too, given that the “Jackass” boys are all in their 40s now and still throwing caution to the wind.

Strapping a loose narrative framework onto the series’ patented stunts and candidcamera gags, “Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa” shows there’s still comic life in this decade-old franchise — provided, of course, the sight of a senior citizen getting his penis caught in a vending machine is the kind of thing that brings a smile to your face.

Originally introduced during the final season of “Jackass” on MTV, the Zisman character

has been a mainstay ever since, sometimes paired with Jonze’s nonagenarian prostitute character Gloria for maximum elder-care chaos. In “Bad Grandpa,” Irving’s family is fleshed out to include a crack-addict daughter (Georgina Kates), who, on the verge of returning to prison, tasks Irving with transporting his 8-yearold grandson (Jackson Nicoll) to the boy’s deadbeat father (Greg Harris) in North Carolina.

That’s the “plot” as far as it goes, which is really just a device for putting Knoxville and the cherubic, foul-mouthed Nicoll in a car together and letting them wreak their inspired havoc across state lines. A couple of the movie’s best and most outrageous payoffs come right up front, when Irving enlists a couple of unwitting furniture movers to help him load the corpse of the late Mrs. Zisman (Catherine Keener) into his car, then tries to circumvent the road

sustained a piece of work as the earlier “Jackass” pics, and it can even seem tame in light of the more outrageous bits in “Borat” and “Bruno” — perhaps a sign that Knoxville et al. are ever so slightly maturing. Too much of the film gets bogged down in Irving making lewd passes at uninterested younger women (and one possibly interested drive-thru attendant), but even at its low ebb, the movie AP Photo/Paramount Pictures effuses an infectious, Johnny Knoxville, left, and Jackson Nicoll star in “Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa,” released mischief-making joy. today by Paramount Pictures and MTV Films.

So is there enough here? Chandor has slimmed down the story so much that one hungers for a few more layers. But if “All Is Lost” can feel underwhelming, it also resonates upon reflection. The movie’s unadorned, unsentimental imagery lodges within as a stark symbol of striving.

The feeling of doom, whether personal or planetary, is today pervasive. But “All Is Lost,” in the end, is a stirring, repudiation of its own title.

“All Is Lost,” a Lionsgate release, is rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America for “brief strong language.” Running time: 107 minutes.

Book Continued from Page 11 friends with his wife’s ex-husband, about a couple that raises their niece after a car crash kills her mother and about a woman with short-term memory loss who runs a marathon with her boyfriend. In one story, a mother and daughter, both soldiers, talk about growing closer when they are deployed to Iraq together. In another, siblings, one transgender and the other gay, talk about how they’ve supported each other.

Given that the book is a 10-year anniversary collection, it might have been nice to include the first story the project recorded, or at least one from the first day. As it is, the stories in the new book date back only to 2007. Still, what’s included is sweet and sad, heartwarming and watery-eye inducing. It’s the kind of book that gives you the urge to call up someone important in your life, just to say hi.

“Logan Canyon’s Fall Magic”

“My Thoughts”

By DeVonna Bagley

By William Humphrey

Oh, the beauty of God’s mountains, So majestic as they stand, Hovering o’er the great Cache Valley, Like a marching, heavenly band.

‘Tis the season of bright colors, Trees all dressed in vibrant hue, Mixed among the stately pine trees, Orange, red and gold and view.

Just a ride up through the canyon, Choice experience, I must say, Striking beauty in all directions, Almost takes your breath away.

God has truly used a paintbrush, So creative, so carefully done, Just for us, His precious children, Let us praise Him, everyone!

“Fallen Leaves”

By Marilyn Nash Hill What gaiety What rapture And yet they are dead — Why is it they stir my soul?

Hundreds and thousands of lost dead leaves But they dance, even dead, in the breeze

Why is it they tumble and roll?

Bushkin writes that he proved himself by joining Carson, who was armed with a .38-caliber handgun, and a few others in a raid on the love nest shared by Mrs. Carson and athlete-turned-sportscaster Frank Gifford. Packing heat didn’t protect Carson’s emotions: He wept when he realized that he was indeed losing another wife.

Not that Carson had to worry about being lonely — just being careful.

Sometime around 1970 his skirt-

chasing earned him a beating from a mobster’s entourage and a contract on his life. Bushkin says some highlevel talks allowed Carson to walk the streets of New York again without fear of being killed for hitting on the wrong guy’s girl.

Family and finances were sore spots for Carson. His mercilessly cool mother remained unfazed and unappreciative of his incredible success. He had his own problems relating to his three boys. When son Rick landed in a mental hospital for two weeks, Bushkin writes, Carson refused to drive across town to visit. Pleading that the publicity would not be good for either Carson, he sent Bushkin instead.

In Bushkin’s telling, Carson was too trusting of managers and other financial advisers, making him an

easy victim of bad deals. He had other weaknesses, too. Mrs. Carson 3.0 was willing to sign a prenuptial agreement designed to protect Carson’s fortune.

But he balked at the last minute, saying it was a terrible way to start a marriage. “This romantic gesture,” his lawyer says, “would cost Johnny $35 million.”

Bushkin’s memoir adds shading and detail to the portrait of Carson already established. The master of the talk-show medium was often uncomfortable with individuals. In the right mood, he could be witty, generous and fun to be around — and, in a flash, turn cruel and cold. Late-night TV’s naughty Midwesterner was also a roving husband, unpredictable when drunk, a four-pack-a-day smoker prone to obscenity-laden rants. When

he drove a car he usually carried a handgun for protection, the book says.

Carson fired Bushkin over a business matter, the lawyer says, and litigation ensued. All these years later Bushkin seems torn between reveling in their friendship and taking an opportunity to get even. He tries to absolve himself of wielding a literary dagger by imagining that Carson, who he says was suspicious of flattery and sentimentality, would have been happy with this book because it’s accurate.

Imagine instead that self-serving statement in the hands of one of Carson’s late-night characters, Carnac the Magnificent. The envelope he tears open might well reveal this answer: “Fat chance.”
